💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Importing the wrong module like unittest or requests.

Forgetting to import pytest before writing tests.

We use pytest to write and run tests in Python. Importing it allows us to use its features.

Complete the code to send a GET request using the requests library.

PyTest

response = requests.[1]('https://api.example.com/data')

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using post or put instead of get for retrieving data.

Misspelling the method name.

To retrieve data from an API, we use the get method of the requests library.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the assertion to check the response status code is 200.

PyTest

assert response.status_code [1] 200

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

B==

C<

D>

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using != which checks for inequality.

Using > or < which are incorrect for exact match.

We want to confirm the status code equals 200, which means success. So we use ==.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to check if the JSON response contains a key 'name' and its value is not empty.

PyTest

data = response.json()
assert '[1]' in data and data['[2]'] != ''

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Aname

Bid

Cemail

Dstatus

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using different keys in the two blanks.

Checking keys that do not exist in the response.

We check if the key name exists and its value is not an empty string.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a test function that sends a GET request, checks status code 200, and asserts the response contains a 'success' key with value True.

PyTest

def test_api_response():
    response = requests.[1]('https://api.example.com/status')
    assert response.status_code [2] 200
    assert response.json().get('[3]') is True

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Aget

B==

Csuccess

Dpost

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'post' instead of 'get' for the request.

Using wrong comparison operators in assertions.

Checking for a wrong key in the JSON response.

The test sends a GET request, asserts the status code equals 200, and checks that the JSON response has a 'success' key with value True.
