Run Pynt API security tests from ReadyAPI testing application

What is ReadyAPI?

💡 ReadyAPI by SmartBear is a comprehensive API testing tool designed for functional, security, and performance testing. Known for its powerful features, ReadyAPI allows developers to automate and streamline API testing workflows. The tool supports REST, SOAP, and GraphQL, making it versatile for various API types.


Pynt's Integration with ReadyAPI

As part of its API security testing suit, Pynt allows seamless integration with any ReadyAPI tests. By integrating Pynt with ReadyAPI, you can leverage the power of this vast platform while enhancing your API security. Pynt automatically generates context-aware security tests based on your ReadyAPI tests, enabling you to identify vulnerabilities early in the development cycle and reduce the risk of security issues in production.


Quick start

  1. First, make sure Pynt's prerequisites are met.

  2. Follow the instructions to install Pynt container here.

For this example, we will use pynt listen and set it to capture all domains:

pynt listen --captured-domains "*"

We will see the following output, meaning Pynt is listening on port 6666 for incoming traffic

Now on ReadyAPI, click on:

ReadyAPI preferences -> Proxy -> Manual HTTP -> Host: 127.0.0.1, Port: 6666

Run the functional tests on ReadyAPI, when done return to the terminal and hit Enter to start Pynt scan on the traffic generated by ReadyAPI

When scan is complete the Pynt report will open in the browser.
