Abstract
Techniques are provided for updating, managing, and maintaining a reference template for web service API testing. A plurality of logs, corresponding to a target application that provides one or more web services, may be captured. The captured logs may be filtered using information (e.g., URL extension) in the captured logs. Each filtered log may be parameterized and API request payload data may be extracted to generate a baseline template. A reference template may be compared with a corresponding baseline template to determine if they differ. If they differ, a test template may be generated by replacing each differing field of the reference template with a corresponding baseline template identifier. The test template may then be used in testing a web service API, such that a test template can conform with a changing web service API.
