SmartAPI
SmartAPI is RabbitQA's intelligent API automation testing module, designed to simplify API testing with AI-powered test generation and comprehensive endpoint management.
info
Coming Soon SmartAPI is currently in development. This documentation provides a preview of upcoming features.
What is SmartAPI?
SmartAPI transforms API testing by combining:
- AI-Powered Test Generation - Automatically generate test cases from API specifications
- Visual Request Builder - No-code interface for API testing
- Smart Assertions - AI-suggested validations based on response patterns
- Contract Testing - Ensure API contracts are maintained
Key Features
Intelligent Test Generation
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| OpenAPI Import | Auto-generate tests from Swagger/OpenAPI specs |
| Postman Import | Import existing Postman collections |
| AI Suggestions | Smart test case recommendations |
| Edge Case Detection | Automatic boundary testing |
Request Builder
Build and execute API requests visually:
- HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE)
- Headers and authentication
- Request body (JSON, XML, Form Data)
- Query parameters
- Environment variables
Response Validation
| Validation Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Status Code | Verify HTTP status codes |
| JSON Schema | Validate response structure |
| Field Values | Assert specific field values |
| Response Time | Performance thresholds |
| Headers | Header presence and values |
