SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Hono testClient and OpenAPI contract verification are used to build API tests and ensure endpoint contracts are guarded with minimal mocking.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Contract-driven API testing using Hono's testClient to verify requests and responses against the OpenAPI spec.
  • OpenAPI contract verification to detect contract drift during development and CI.
  • Minimal mocks to validate contract behavior without full server implementations.

Quick Start

Run a basic API contract test against your OpenAPI spec using the provided test scaffolding.

FAQPage Schema
How do I test API endpoints against an OpenAPI specification?

To test API endpoints against an OpenAPI specification, you can use contract-driven testing to verify requests and responses. This approach validates endpoint behavior directly using Hono's testClient without needing a full server implementation.

What is OpenAPI contract testing and how does it detect contract drift?

OpenAPI contract testing validates your API requests and responses against a defined specification to detect contract drift. It ensures endpoint contracts remain stable during development and CI pipelines by catching mismatches early.

How do I test Hono APIs with minimal mocking?

You can test Hono APIs with minimal mocking by utilizing the Hono testClient. This allows you to validate contract behavior and verify endpoint responses directly without the overhead of full server implementations.

Can I integrate API contract verification into CI pipelines for regression checks?

Yes, you can integrate API contract verification into CI pipelines for regression checks. This ensures endpoint contracts stay stable across development cycles by automatically validating API behavior against the OpenAPI spec.

Does contract testing with Hono testClient require a running server?

No, contract testing with Hono testClient does not require a running server. It uses minimal mocks to validate contract behavior and verify API requests and responses directly against your OpenAPI specification.
