About hoot
Portkey-AI/hoot
MCP Testing Tool — Like Postman, but for the Model Context Protocol.
Provides HTTP and SSE transport auto-detection for seamless server connection, plus OAuth 2.1 compliance testing with automatic token management and secure SQLite persistence. The architecture uses a Node.js/Express backend as an MCP client proxy, eliminating browser CORS constraints while enabling conversational tool testing through an AI-powered interface. Deployable locally via npm or to Cloudflare Workers, with shareable "Try in Hoot" links for collaboration.
About mcp-test-client
crazyrabbitLTC/mcp-test-client
MCP Test Client is a TypeScript testing utility for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.
Provides assertion utilities and a fluent API for validating tool availability and responses in test suites, with built-in process spawning to launch MCP servers via stdio transport. Integrates directly with testing frameworks like Vitest/Jest through async lifecycle hooks, and includes a mock calculator server reference implementation for learning and validation.
