Abstract
RESTful APIs are widely used in modern web services, making their security and reliability critical. This work presents Morest, a model-based approach to testing RESTful APIs that leverages execution feedback to guide test generation, achieving high code coverage and uncovering previously unknown vulnerabilities.
