This document proposes an approach to automatically generate test cases for REST APIs using the OpenAPI specification. It leverages the OpenAPI metamodel to extract models and define inference rules to generate nominal and faulty test cases. An implementation was validated on real-world APIs, achieving over 75% coverage of operations, parameters, endpoints and definitions. The main failing points identified were incorrect or invalid OpenAPI definitions. The approach aims to increase coverage levels and support the OpenAPI v3.0 specification.
