Use for questions regarding Karate, an open-source tool that combines API test-automation, mocks, performance-testing and UI automation - into a single, unified framework.
Karate is the only open-source tool that combines API test-automation, mocks, performance-testing and UI automation into a single, unified framework.
Karate uses a language-neutral BDD syntax, which is easy for even non-programmers. Besides powerful JSON & XML assertions, you can run tests in parallel for speed - which is critical for HTTP API testing.
You can easily build (or re-use) complex request payloads, and dynamically construct more requests from response data. The payload and schema validation engine can perform a 'smart compare' (deep-equals) of two JSON or XML documents, and you can even ignore dynamic values where needed.
Test execution and report generation feels like any standard Java project. But there's also a stand-alone executable for teams that are not comfortable with Java. Just write tests in a simple, readable syntax - carefully designed for HTTP, JSON, GraphQL and XML.
