API Test Automation

This repository contains a .NET 8 API test framework and Playwright UI tests...

This repository contains a .NET 8 / C# API test automation framework, built as part of ongoing QA Automation upskilling and CI/CD practice.

📌 Tech Stack

• .NET 8 / C#
• xUnit for test execution
• RestSharp (or HttpClient) for API calls
• Coverlet for code coverage
• ReportGenerator for HTML/Cobertura reporting
• GitHub Actions for CI/CD

🚀 Workflows

• CI Pipeline (api-ci.yml)
  • Restore dependencies
  • Build in Release mode
  • Run tests with coverage
  • Generate coverage report
  • Upload artifacts (test results + HTML report)

🔑 Secrets

This project reads runtime secrets from GitHub Actions → Secrets:

• API_BASE_URL → Base URL for API under test
• API_KEY → Authentication key

Secrets are consumed inside tests using:

var baseUrl = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("API_BASE_URL");
var apiKey  = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("API_KEY");
