# Pynt for TestRunner (ReadyAPI CLI)

## **What is ReadyAPI TestRunner?**

{% hint style="info" %}
💡 [**ReadyAPI testrunner**](https://support.smartbear.com/readyapi/docs/functional/running/automating/about.html) is the command-line utility for running API tests in ReadyAPI. It allows you to execute functional, security, and performance tests directly from the CLI.

## Pynt's Integration with ReadyAPI TestRunner

As part of its [API security testing](/documentation/api-security-testing/security-testing-overview.md) suit, Pynt allows seamless integration with any ReadyAPI tests.

Pynt can leverage the traffic generated by the ReadyAPI functional tests to perform a comprehensive API security test.

***

## Quick start

1. First, make sure Pynt's [prerequisites](/documentation/api-security-testing/prerequisites-for-running-pynt-scans.md) are met.
2. Follow the instructions to install Pynt container [here](/documentation/api-security-testing/how-to-install-pynt-cli.md).
3. Then, continue with the below example.

***

## Example

In this example, we will use [`pynt command`](/documentation/api-security-testing/pynt-cli-modes/pynt-command-cli-mode.md) to wrap the testrunner command. the proxy parameters must be added to route testrunner through Pynt: `-Dhttp.proxyHost` and `-DhttpProxyPort`&#x20;

See the following example:

```bash
$ pynt command --cmd './testrunner.sh -r -a -j -I /tmp/Project-1-readyapi-project.xml -Dhttp.proxyHost=127.0.0.1 -Dhttp.proxyPort=6666'
```
