Getting Started

VenomQA tests what other tools miss: the bugs that appear in sequences of API calls, not individual endpoints.

The 30-Second Pitch

Your API has state. A user creates an order, requests a refund, then requests another refund. Each call looks valid in isolation. The bug only appears in the sequence.

VenomQA explores every sequence automatically.

pytest         → Tests functions in isolation
Schemathesis   → Fuzzes individual endpoints  
VenomQA        → Explores all call sequences
