Recipe
Smoke test generator from API docs
Turn your OpenAPI spec into a runnable smoke test suite in under 60 seconds.
Ingredients
- OpenAPI 3.x spec (JSON or YAML)
- Meridian CLI v2.4+
- Target environment base URL
Steps
- Feed the spec.
meridian smoke init --spec ./openapi.yaml - Set the target.
meridian smoke target https://staging.api.example.com - Generate the suite. Meridian walks every endpoint, extracts happy-path params, and writes a test per route.
- Run it.
meridian smoke run
Output
A smoke/ directory with one file per endpoint. Each test asserts a 2xx status and validates the response shape against the spec schema.
Pro tip
Pipe the output into your CI with --junit smoke.xml and block deploys on failure.
