Good day, sir! I'm getting back to some automated tests with python after, well, 4 years. I have to say - this video is a great refresher for me. Thank you.

[DilyaraGedrimene]

This is a great work! I would recommend the course to everyone and I would like to see more videos like this from the author

This is wonderful sir
This is what I am exactly searching for to automate the API testing but I didn't find any videos except this..all the while I am thinking of markers, fixtures, parametrizing..glad my sleepless night didn't go futile..
thank you so much

Great video! I'm actually struggling with testing APIs for productive systems where I can't create or delete test resources. Are you planning on doing a video with Mocking? 😇
Keep up the amazing work!

I have a config.json file with a list of scenarios I wish to test, is there a way I can easily create tests for each scenario?

Great video, just wanted to check how are you getting the auto suggestion of snippets in your tests? which extension is that? Thank You.

Hey, thanks for the video, do you think designing a framework in POM design pattern is a good idea for this? I am getting confused what to put in different pages and test files as the requests are dependant on each other.

I'm getting back into testing APIs and am using TestCafe with Javascript while following along with your video. Is it safe to assume the /update-task/ endpoint is incorrect in being a put rather than a patch? Also that it doesn't take in an existing task_id to update? With it being a put and no existing task to reference, we're just creating a new task, right?

[lawrencechandrasekar]

This is awesome to watch and understand better. Can I ask you what code snippet tool you use in vscode to populate the suggestion code? TIA.

[ipelezikis]

Great video! The code suggestions are by copilot?

[ml-techn]

Awesome content! I am data scientist working mainly with Python and PyTorch. I want to be full stack MLE, I want to be able to build applications using ML. I am wondering what I need to build end 2 end application. Which stack should I learn? Thanks a lot for your help

[DarnastTFT]

Whats the VS Code plugin that suggests "auto-complete" code after comment?

[blessycheriyan]

bro, I have one doubt regarding in creating sceneario u have applied put request, Im right ? but actually Is it post in that case right?

[clownboy]

I'm stuck behind corporate firewall. I can get to the todo from browser but not via python. I tried setting proxy etc. still no dice. video looked good ut I got stuck unfortunately

[NikhilKumar-tuiy]

Why are we using PUT instead of the POST to create a new task?
