Why I built RedfireForge: one workbench for six API protocols

Описание и применение

RedfireForge объединяет тестирование API для HTTP, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSocket, SSE и Kafka в одном интерфейсе, позволяя создавать цепочки запросов, выполнять нагрузочные тесты и интегрировать их в CI.

Задача

Developers needed to keep multiple tools open to test different API protocols, leading to fragmented workflows and lack of shared variables or unified reporting.

Результат

RedfireForge streamlines API testing across six protocols, reducing tool fragmentation, enabling workflow automation, and supporting CI integration.

Рабочий процесс

• Open RedfireForge desktop or browser app
• Create or import OpenAPI catalog for HTTP/GraphQL
• Design a workflow using variables, conditions, fork/join
• Add gRPC, WebSocket, SSE, or Kafka steps
• Run ad-hoc requests or execute the workflow
• View consolidated reports and assertions
• Export or run the same tests in CI via redfireforge-cli

Доказательства

I was tired of keeping four tools open to test one service.

RedfireForge is my attempt to put that in one workbench.
