1. A method of testing an application programming interface (API) call, comprising:
- receiving an API call to access at least one web service, the API call indicating a schema associated with the at least one web service;
validating the API call based on the schema; and
based on validating the API call, providing a simulated API response that simulates an API response from the at least one web service.

Abstract
This document discusses, among other things, a method of testing an Application Programming Interface (API) call that includes receiving data identifying a schema associated with web services together with an API call. Various example embodiments may relate to accessing a data repository associated with the schema to identify an API response corresponding to the API call. In some example embodiments, a message is returned that is based on a determination of whether the API call is valid. The example message may simulate an API response from web services.

17. A response simulator to test an Application Programming Interface (API) call, the response simulator comprising:
-
a communication interlace to be communicatively coupled to a user interface and to receive from the user interface; an API call to access at least one web service, the API call indicating a schema associated with the at least one web service; a validation module communicatively coupled to the communication interface to determine whether the API call is valid; and a response module communicatively coupled to the validation module and to the communication interface to provide a simulated API response based on validating the API call, the simulated API response simulating an API response from the at least one web service. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
