How to Create fake REST API using Json-server and use from Postman to perform API Testing?

 


 Check below link for interview Q&A  API TESTING:
 


Fake REST APIs created using JSON Server are essential for testing purposes. They offer a valuable means of independently testing frontend applications without relying on a fully developed or available backend server. 


By defining custom routes and responses in a JSON file, developers can simulate different server responses, including success, error, and edge cases, to ensure proper handling by the frontend. These fake APIs enable the reproduction of specific scenarios that may be difficult to replicate with a real backend, such as slow network connections or specific error conditions. 


Moreover, they facilitate rapid prototyping, allowing frontend developers to start building user interfaces and interact with simulated data without waiting for the complete backend functionality. Fake REST APIs also serve to test edge cases, providing a controlled environment for assessing how the application handles unusual scenarios and ensuring optimal performance. 


Ultimately, the use of fake REST APIs with JSON Server enhances testing efficiency, isolates the testing environment, and enables comprehensive evaluation of frontend applications.

JSON Server is a simple project that helps you to setup a REST API with CRUD operations very fast. So let's learn how we can create fake rest api using json-server, It is useful for building frontend apps and for testing integration components. 

Step-1:
Download node js, refer below link:
https://nodejs.org/en/download/

Open a command prompt (or PowerShell), and enter the following:

node –v

The system should display the Node.js version installed on your system. You can do the same for NPM:

npm –v

For above two commands you should get response as below :


C:\Users>node -v
v10.16.3

C:\Users>npm -v
6.9.0



Step:2

npm install -g json-server

Step-3

Create a json file as db.json and open cmd in that path
Define the json format:
{
  "employees": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "first_name": "sidharth",
      "last_name": "shukla",
      "email": "sidharth@automationreinvented.com"
    },
    {
      "id": 2,
      "first_name": "Steve",
      "last_name": "smith",
      "email": "steve@automationreinvented.com"
    },
    {
      "id": 3,
      "first_name": "virat",
      "last_name": "kohli",
      "email": "virat@automationreinvented.com"
    }
  ]
}

Step-04:

Run the below command from command prompt
json-server --watch db.json


Step-05:

By Default it will take localhost:3000, Now we can open URL http://localhost:3000/employees in the browser

Step-06:
How to test in Postman?


Just open postman tool and ru below URI:


It's possible to extend URLs with further parameter. E.g. you can apply filtering by using URL parameters like you can see in the following:


http://localhost:3000/employees?last_name=shukla
http://localhost:3000/employees?first_name=sidharth
http://localhost:3000/employees/1

Validate the status code and response body.

Step-07:

The following HTTP endpoints are created automatically by JSON server:


GET    /employees
GET    /employees/{id}
POST   /employees
PUT    /employees/{id}
PATCH  /employees/{id} 

So all the above methods can be tested both from Postman or Rest Assured.
