## Schemathesis

> **Catch API bugs before your users do.** 

Schemathesis automatically generates thousands of test cases from your OpenAPI or GraphQL schema and finds edge cases that break your API.

  <br>
  <i>Finding bugs that manual testing missed</i>
</p>

## Try it now

```console
# Test a demo API - finds real bugs in 30 seconds
uvx schemathesis run https://example.schemathesis.io/openapi.json

# Test your own API
uvx schemathesis run https://your-api.com/openapi.json
```


## What problems does it solve?

- 💥 **500 errors** that crash your API on edge case inputs
- 📋 **Schema violations** where your API returns different data than documented
- 🚪 **Validation bypasses** where invalid data gets accepted
- 🔗 **Integration failures** when responses don't match client expectations
- 🔄 **Stateful bugs** where operations work individually but fail in realistic workflows


> ⚠️ **Upgrading from older versions?** Check our [Migration Guide](https://github.com/schemathesis/schemathesis/blob/master/MIGRATION.md) for key changes.

# Installation & Usage

**Command Line:**
```console
uv pip install schemathesis
schemathesis run https://your-api.com/openapi.json
```

**Python Tests:**
```python
import schemathesis

schema = schemathesis.openapi.from_url("https://your-api.com/openapi.json")

@schema.parametrize()
def test_api(case):
    # Tests with random data, edge cases, and invalid inputs
    case.call_and_validate()

# Stateful testing: Tests workflows like: create user -> get user -> delete user
APIWorkflow = schema.as_state_machine()
# Creates a test class for pytest/unittest
TestAPI = APIWorkflow.TestCase
```

**CI/CD:**
```yaml
- uses: schemathesis/action@v2
  with:
    schema: "https://your-api.com/openapi.json"
```

## Who uses it

Used by teams at **[Spotify](https://github.com/backstage/backstage)**, **[WordPress](https://github.com/WordPress/openverse)**, **JetBrains**, **Red Hat**, and dozens of other companies.


> "_Schemathesis is the best tool for fuzz testing of REST APIs on the market. We at Red Hat use it for examining our applications in functional and integration testing levels._" - Dmitry Misharov, RedHat
