⚠️ Heads-up, maintainers Hurl repo has been targeted by bad dudes: they create GitHub issues with shell payloads hidden in HTML comments (invisible in the browser). They were hoping our GH actions run command as-it. It didn't work ou our repo! Check your projects (use zizmor)

Long overdue, but #SkybearNET now runs on @HurlDev v7.1.0. All your secrets and account variables are now marked as Hurl secrets by default and masked in all the generated reports. Other goodies, more filters and predicates, also included as always. skybear.net/docs/support/cha…

Syntax coloring for Hurl files in GitHub (files and Markdown embedded code) is live now! Thanks for the people that have enabled this. If anyone knows what is the source project, some little things can be tweaked...

A very common programming case is "I need a second, slightly different version of this thing", which creates an immediate temptation to build a shared abstraction. IMO the better approach is to copy paste the whole thing, modify and get it working, and then decide if you need it.

I've been doing some hacking on a prototype that requires testing the bebavior of a REST API framework. It's so nice to use Hurl to write integration tests against a sample app that runs in my CI/CD pipeline. Nicer than unit tests in code even 🫣 hurl.dev/
