Dear Friends, One of my friend created an automated conformance test suite engine. It basically takes YAML file as an input and created hundreds of conformance testcases for both client side and server side. If anyone is interested to know more or give it a try let me know! It can save lots of time and improve efficiency. And, any other suggestion or referral of similar tool that can do will be appreciated as well.

I’d be interested in it! Assuming it takes an OpenAPI definition in YAML? Any possibility for JSON as well?
