Dredd-like tool for swagger?

Question

Is there a tool like Dredd (for API blueprint) that can be used with Swagger schema?

I would like to use such a tool to automate testing - have swagger schema files document my API, and then use such a tool to automate tests. The tool should have the following ability:

Define the endpoint (including host and port) to run the test against
Have descriptors or meta data for each test that define which schema file to use and what example payload to use, and what is the expected response

Since v1.1.0 released the other day, Dredd is now the Dredd-like tool for Swagger. — Phil Sturgeon, Jun 20 '16 at 16:43

There's a Swagger2Blueprint converter (https://github.com/apiaryio/swagger2blueprint), you could use it to setup your workflow with Dredd and Swagger files.

Yes, we are considering to move out from blueprints. And I happen to find dredd a bit flaky, especially around hooks that need to populate DB entries. – Yair Zaslavsky Oct 27 '15 at 02:00
What exactly you mean by flaky around hooks? So we can improve it. – Nov 02 '15 at 12:43

I'd suggest using SoapUI for doing so. You can import a swagger definition and create a number of tests automatically. See here for the source, and you can always download the application pre-built.
