## Pynt's Integration with ReadyAPI&#x20;

As part of its [API security testing](/documentation/api-security-testing/security-testing-overview.md) 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&#x20;

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).

For this example, we will use [`pynt listen`](/documentation/api-security-testing/pynt-cli-modes/pynt-listen-cli-mode.md) and set it to capture all domains:

```bash
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.
