We operate today in a digital world that is always on and interconnected. How we live and work is now dependent on countless APIs that underpin web, mobile and cloud applications.

According to Gartner, “by 2021, at least one-third of enterprises will have deployed a multi-experience development platform to support mobile, web, conversational and augmented reality development.”

In the last decade, APIs have not only fueled a new Digital Economy, but also created an arms race of innovation that is forcing many organizations to rethink how they build and deliver new applications.

For this webinar session, we will explore the larger API trends that are shaping application development, including:

What were the challenges in 2019 organizations faced building and deploying APIs?
What’s new for APIs in 2020 and how to prepare?
Demo: API Dev best practices showing how to design, review, virtualize, develop, test and deliver an API from an integrated solution.

Same Spec, Zero Drift: Keeping API Tests in Sync with AI and MCP

Same Spec, Zero Drift: Keeping API Tests in Sync with AI and MCP

The challenge Your OpenAPI spec changes on a Tuesday. Your test suite finds three sprints later, usually in production. That gap between what your API actually does and what your tests assume it does is the sync gap. It is expensive. 41% of APIs drift within 30 days, and teams still lose a quarter to half of their QA capacity just keeping test suites current

API Performance Testing in the Age of AI-Generated Code | Webinar

As developers build and release APIs faster in an Agentic AI assisted world, many enterprises are having to reshape existing API testing to ensure their APIs don’t lose quality and scale. Existing functional tests and unit tests may not suffice in identifying API quality introduced via agentic development. ReadyAPI’s performance test module can build an extensive test suite based off existing infrastructure to capture minute slow-downs or bottlenecks. By building these tests into
