Some more details could have been added while explaining each type of web APIs, like some examples of each API type would really help someone understand these APIs better.

Excelente curso, es necesario saber ingles para entender, ya que el curso está en ingles y los traductores dejan bastante que desear. Me llevó el doble de tiempo del que debería, poder hacerlo y comprenderlo. Pero hablando del curso, está excelente, muy completo, lo recomiendo! Este es el comienzo de mi camino en el Testing. Muchas gracias al profesor Umer Nawab.

I have been using Postman for API testing, but have never had any training. This course gave some insight into how things are set up etc. So it was useful in that respect. Thank you Umer.
