API Fortress announced its downloadable test editor Forge, aimed at increasing flexibility in how developers choose to write API tests. According to the company, users can write the tests on their own computer outside of the platform.
The company also released the application apif-local that contains the core of the API Fortress platform. The app is intended to work with Forge to allow a seamless switch between a localhost and the platform.
“Continuous testing is a critical need that should involve both testers and engineers. With Forge and apif-local, engineers can take part in writing tests that validate their APIs alongside the code itself, with minimal workflow impact,” said Simone Pezzano, CTO at API Fortress.
