Do I need Java for API testing?▼

Not for the Postman part. REST Assured is Java-based, so the course introduces the Java needed for it.

Does this course include AI in test automation?▼

Yes. Every Nexuspath testing course includes an AI in Test Automation module: using AI assistants to draft test cases and scripts, reviewing the output critically, and keeping tests maintainable. Our separate AI in Software Testing course goes deeper, including testing AI and LLM applications.
