The Challenge

Designing APIs is often inefficient and slow: complex specs need to be manually written based on murky requirements, details are often poorly defined or documented, and many problems only appear during implementation. This results in slow feedback loops, stalled development, and far too many ‘back to the drawing board’ moments.

The Solution

WireMock Cloud increases developer efficiency and replaces tedious iteration cycles with a collaborative API prototyping and testing environment. Here’s how it works:

1. Start with a mock API, we’ll do the rest. WireMock Cloud will auto-generate the OpenAPI spec and relevant documentation in a collaborative portal
2. Continue developing in parallel. When the spec changes - based on ongoing feedback or evolving business requirements - you can easily reflect the changes in the mock.
3. Go live without a hitch. When the live API is ready, replace a few lines in your code and move to production - safe in the knowledge that your app has been developed and tested against the real API’s expected behaviors.
