Your reference docs is the foundation of your API documentation set. One of the biggest problems that developers encounter is incomplete or outdated documentation. You could check your docs by hand if you have a small API, but what happens when you have to maintain reference docs for several, large APIs? API specification languages have become more popular, but one their main benefit is still largely overlooked; you can programmatically validate your docs against your API, and include these tests in your CI/CD tools.

If you’re involved in creating, maintaining or updating API docs, come and learn how validating your docs with Dredd is faster and less error prone than doing it yourself. With all the time you’ll save by implementing this, you can devote yourself to other important work (read: look at funny cat videos).
