Venom is a CLI tool for creating, managing, and running integration tests declaratively. It executes test suites using built-in executors (HTTP requests, scripts, web, IMAP, etc.) with assertions and variable support.

Use cases

• run integration tests from the command line
• write declarative HTTP API test suites
• test APIs with assertions in YAML
• run integration tests in CI/CD pipelines
• chain test steps using outputs from previous steps
• export test reports in xUnit format
• test email flows via IMAP

When to choose

• you want declarative, YAML-based integration tests without writing code
• you need a single CLI binary that runs in CI/CD pipelines
• you need to test HTTP APIs, scripts, or email with built-in executors
• you want xUnit-compatible test reports

When to avoid

• you need unit testing for Go code (use Go's native testing package)
• you need complex custom test logic better expressed in a programming language
• you need browser end-to-end testing with rich UI interactions
