What this service delivers
Apps rarely break because an API goes offline. The usual cause is a field that silently becomes optional or changes type. Contract testing catches this. Our test suite checks each response against its schema, validates status codes and error formats, and enforces the access rules that matter most, such as one customer never seeing another's data. It runs on every pull request, so a breaking change shows up as a failed build rather than a bug report from a partner.

Who it suits, and what we need from you
Ideal for
- Teams whose released mobile app struggles to keep up with server changes
- Products with APIs used by external partners
- Back ends that nobody refactors because the impact is unclear
What we need from you
- API access with test credentials for each role
- An existing API specification, if there is one; we can work without it
- A developer to confirm intended behaviour when it is unclear
You share these through the brief in your account after checkout.
What changes for your team
-
01
Breaking changes fail in the pipeline, not on users' phones
-
02
Refactoring becomes safer with contracts enforced automatically
-
03
Released mobile apps stop failing when the server changes
Questions about this service
No. If one exists we use it. If not, we capture the current responses and agree them with your developers as the starting contract.
API tests are fast compared with browser tests. The suite is designed to run in a few minutes.
This is a remote technology service, so nothing is shipped physically. Work is delivered into systems you control. Read delivery and handover and refunds and cancellation for the full terms.
