Target audience

The course is for anyone in test- or development teams, who wants to be involved in designing, developing, and testing services, as well as supporting a structured and automated approach using the Postman tool. No prior knowledge of similar tools is required but a basic knowledge of web services can be an advantage – but not a requirement.
