- In this video cypress tutorial for beginners, We are going to learn perform REST API Testing with cypress.
Cypress API Testing can be done with the following method cy.request given with the cypress modules.
As we know that, Cypress is a JavaScript test automation solution for web applications.
It enables teams to create web test automation scripts.
This solution aims to enable frontend developers and test automation engineers to write web tests in the de-facto web language that is JavaScript.
Cypress also supports the Mocha test framework so the core technologies in which you would develop your web test automation are Java Script on top of Mocha.
It is a test automation tool that enables developers to automate web browser testing.
The Selenium WebDriver protocol enables sending commands in various development languages like Java, Java Script, C#, Python, and others from the test environment (IDEs) to a selected desktop browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari).

Thank you very much for a great video, wish you luck and a lifetime of happiness! :)
Hi Tutor, Thank u so such for the video, just wanted to ask about how to connect DB using cypress.
Could you please teach us api automation with Cypress using page object model. How to get token from sign up and how to use in other api's.
HI sir can you please teach us how to automate authenticated api's in Cypress using page object model. Can you please show us an example in which you get (return token) token from sign up POST api and use it in some other class or page for next api. I am able to get that token on same page in same class but facing issue when trying to get on some other class/page.
Your videos are great, thanks so much
Glad you like them!
Thank you very much! What would you say if I want to use Cypress for UI and API testing. Can I have only one framework with API and UI tests? Or do you recommend using Jest for API and Cypress for UI tests in the same framework? Thanks.
well sir
Hello, thanks for the tutorial, I need help on oauth 2.0 authentication with cypress. Can you show how to do that?
This should help - auth0.com/blog/end-to-end-testing-with-cypress-and-auth0/#Writing-tests-using-Cypress-Login-Command
Thank you.
WHere do we specify the authorization with the call in cypress ?
Hi, I have a doubt, can you help me?
So, I need to make a POST request but the API that I'm using need a API key. How to put this API key on cypress? I need this command :/
Good evening to you, Please I am trying to test the api rest of the backend of an application with cucumber and cypress. I would like to have the procedure to follow, I am blocked since two weeks on it.
Can we add a XML file as form data in cypress and how to dynamically change the XML files.for diff request diff form data XML.file?
what are the benefits of using this over postman? as I see you have postman open too.
With code you have more freedom to perform API Testing and You can avoid limitation of Postman
Sample e.g if you want to decode/encode the OAuth token for ur request header(base 64, SHA algorithms), it's easy to do it from code but from postman it's manual work
Many more advantageous. Postman is to check any new api not good for complete API automation
@@TheTestingAcademy what is the limitation of postman
Thank you for the tutorial. I have a doubt:
I can get the body for the entire response using cy.log(response.body.data) if I am using the endpoint used by you in the video.
However, if I use my applications endpoint, then I don't get data in the response. I get object like this:
object{4}
id:2898
name: "xyz"
mail me at contact@thetestingacademy.com
how to validate response against database ?
Can guide for SSO login authorization where fir particular user token is generated and cookie is set to perform further operation once logged in through cypress how to automate this scenario
HI, Thanks for the video, I'm new to Cypress, just want to know, how can I get a value from a POST response (Save as a variable) and pass it as a parameter in another service (GET) ?
Here is a small code snippet that may help. I am new to Cypress and I had a similar question as you. To solve it I made a variable called 'fileId' which equals the value of 'response.body[0].id' so that value could be a number like '25'. I then add the value of '25' onto then end of my POST request lower down. You will see the POST request contains the url AND the fileId variable. So it would actually be /api/file/securitycontrol/25. Hope that makes sense
.then((response) => {
let fileId = response.body[0].id
cy.request({
method: 'POST',
url: '/api/file/securitycontrol/' + fileId,

How can we maintain POJOS in cypress for request/response serialisation and de-serialisation?
Why You want to maintain pojo, You can use jsons directly

I had try but was it impossible to use outside of that function : /
You can use in a global variable and create a callback when response.body is available then call your other function
@@TheTestingAcademy Can you please post an example of storing one element of json in a varialbe.
you can also chain .then promises
Please increase the volume while recording , it is too less
