ReadyAPI Now Supports Apache Kafka!

In 2006, SoapUI was initially developed with a singular goal, create a simple open source SOAP API testing tool. 

Since then, developers have contributed code and provided valuable feedback to help SmartBear transform SoapUI into ReadyAPI, the most powerful API testing platform on the market. From our humble beginnings, we have been driven to turn ReadyAPI into a testing platform that supports every specification and protocol so that no tester or developer gets left behind when it comes to delivering quality applications.

With that vision in mind, ReadyAPI is proud to expand our support of Event-Driven Architectures (EDA) with our launch of Apache Kafka testing and a new protocol-agnostic testing experience. 

Register Now to see it in Action!

Over the past few years, there has been a movement from focusing on data at rest (service oriented architecture) to focusing on events (event-driven architecture). Organizations are now moving away from accumulating data and data lakes to focusing on data in-flight and keeping track of it while it’s moving from place to place; meaning a shift to event-driven architectures has occurred.

This is why supporting Kafka to ensure the quality of your Kafka Streams is so important!

Please join us to see a demonstration of the new functionality and to experience how easy it is to include Kafka Streams as part of your end to end tests when using ReadyAPI!

Join SmartBear’s Vyshnavi Dabbir and Yousaf Nabi for a live session on the moment your API testing stops matching what’s running in production, and what to do before that gap becomes an outage. On September 15, 2026, we’ll walk through why 63% of APIs drift from their tested behavior within 90 days, the specific failure patterns behind most real-world breakdowns, and how testing

Same Spec, Zero Drift: ​Keeping API Tests in Sync with AI and MCP​

The challenge  Your OpenAPI spec changes on a Tuesday. Your test suite finds three sprints later, usually in production.  That gap between what your API actually does and what your tests assume it does is the sync gap. It is expensive. 41% of APIs drift within 30 days, and teams still lose a quarter to half of their QA capacity just keeping test suites current

As developers build and release APIs faster in an Agentic AI assisted world, many enterprises are having to reshape existing API testing to ensure their APIs don’t lose quality and scale. Existing functional tests and unit tests may not suffice in identifying API quality introduced via agentic development.  ReadyAPI’s performance test module can build an extensive test suite based off existing infrastructure to capture minute slow-downs or bottlenecks. By building these tests into
