Collection Runner

The Collection Runner executes every request in a collection automatically — one after another — and records the results. Use it to run a full API test suite after a deployment, validate a multi-step workflow end to end, or test the same endpoints with dozens of different inputs from a data file.

For the complete guide including test scripts, data-driven runs, flow control, and export formats, see the full Collection Runner guide.

Quick Start

1. Click the Runner icon (play button) in the sidebar rail.
2. Choose a Collection from the dropdown.
3. Optionally choose an Environment.
4. Click Run.

Results appear in real time as each request completes. Click any result row to see the full response, test assertion details, and timing breakdown.

What the Runner Does

• Executes every request in the collection sequentially, in collection order.
• Runs any test scripts attached to each request and records pass/fail results.
• Runs any pre-request scripts before each request.
• Supports delay between requests, automatic retries, and stop on first failure.
• Saves a full run history that persists across app restarts.

Data-Driven Runs

Upload a CSV or JSON file to run the same collection once per data row — each row supplying different values for {{variables}} in your requests. See Running Tests with Data.
