How to use Keploy?

To effectively use Keploy, follow these steps:

1. Installation: Integrate Keploy by installing the open-source agent locally using the command:
   curl --silent -O -L https://keploy.io/install.sh && source install.sh

2. Recording Test Cases:

   • Begin recording by starting your app with Keploy to convert API calls into tests and mocks/stubs.
   • Make API calls to your app while Keploy records the interactions.
   • Use the command keploy record -c CMD_TO_RUN_APP where CMD_TO_RUN_APP is the command to start your app.

3. Testing:

   • Cease services like Database, Redis, Kafka during the testing phase as Keploy does not require them.
   • Utilize the command keploy test -c CMD_TO_RUN_APP --delay 10C to initiate the testing process.

By following these steps, you can harness Keploy's capabilities for streamlined testing, efficient network interaction capturing, and automated test generation. Keploy aids in improving test coverage and accelerating development processes seamlessly. For further details and support, refer to the official Keploy documentation and community resources.
