apidog-tests-mcp

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for managing Apidog test cases, scenarios, suites, and test data. Gives AI assistants full read/write access to Apidog's test management features.

This project is not an official Apidog integration.

Features

• Test Cases -- Create, read, update, delete, and bulk-create test cases for API endpoints

• Test Scenarios -- Build multi-step test flows chaining multiple API calls

• Test Suites -- Organize tests into runnable suites for CI/CD

• Test Data -- Manage data-driven test iterations with CSV-formatted data

• Folders -- Organize scenarios and suites into nested folder structures

• Read-only tools -- List environments, endpoints, categories, tags, runners, and coverage statistics

Documentation

• docs/PRACTICAL-USAGE.md -- proven patterns for creating stable test cases/scenarios/suites

• SECURITY.md -- vulnerability reporting and secure usage guidelines

• CONTRIBUTING.md -- contribution workflow

• CHANGELOG.md -- release notes

Installation

npm install -g @acabala/apidog-tests-mcp

Or use directly with npx:

npx @acabala/apidog-tests-mcp

Configuration

The server requires these environment variables:

MCP Client Configuration

Add to your MCP client config (e.g. Claude Desktop claude_desktop_config.json):

{
	"mcpServers": {
		"apidog-tests": {
			"command": "npx",
			"args": ["@acabala/apidog-tests-mcp"],
			"env": {
				"APIDOG_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your-token",
				"APIDOG_PROJECT_ID": "your-project-id",
				"APIDOG_BRANCH_ID": "your-branch-id"
			}
		}
	}
}

Recommended Token Practices

• Use a dedicated token for automation.

• Scope access to the minimum required Apidog project(s).

• Rotate tokens regularly.

• Keep MCP client config files local/private.

Development

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Run in development mode
npm run start:dev

# Type check
npm run typecheck

# Format
npm run format

# Run tests
npm test

# Run tests with coverage
npm run test:coverage

# Build for production
npm run build

Security

• Use a dedicated automation token with minimal required permissions.

• Never commit APIDOG_ACCESS_TOKEN or environment-specific IDs.

• Keep local MCP client config files private.

• See SECURITY.md for reporting and response policy.

Release and Versioning

This repository uses Changesets and a GitHub Actions release workflow:

• Add a changeset for user-visible changes: npm run changeset

• Release automation creates/updates a version PR on main

• Merged release PR publishes to npm with provenance

Open Source Guidelines

• Contribution guide: CONTRIBUTING.md

• Code of conduct: CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md

• Changelog: CHANGELOG.md

Practical Tips

• Always include path and parameters.path when creating route-parameterized test cases.

• For update operations, prefer this server's merge-style tools over raw full-replace payloads.

• Use customScript post-processors for assertions to avoid runner issues with declarative assertions.

• See docs/PRACTICAL-USAGE.md for complete examples.
