API Monitoring & Testing | Datadog

API tests are a crucial part of ensuring that your applications are properly recieving and responding to user requests, and delivering a complete user experience. Datadog’s synthetic monitoring allows you to test the availability and responsiveness of every enpoint in your API. Test and monitor HTTP, gRPC, SSL, DNS, WebSocket, TCP, UDP, and ICMP APIs, all from global managed and private locations.

Datadog’s synthetic monitoring measures reply time, status code, and more, and can chain together multiple request for multistep testing. Datadog Synthetic Monitoring enables you to track how efficiently your API endpoints handle traffic at each and every step, so you can ensure that endpoints are processing incoming requests as expected.
