Abstract
An application programming interface (API) simulator generates synthetic responses for use during development and testing of subsystems. The API simulator receives an API schema including annotations that specify constraints on the synthetic responses. The API simulator generates synthetic responses as results of APIs that conform to the constraints specified using the annotations. The use of API simulator allows testing of subsystems using realistic synthetic responses that satisfy specific constraints as specified using annotations of the API schema.
