ReadyAPI: The All-in-One Automated API Testing Platform

Have you outgrown merely exploratory testing your API with Postman?
The ReadyAPI platform accelerates functional, security, and load testing
of RESTful, SOAP, GraphQL and other web services right inside your CI/CD pipeline.

Why choose ReadyAPI over Postman for your testing needs…

Comprehensive Testing Features
It’s no secret that developers are taking on more testing responsibilities. Which is why many are turning to ReadyAPI with its advanced functional, security, and performance testing capabilities. Adding ReadyAPI to your API developer toolkit saves you testing time by reusing your functional tests as load tests with just a click.
Simple & Flexible Test Creation
Use the point-and-click capabilities in ReadyAPI to select actions or data and immediately include them in your test suite. Or if you are looking for additional power beyond the menu selections in ReadyAPI, you can write your own JavaScript or Groovy scripts that can perform more advanced functions.
Integration with Postman
Postman is a fine start for API developers but it does not provide adequate testing capabilities to truly ensure that your API is functioning and performing correctly in production. Because of this, we’ve built out a simple integration to import Postman Collections right into ReadyAPI so you can perform the advanced tests you need.
