2:00 Jump to where the actual video starts, the first 2 minutes are just noise

[mikzael]

9:01 jump here to actually see newman example, all the video prior to this only talks about what newman is and it guides you step by step of installing it, so if you want to jump to the specific part where newman is actually used then start here.

Thanks Valentin. Brilliant api & PM advocate!

[mikzael]

8:22 just to be clear, the npm install -g newman will isntall newman globally, but if you are running an existing proyect and you want to install it as a devDependency you should use npm install -D newman or npm install --save-dev newman on the root directory of your project, this will also modify your package.json

Hello Valentin, How does token generation work when we run a collection from newman? also, can we use a environment variable to replace the URL in the tests inside a collection? tdoe when I tried running my collection, it errored out! - it displayed the test name and the API call information in which it did not replace the environment variable with the actual URL. What am I doing wrong? could you please help?
test using null
POST {{env_url}}endpointName [errored]
