What are the differences between API Testing and Unit Testing?
API testing UNIT testing
This testing is owned by the Quality Analyst team. This testing is owned by the developers working on the corresponding modules.
This belongs to the category of black box testing. This belongs to white box testing.
Full system functionality is considered in API testing as the API would be used by external developers. As the name indicates, this testing verifies whether the unit of code works as expected or not in isolation.
In this testing, the testers do not have access to the internal source code and it focuses only on the functionality of the API. The developers who work on developing unit test cases have access to the source code as they need to ensure the modules developed are passed before delivery.
