Boost API Testing with AI: My Hands-On with Keploy Chrome Extension ๐Ÿš€

As part of the API Fellowship, I explored the Keploy Chrome Extension โ€“ a powerful tool that auto-generates API tests using real-time browser actions. No code needed!


๐ŸŒ Tested Websites


โš™๏ธ How I Used It

  1. Installed the Chrome Extension
  2. Hit โ€œStart Recordingโ€
  3. Browsed and searched as usual
  4. Hit โ€œStopโ€ to view/export the captured APIs as YAML

Captured data includes:

  • Request & response bodies
  • Headers, payloads, and status
  • Real user flows

๐Ÿค– Why It's Game-Changing

Manual Testing Keploy AI Testing
Tedious setup Instant test gen
Risky coverage Real user paths
Slow feedback Dev-speed testing

๐Ÿ’ก My Takeaways

  • Works out of the box
  • Speeds up testing dramatically
  • Perfect for shift-left and CI/CD pipelines
