Overview
Automatically generates Bruno (API testing tool) test collections from OpenAPI specs for smoke testing APIs. Bruno is a lightweight, open-source API testing alternative to Postman with text-based collections that can be version controlled.
Why This Matters
- Fast testing: Smoke tests in 1 minute
- Auto-generated: From OpenAPI spec
- Version control: Bruno files are text
- CI-ready: Run in pipeline
Core Concepts & Rules
1. Core Principles
- Follow established patterns and conventions
- Maintain consistency across codebase
- Document decisions and trade-offs
2. Implementation Guidelines
- Start with the simplest viable solution
- Iterate based on feedback and requirements
- Test thoroughly before deployment
Inputs / Outputs / Contracts
- Inputs:
- OpenAPI specification file (YAML/JSON)
- Endpoint definitions (alternative)
- Authentication configuration
- Environment variables
- Entry Conditions:
- OpenAPI spec is valid
- Bruno CLI is installed
- API endpoints are accessible
- Outputs:
- Bruno collection directory structure
