No, you cannot automate testing of web services solely using Selenium as its’ designed to automate testing of a web browser. To automate testing of web services you need to go for tools like:
- Postman
- SoapUI
- REST Assured, etc. to facilitate automating of web services testing.
If you are eager to learn Selenium from its basic to advanced level and get certified in the same, then I would recommend you to take up Intellipaat’s Selenium training course which includes 72hrs of projects and exercises which guides you through real-life industry-wide problems along with 45hrs of online training that is instructor-led.
Also, do watch our YouTube video on Selenium Automation Tutorial to have a better insight into this domain.
