Running test plan with tests containing files

I want to test an endpoint of an API that upload apk files.
I am inserting the files into the requisitions manually. Is there a way to automate this to run my test plan only once?!

Certainly! To automate the process of uploading APK files for testing an API endpoint, you can use tools like Postman or cURL along with scripting languages such as Python or Bash. This will allow you to run your test plan with minimal manual intervention. Additionally, you can use a continuous integration (CI) tool like Jenkins to schedule and automate the execution of your test plan.

For example, in Python, you can use the requests library to send HTTP requests to the API endpoint. Here’s a basic script outline:

pythonCopy code

import requests

url = "your_api_endpoint_url"
file_path = "path/to/your/app.apk"

headers = {
    "Content-Type": "multipart/form-data",
    "Authorization": "Bearer your_access_token"  # If authentication is required
}

files = {"file": ("your_app_name.apk", open(file_path, "rb"))}

response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, files=files)

if response.status_code == 200:
    print("File uploaded successfully")
else:
    print("Error uploading file. Status code:", response.status_code)
    print("Response:", response.text)

Remember to replace “your_api_endpoint_url”, “path/to/your/app.apk”, “your_access_token”, and “your_app_name.apk” with your actual values.

Now, regarding the keyword “FM WhatsApp,” it seems unrelated to your question about automating API testing.
