Application programming interface may be a function or
procedure which is called by the source by passing values
to the same.

Let us take CRM, TIBCO and ADC(Billing system)systems
When CRM sends the request to TIBCO, it will filer ADC
parameters from that and it will call ADC API by passing
CRM values into.

TC1: Check whether CRM is sending req to TIBCO or not
TC2: Check whether TIBCO is received or not
TC3: Check whether TIBCO sends request by calling so and so
API of ADC or not.
TC4: Check whether request is updated in ADC or not.
