Karate Labs is an open-source test automation platform designed to simplify API testing, API performance testing, API mocking, and UI testing. It enables users to write tests more efficiently, reducing code and accelerating test execution.
Key Features:
- Unified Platform: Combines API, performance, mocks, and UI testing in one framework.
- Low-Code Approach: Simplifies test creation, making it accessible to non-programmers.
- API Assertions: Low-code schema matching for API validation.
- End-User Workflows: Designed to chain API calls and user actions.
- Data-Driven Testing: Supports looping and CSV file usage for data-driven tests.
- Parallel Execution: Offers faster test execution compared to single-threaded approaches.
- Java Interop: Allows testing of DB calls, async operations, gRPC, and Kafka.
- Re-use as Performance Tests: Enables reusing API tests as performance tests.
Use Cases:
- API Testing: Validating API functionality and responses.
- API Performance Testing: Ensuring APIs meet performance requirements.
- API Mocking: Simulating API behavior for testing purposes.
- UI Testing: Automating web browser interactions.
- Integration Testing: Verifying interactions between different components.
- Test Automation: Automating repetitive testing tasks to improve efficiency.
