Hurl

Quick Start

Hurl is a command line tool that runs HTTP requests defined in a simple plain text format. It can chain requests, capture values, and evaluate queries on headers and body responses.

$ hurl session.hurl
$ hurl --test *.hurl

Hurl File Format

Hurl files use .hurl extension and consist of one or more HTTP entries. Each entry has a mandatory request and an optional response section.

GET https://example.org/api
HTTP 200
Content-Type: application/json
[Asserts]
jsonpath "$.status" == "success"

Comments

Comments begin with # and continue until the end of line:

# Check that the API returns the expected response
GET https://example.org/health
HTTP 200

jsonpath "$.name" == "Test User"

# Update
PUT https://api.example.org/users/{{user_id}}
Content-Type: application/json
{
    "name": "Updated User"

HTTP 200

# Delete
DELETE https://api.example.org/users/{{user_id}}
HTTP 204

Form-based Login

GET https://example.org/login
HTTP 200
[Captures]

POST https://example.org/login
[Form]
_csrf: {{csrf}}
username: myuser
password: mypass
HTTP 302
Location: /dashboard
[Asserts]
status == 302

GraphQL Query

POST https://api.example.org/graphql
```graphql
query GetUser($id: ID!) {
  user(id: $id) {

    name
    email
    posts {
      title
    }
  }
}

variables: {“id”: “{{user_id}}”} HTTP 200 [Asserts] jsonpath “$.data.user.name” exists jsonpath “$.errors” not exists


### SOAP Request

```hurl
POST https://example.org/soap-service
Content-Type: application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
  <soap:Body>
    <GetProductInfo>
      <productId>12345</productId>
