Karate is the only open-source tool to combine API test-automation, mocks, performance-testing and even UI automation into a single, unified framework. The BDD syntax popularized by Cucumber is language-neutral, and easy for even non-programmers. Assertions and HTML reports are built-in, and you can run tests in parallel for speed.
 
Its features include: 
<ul>
<li>Scripts are plain-text, require no compilation step or IDE, and teams can collaborate using Git / standard SCM</li>
<li>Elegant&nbsp;<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain-specific_language">DSL</a>&nbsp;syntax &lsquo;natively&rsquo; supports JSON and XML - including&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#set">JsonPath</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#xpath-functions">XPath</a>&nbsp;expressions</li>
<li>Tests are super-readable - as scenario data can be expressed in-line, in human-friendly&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#json">JSON</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#xml">XML</a>, Cucumber&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#the-cucumber-way">Scenario</a>&nbsp;Outline&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#table">tables</a>, or a&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#set-multiple">payload builder</a>&nbsp;approach&nbsp;<a href="https://gist.github.com/ptrthomas/d6beb17e92a43220d254af942e3ed3d9">unique to Karate</a></li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/intuit/karate/wiki/IDE-Support#vs-code-karate-plugin">Fully featured debugger</a>&nbsp;that can step&nbsp;backwards&nbsp;and even&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/KarateDSL/status/1167533484560142336">re-play a step while editing it</a>&nbsp;- a&nbsp;huge&nbsp;time-saver</li>
<li>Ideal for testing the highly dynamic responses from&nbsp;<a href="http://graphql.org/">GraphQL</a>&nbsp;API-s because of Karate&rsquo;s built-in&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#text">text-manipulation</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/json-path/JsonPath#path-examples">JsonPath</a>&nbsp;capabilities</li>
<li>Re-use of payload-data and user-defined functions across tests is&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#reading-files">so easy</a>&nbsp;- that it becomes a natural habit for the test-developer</li>
<li>Support for&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#data-driven-tests">data-driven tests</a>&nbsp;and being able to&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#tags">tag or group</a>&nbsp;tests is built-in, no need to rely on an external framework</li>
<li>Multi-threaded&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/#parallel-execution">parallel execution</a>, which is a huge time-saver, especially for integration and end-to-end tests</li>
<li>Option to use as a light-weight&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/intuit/karate/tree/master/karate-netty#standalone-jar">stand-alone executable</a>&nbsp;- convenient for teams not comfortable with Java</li>
<li>Cross platform&nbsp;<a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/karate-robot">Desktop Automation</a>&nbsp;that can be&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/ptrthomas/status/1215534821234995200">mixed into Web Automation flows</a>&nbsp;if needed</li>
<li>Gatling integration can hook into&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/intuit/karate/tree/master/karate-gatling#custom">any&nbsp;custom Java code</a>&nbsp;- which means that you can perf-test even non-HTTP protocols such as&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/thinkerou/karate-grpc">gRPC</a></li>
<li><a href="https://karatelabs.github.io/karate/karate-mock-servlet">Mock HTTP Servlet</a>&nbsp;that enables you to test&nbsp;any&nbsp;controller servlet such as Spring Boot / MVC or Jersey / JAX-RS - without having to boot an app-server, and you can use your HTTP integration tests un-changed</li>
<li>&nbsp;</li>
