Karate for REST and GraphQL test automation

on YouTube ↗26m

" summary

Karate is an open source API test DSL that validates deeply nested JSON from GraphQL and REST using readable keywords (url request method match) and flexible assertions like a not null placeholder for unpredictable IDs and timestamps. It includes mocks and Gatling integration so existing functional scenarios can be rerun as load tests, produces HTML reports with inline HTTP request/response, supports parallel execution, can call Java for custom logic, and offers browser automation via Chrome/Puppeteer or WebDriver.
