Web Services Actions

Introduction

As a complete scriptless automation testing platform, Qualitia helps testing RESTFul APIs. Executing API service requires few header parameters to be set before initialization of the service. Qualitia gives you provision to set all the header parameters centrally in the restgenericheaders.properties file. This makes managing all the header parameters easy at single place.

You will find this file at Qualitia installed location (%localAppData%/QualitiaWDClient > app-6.0.0 > WebDriver > config).

For information about setting these parameters for executing test cases using Qualitia offline package, refer to the Configuring Generic Headers for API Actions section.

REST.Request.RemoveGenericHeaders

This action helps you skip the generic headers you set in the restgenericheaders.properties file. 

Input Parameters:

Parameter NameParameter DescriptionMandatoryData Types
HeaderKey

Enter the header key which you want to skip from the the restgenericheaders.properties file.

YesString

Example:

REST.Request.RemoveGenericHeaders                 "Content-type"

REST.Request.ResetGenericHeaders

This action helps you reset the generic headers which you have skipped earlier in the test case. The sequence of this action must be set post REST.Request.RemoveGenericHeaders.

This action does not have any parameters.

Example:

REST.Request.ResetGenericHeaders

REST.Request.SetHeaders

This action stores key value pair of the header under specified variable (HeaderLable). Headers stored under the variable then can be used later in the test case using the HeaderLable (variable name).

You may store multiple headers using test data. This action must be used before executing API service.

Headers set using this action will override the headers set in the restgenericheaders.properties file. 

Input Parameters:

Parameter NameParameter DescriptionMandatoryData Types
HeaderLableEnter the variable name under which you want to store the key=value pair of the header.YesString
HeaderKey

Enter the header key which you want to set for the API service to be executed.

YesString
HeaderValueEnter the value for the key set above.YesString

Example:

REST.Request.SetHeaders                 "H1"                   "If-Match"                        "a8f34"

REST.Request.SetHeaders                 "H2"                   "accept"                        "application/xml"

(info) Final Output: While considering H2 as a header label, system will override the values provided (accept=application/xml) in the earlier action (REST.SetGenericHeader) while executing the API service

REST.Request.SetQueryParameters

This action helps you set query parameters for the API service you want to execute. Query parameters you set here are applicable only for the API service you use in the step followed by this action. 

You may set multiple query parameters using test data. This action must be used before executing API service.

Input Parameters:

Parameter NameParameter DescriptionMandatoryData Types
QueryKey

Enter the key which you want to set for the API service to be executed.

YesString
QueryValueEnter the value for the key set above.YesString

Example:

REST.Request.SetQueryParameters                          "draftId"                        "1031143439"

REST.Request.ClearQueryParameters

This action clears the query parameters you set earlier in the test case. If you are using more than one web service actions in a single test case, it is important to clear query parameters set earlier (if any) using this action, else, step may fail.

This action does not have any parameters.

Example:

REST.Request.ClearQueryParameters
