API Testing Services

Functional, contract, integration and performance testing for your APIs: automated, fast and running in your pipeline on every change.

Test where the logic actually lives

Most of your product’s business logic sits behind its APIs. Testing only through the UI is slow, brittle and misses the cases users can’t easily reach.

We test APIs directly: checking behaviour, contracts, error handling, security-relevant edge cases and performance under load. The result is faster feedback and far fewer surprises in integration and production.

Our API tests are automated and run in your CI/CD pipeline, so a breaking change is caught minutes after it is made, not by a partner team or a customer.

What we deliver

Complete API test coverage

Functional API testing

Automated checks of endpoints, payloads, status codes and business rules, including the unhappy paths.

Contract testing

Verifying providers and consumers agree, so changes don’t silently break dependent systems.

Performance & load testing

k6 load, stress and soak tests that show how your APIs behave before real traffic does.

Security-focused testing

Authentication, authorisation, input validation and data exposure checks built into the suite.

How we work

Fast feedback at the right layer

  1. 01

    Map the APIs

    Understand endpoints, consumers, dependencies and the risks that matter most.

  2. 02

    Automate core behaviour

    Build functional and contract tests for the critical endpoints first.

  3. 03

    Add performance

    Define realistic load profiles and thresholds, and test against them.

  4. 04

    Gate the pipeline

    Run API suites on every merge so breaking changes never reach production.

Tools we work with

We use tools that fit your stack and keep tests close to the code.

FAQs

Common questions

Why test APIs instead of just the user interface?

API tests are faster, more stable and can reach cases the UI can’t. Testing at the API layer catches most business logic defects in seconds, leaving UI tests to focus on true end-to-end journeys.

What is API contract testing?

Contract testing checks that an API and the systems that consume it agree on requests and responses. It catches breaking changes before deployment, without needing every system running together.

Can you performance test our APIs?

Yes. We use k6 to run load, stress and soak tests against realistic traffic profiles and report clearly on response times, throughput and failure points.
