Jikken – open-source API testing supporting source control and CI/CD
Greetings, What is Jikken? Jikken is an open source CLI tool for automated API testing, built in Rust! The tool was originally developed to help validate complex data APIs used for analytics dashboards while integrating well with source control and CI/CD platforms. When troubleshooting API endpoints, I found my team either messing with gluing cURL/JQ/Diff together, or writing JavaScript in tools like Postman to accomplish essentially the same thing. My goal was a CLI tool which read small test definitions and could execute them seamlessly from both a local machine or in a…

We built a tool that automatically generates API tests2022 · stepci.com · ▲108Hi, this is Mish and Sebastian. We are working on Step CI - a fully automated API testing platform for developers. Step CI works programming-language independent and for different API paradigms (REST, GraphQL, XML). Our CLI and test runner are available on GitHub (https://github.com/stepci) under the MPLv2 license. Since our last launch, Step CI is now able to generate automated tests for your API based on your OpenAPI (Swagger) spec. This saves you a lot of time as you never have to write and maintain your tests again! We would like to invite you to try our tool and give us…
Open-source cypress for back end testing2023 · github.com · ▲22For the past few months we’ve been building a simple jest/typescript-based high-level language for writing and running integration tests. We're open-sourcing it now and are excited to share it with you: https://github.com/traceloop/jest-opentelemetry Why we built this: - There are many solid frameworks for FE / browser testing, but none with high-level constructs for testing BE flows - We were missing a way to validate side effects for complex backend systems, especially across async queueing systems Our beta version lets you send an API call to a system and…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
