Use Cases and Deployment Scope

ReadyAPI is used to validate endpoint functionality and for load testing. The main purpose of using the tool is to create specific scenarios that can be mocked by utilizing files with actual production data and then running it against different endpoints to confirm code is providing the correct response

Pros and Cons

data validation
load testing
endpoint availability

change ability between the free and paid version
better tutorials
better bulk processing

Return on Investment

ROI has been minimal and not worth the renewal fee

Alternatives Considered

Postman

Postman is simpler and super less expensive than ReadyAPI. In addition, the product continues to work even after the license has expired in comparison to ReadyAPI which requires you to purchase a new license every time. Is a turnoff.
