Postman and Newman: API Testing made Easy

Come to this talk and find out how to supercharge your API testing with Postman. Topics covered include:
- A brief history of Postman (did you know it started as a chrome extension?)
- Postman and HTTP basics
- Using collections to group related requests
- Using environment variables to manage secrets and base URIs
- Automating authentication with OAuth (1 and 2)
- Testing with Postman and the Postman CLI, newman
- Using the Postman API to get real fancy: multiple related requests
- When should I _not_ use Postman, and what else can I use?

You don't need any prior postman (or web dev) experience to come to this talk, and when you leave you should feel comfortable managing basic requests and auth in Postman. This talk is aimed primarily at people who create or test APIs, though many of the concepts are helpful for general web development.
