Design, debug, and test APIs like a human, not a robot. Finally, a workflow you'll love. The Collaborative API Design Tool for designing, testing and managing OpenAPI specifications. The Desktop API client for REST and GraphQL. Make requests, inspect responses. Quickly create and group requests, specify environment variables, authentication, generate code snippets, and more. Get all the details on responses. View the whole request timeline, status codes, body, headers, cookies, and more. Create workspaces, folders, environments, drag-and-drop requests, and easily import and export your data. Create, edit, lint, debug, preview, and manage all of your OpenAPI specs in one collaborative API design editor. Generate configuration for common API gateways such as the Kong API Gateway, and Kong for Kubernetes. Sync your API designs with source control such as Github / Gitlab, and deploy directly to API Gateways such as Kong with one click.

An API Monitoring (Runscope) API test is a group of one or more HTTP requests executed sequentially to evaluate the uptime, performance and correctness of an API. For each step in the test, you can define Assertions to validate response data and Variables to extract data to be used in subsequent requests. A test Passes if all the assertions pass. A test Fails if any assertion fails, or another error is encountered, such as a network connection problem. Your customers shouldn’t be the ones telling you about downtime and breakages. Runscope supports the notification tools you already use, like PagerDuty, Slack, HipChat, email, webhooks and more. Proactively monitor service performance to quickly catch and debug API problems fast. Stay ahead of intermittent failures before they become major issues with the API Dashboard and daily API Performance Report. Verify that the structure and content of your API calls meets your expectations. Powerful and flexible assertions give you total control.
