ReqRes is a hosted REST API with a real backend. Use the free public API to test against, or create your own with collections, auth and request logs, and point your test suites at it in 30 seconds.

Real behaviour
to test against

Login, register and CRUD that behave like a real backend: real tokens, real status codes and real error bodies. No fake 200s.

Read the docs

Test auth without building auth

POST /api/login and /api/register return real tokens, and missing fields return a 400 with a real error. Session-token auth for your app's users when you need the full flow.

Stop rebuilding the same fixtures

users, todos, orders, employees, posts: the collections every suite needs, ready on day one with sample data, stable schemas and full CRUD. Add your own when the built-ins aren't enough.

What developers say

Using ReqRes is way faster - you don't have to deploy, create schemas, or check versions. ReqRes already handles that for you.
