And breaking in "breaking news" is about potential breaking changes 😔 We tried hard but in some (hopefully rare) cases you have to update your Hurl Files More information here => hurl.dev/blog/2026/04/27/ann…

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/

From man ln: An easy rule to remember is that the argument order for ln is the same as for cp: The first argument needs to exist, the second one is created. 🧙‍♂️Best advice ever, I always forget the order to ln -s foo bar, this time it will stick!

Happy to see @Changelog using Hurl to test their new in-house CDN youtu.be/qsIuFnhhM0w?t=2802 Being able to run and check the correctness of a system locally is essential. Super interesting full episode here => changelog.com/friends/92

CLion is now free for non commercial use! A really great IDE for Rust and my goto editor for Hurl dev. The killer feature is seamless dev and debugging with C source and libs (libcurl and libxml in Hurl case). It just works! Kudos JetBrains 🤘 blog.jetbrains.com/clion/202… @jetbrains
