sse also some projects that depend on kin-openapi , and pick those of interest for tests :

• https://github.com/getkin/kin - "A configurable backend"
• https://github.com/danielgtaylor/apisprout - "Lightweight, blazing fast, cross-platform OpenAPI 3 mock server with validation"
• https://github.com/deepmap/oapi-codegen - Generate Go server boilerplate from an OpenAPI 3 spec
• https://github.com/dunglas/vulcain - "Use HTTP/2 Server Push to create fast and idiomatic client-driven REST APIs"
• https://github.com/danielgtaylor/restish - "...a CLI for interacting with REST-ish HTTP APIs with some nice features built-in" (Feel free to add your project by creating an issue or a pull request)

Example awesome

• apisprout on the fly creates a REST API :

  docker run --name jblsprout -p 8000:8000 danielgtaylor/apisprout https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/master/examples/v3.0/api-with-examples.yaml
  docker run --name jblsprout -p 8000:8000 danielgtaylor/apisprout https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/master/examples/v3.0/api-with-examples.yaml

• then in antoher shell session :

curl http://localhost:8000/ | jq
