Record & Generate testcase
capture HTTP request and response
Before we write testcases, we should know the details of the API. It is a good choice to use a web debugging proxy tool like Charles Proxy to capture the HTTP traffic.
For example, the image below illustrates post form data to postman-echo.com.
export sessions to HAR file
Then we can select captured request & response and export sessions to HTTP archive (.har) file.
generate testcase with har2case
When you get HAR file, you can use builtin command har2case to convert it to HttpRunner testcase.
help
$ har2case -h
usage: har2case har2case [-h] [-2y] [-2j] [--filter FILTER]
[--exclude EXCLUDE]
[har_source_file]
positional arguments:
har_source_file Specify HAR source file
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-2y, --to-yml, --to-yaml
Convert to YAML format, if not specified, convert to
pytest format by default.
-2j, --to-json Convert to JSON format, if not specified, convert to
pytest format by default.
--filter FILTER Specify filter keyword, only url include filter string
will be converted.
--exclude EXCLUDE Specify exclude keyword, url that includes exclude
string will be ignored, multiple keywords can be
joined with '|'
generate testcase (pytest)
Since HttpRunner 3.0.7, har2case will convert HAR file to pytest by default, and it is extremely recommended to write and maintain testcases in pytest format instead of former YAML/JSON format.

And it can be run with hrun command or the native pytest command. In fact, hrun is only a wrapper of pytest, thus the effect is basically the same.
