Tool auto-generates Playwright API tests directly from OpenAPI specs
A developer has built a free web tool called swagger-to-playwright that converts OpenAPI 3.x specs into ready-to-run Playwright TypeScript test files. The tool, available at swagger-to-playwright.vercel.app, accepts YAML or JSON specs and automatically generates up to four tests per endpoint: a happy path, an auth check, an input validation test, and a contract validation test. It reads security schemes, required fields, and path parameters directly from the spec to avoid false positives. The tool is aimed at teams already using TypeScript and Playwright for end-to-end testing who want to quickly bootstrap API test coverage without writing repetitive boilerplate. It does not handle business logic or mocking, and is positioned as a starting point rather than a replacement for full contract testing solutions like Dredd or Pact.
