Early detection of mismatches between your API specs and implementation: Exploring Specmatic’s API Coverage Report

Feature Spotlight, Updates / By Jaydeep Kulkarni / API Coverage Report, Contract Driven Development, OpenAPI

The report lists all the endpoints, their coverage, and indicates if they are missing in the spec or not implemented in the application. You can define success criteria for the API coverage report and fix issues.

Once the expectations are set, we no longer need the database for our tests!
