System and method for automated testing of application program interface (api)

An API testing system for automated testing of an Application Program Interface (API), the API testing system comprises:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores the processor executable instructions, which, on execution, causes the processor to:
• receive a test requirement data to test an API from a first database;
• translate the test requirement data into a first set of vectors;
• select a one or more test scripts from a plurality of test scripts stored in a second database based on outputs generated using the first set of vectors provided as inputs to a trained artificial neural network, wherein the outputs are indicative of a probability of effectiveness associated with the one or more test scripts;
• and
• execute the one or more test scripts to test and validate the API.

A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions stored thereon for automated testing of an Application Program Interface (API), that when processed by at least one processor cause a device to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a test requirement data to test an API from a first database;
• translating the test requirement data into a first set of vectors;
• selecting one or more test scripts from a plurality of test scripts stored in a second database based on outputs generated using the first set of vectors provided as inputs to a trained artificial neural network, wherein the outputs are indicative of a probability of effectiveness associated with the one or more test scripts;
• and
• executing the one or more test scripts to test and validate the API.
