Breaking news: Hurl 8.0.0 is out! 🌈 Full JSONPath/RFC 9535 support 🌈 Env vars configuration 🌈 More TLS certificates tests 🌈 Plus: cookies-less mode, raw multilines & more... A quick tour here => hurl.dev/blog/2026/04/2… @OrangeDev @Orange

@LambrosPetrou @OrangeDev @orange Some potential breaking changes that should be limited! #breaking-changes" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">hurl.dev/blog/2026/04/2…

@HurlDev @OrangeDev @orange Oh nice! I somehow missed this update. Will test it out for #SkybearNET

@OrangeDev @orange And breaking in "breaking news" is about potential breaking changes 😔 We tried hard but in some (hopefully rare) cases you have to update your Hurl Files More information here => #breaking-changes" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">hurl.dev/blog/2026/04/2…

@wesbos @syntaxfm Hurl, a cli to run and test HTTP request, based on curl and plain text github.com/Orange-OpenSou…

What are you working on? Send me your project. OSS, Paid, whatever. We're doing a @syntaxfm Syntax Highlight and we will review and/or roast your projects

@jmduke 👀

Gave a visual refresh to our stack page and combined it with the open source one, since that seems... more correct, somehow. buttondown.com/stack

«With that in mind, here are five projects that are designed around plain text and code, which makes them scriptable by both humans and AI agents.» asciinema, Mermaid, Streamlit and pgschema 👀 Surreal to be among you, thanks @StarHistoryHQ star-history.com/blog/ai-ui-irr…

Long overdue, but #SkybearNET now runs on @HurlDev v7.1.0. All your secrets and account variables are now marked as Hurl secrets by default and masked in all the generated reports. Other goodies, more filters and predicates, also included as always. #2026-feb-22--hurl-upgrade-to-710" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">skybear.net/docs/support/c…

The source project seems to be github.com/github-linguis… and the author is Niklas Mollenhauer (github.com/nikeee) Thanks a lot nikee 😎!

Syntax coloring for Hurl files in GitHub (files and Markdown embedded code) is live now! Thanks for the people that have enabled this. If anyone knows what is the source project, some little things can be tweaked...

@captainsafia @davidfowl I can totally se a Hone script replacing it: RUN foo.sh ASSERT stdout == foo.out ASSERT stderr == foo.err ASSERT exit_code == 0

@captainsafia @davidfowl For cli integration tests, we have a home-made Python script with: the file to run: foo.sh the expected stdout: foo.out the expected stderr: foo.err the expected exit: foo.exit github.com/Orange-OpenSou…

Started working on a test explorer experience for Hone in VS Code. Got far enough to remember that the VS Code extensions API is annoying sometimes and that it probably wasn't worth investing in a nice editor experience for this thing. The positive side-effect is that I learned about the Common Test Report Format (ctrf.io) for representing test outputs. Not sure how popular it is but test runners displaying machine-readable outputs in a standardized format feels like goodness these days.

@emil_priver If your integration tests are HTTP based, you could try hurl.dev : tests are just a DSL for testing headers, body (jsonpath, ssl certs....). It's less powerful than code but can also serve as docs for your APIs (some samples here => hurl.dev/docs/samples.h…)

Currently building some integration tests in go one of our applications

@jmduke Debugging is easier though, with intermediate variables, don't you think?

@geneilliss You can try Hurl if you're into cli: it's a Rust open source to run and test HTTP requests, based on plain text and curl => hurl.dev It's not as easy as a good GUI app but at least it's not ressources hungry

A very common programming case is "I need a second, slightly different version of this thing", which creates an immediate temptation to build a shared abstraction. IMO the better approach is to copy paste the whole thing, modify and get it working, and then decide if you need it.

Super proud to announce Hurl 7.1.0! 🔹 JSON response automatic prettifying 🔹 new predicates isObject, isList 🔹 curl options --ntlm --negociate per request 🔹 new filters utf8Decode, utf8Encode All about prettifying here => hurl.dev/blog/2025/11/2… @OrangeDev @Orange

@StephaneTrebel @benjilegnard You can still test your APIs but yes indeed no JS/UI interactions 😔

@HurlDev @benjilegnard Hurl is nice, truly, but we're talking about SPA frontend E2E tests here 😉

«- Et les tests E2E, ils sont couplés à quel point à l'implémentation ? - Ben… »

@StephaneTrebel @benjilegnard 👀 you could try hurl.dev

@benjilegnard Je devienne fou. Heureusement, on va progressivement migrer sur Playwright...faudra juste pas reproduire la même sauce 😅

I've been doing some hacking on a prototype that requires testing the bebavior of a REST API framework. It's so nice to use Hurl to write integration tests against a sample app that runs in my CI/CD pipeline. Nicer than unit tests in code even 🫣 hurl.dev
