API & Integration Testing
Your UI might look perfect, but if the API behind it returns the wrong data, drops a payment, or leaks a session token. none of that matters. We test every endpoint, every contract, and every auth flow so your backend works exactly as it should.
The layer where real bugs hide. and most teams skip it
Your payment flow looks perfect in the browser. But what happens when the API returns a 200 with an empty body? Or when an expired token still grants admin access? Or when a third-party webhook silently fails? These are the bugs that make it to production. because nobody tested the API layer properly.
We go through every endpoint in your system. REST, GraphQL, gRPC. and validate the contracts, auth flows, error handling, and data transformations that your UI tests can't see. If a microservice returns the wrong data or breaks a contract, we catch it before your users do.
Everything is automated and runs on every pull request. No one manually clicks through Postman collections. No one says "we'll add API tests later." From day one, your backend is covered.

How We Actually Work
No black box. Here's exactly what happens from the first call to a fully running test suite. and what you get at each stage.
We map every endpoint you have
First, we inventory your entire API surface. endpoints, auth mechanisms, integrations, data contracts. If you have Swagger or OpenAPI specs, we use those as the baseline. If not, we create the documentation as we go.
We design tests that go beyond happy paths
For every endpoint, we build test cases covering success scenarios, error conditions, boundary values, security checks, and edge cases. Each test is mapped to a requirement for full traceability.
We mock your dependencies so tests run fast
Third-party APIs like Stripe or Twilio shouldn't slow your tests or charge you money. We set up mock servers so your suite runs fast, reliably, and independently of external services.
We automate everything into your pipeline
We build the full suite in Postman/Newman, Python, or REST Assured. whichever fits your stack. and wire it into your CI/CD pipeline. Tests run on every PR, every push, every deploy.
We add contract tests between your services
If you run microservices, we implement consumer-driven contract tests using Pact. This means each team can deploy independently without worrying about breaking another service's integration.
We monitor and catch regressions automatically
After setup, we configure API monitoring with alert thresholds. Any regression in response time, error rate, or schema compliance triggers an immediate notification to your team.
