Property-based testing framework for Open API and GraphQL based apps

Project description

Build codecov.io status for master branch Version Python versions Documentation Status Discord License

Schemathesis is a specification-centric API testing tool for Open API and GraphQL-based applications.

Why use Schemathesis?

  • Application crashes. Learn what payloads make your API crash, corrupt the database or hang forever.

  • Up-to-date API documentation. Never worry that your API consumers will use an incorrect specification or outdated payload example.

  • Instant debugging. Get a detailed failure report and reproduce the problem with a single command.

How does it work?

Schemathesis reads the application schema and generates test cases, which will ensure that your application is compliant with its schema and never crashes.

The application under test could be written in any language; the only thing you need is a valid API schema in a supported format.

Read more about how it works in our research paper.

How do I start?

Schemathesis is available as a service, standalone CLI, or a Python library.

The service enables you to verify your API schema in a few clicks, CLI gives more control. Schemathesis.io has a free tier, so you can combine the CLI flexibility with rich visuals by uploading your test results there.

If you use GitHub Actions, there is a native GitHub app that reports test results directly to your pull requests.

Features

  • Open API: Schema conformance, explicit examples, stateful testing;

  • GraphQL: queries generation;

  • Multi-worker test execution;

  • Storing and replaying tests;

  • ASGI / WSGI support;

  • Generated code samples (cURL, Python);

  • Docker image;

  • Customizable checks & test generation;

CLI installation

To install Schemathesis via pip run the following command:

pip install schemathesis

This command installs the st entrypoint.

You can also use our Docker image without installing Schemathesis as a Python package.

Usage

You can use Schemathesis in the command line directly:

st run --checks all https://example.schemathesis.io/openapi.json

Or via Docker:

docker run schemathesis/schemathesis:stable \
    run --checks all https://example.schemathesis.io/openapi.json
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/schemathesis/schemathesis/master/img/schemathesis.gif

Or in your Python tests:

import schemathesis

schema = schemathesis.from_uri("https://example.schemathesis.io/openapi.json")


@schema.parametrize()
def test_api(case):
    case.call_and_validate()

CLI is simple to use and requires no coding; the in-code approach gives more flexibility.

Both examples above will run hundreds of requests against the API under test and report all found failures and inconsistencies along with instructions to reproduce them.
