Step 1: Add API Steps to a Scenario ​

You can add API steps to your Gherkin scenarios to validate API responses and perform checks on response fields. This guide will walk you through adding an API call within a scenario using the BlinqIO API app.

Before you begin

  • Ensure that you are logged into your BlinqIO account.
  • Have a scenario ready where the API call will be added.
