In ReadyAPI, you can create virtual services (virtual APIs) in any of the following ways:
-
From an OpenAPI, Swagger, WADL or WSDL definition, or from an API specification added to your project. In this case, ReadyAPI will create virtual operations from operations mentioned in the definition.
-
By recording traffic to some existing API or database. In this case, ReadyAPI will create operations from recorded requests and responses. This approach is also called virtual service discovering.
-
Generate a virtual service automatically from the Swagger, WADL or WSDL specification added to your project.
-
Clone some existing virtual services.
-
Create an empty virtual service and then add operations to it.
The topics of this section provide detailed information on these variants:
