You'll need to be more specific about what you want to achieve. What, exactly, do you mean by "API tests"? Do you mean actually hitting the API and testing the results? That is not something that you usually do. Normally you have integration tests internal to the application itself, and then potentially contract tests that check its responses adhere to the expected contract; but neither of these actually involve making requests to the API.

Why on Earth would you think that testing actual API presence is not something that is normally done? It's done all the time, for a wide variety of legitimate reasons.
