In this hands-on workshop, you'll build an AI-powered API Test Agent from scratch. You'll learn about the making of an agent, and get some upgrades on your testing skills.


Everybody's talking about agents. Let's stop talking and build one! And while we're at it, make it useful!

In this hands-on workshop, you'll move beyond the buzz and build an AI-powered API Test Agent from scratch.

Our agent does a few things, with the aid of LLMs:

  • Generate ideas for test cases for a list of APIs
  • Prioritize which test cases to run first
  • Generate the test code
  • Run the tests
  • Validate the response
  • Report the results

By the end, you won’t just walk away with the knowledge of how to build an agent, you'll have seriously leveled-up your API testing skills.

So, let's build your first agent, shall we?
