Detailed instructions

1. Select the event type you want to simulate from the Event Type dropdown (e.g., payment.completed, order.created).
2. Set the Number of Events field to how many distinct payloads you need in this batch.
3. Click Generate to produce the JSON payloads, each with unique randomized field values.
4. Copy individual payloads or the full batch and paste into your webhook endpoint, test fixture file, or Postman request body.

Use Cases

• •Sending a payment.completed payload to a local Express webhook endpoint via curl before going live
• •Seeding Jest fixture files with 10 subscription.cancelled events to test idempotency and deduplication logic
• •Populating a Mockoon or WireMock server with order.shipped events for parallel frontend integration work
• •Generating invoice.paid payloads to validate HMAC signature verification inside a Pytest test suite
• •Demoing a webhook handler in a technical interview without needing a live Stripe sandbox account

Tips

• →Generate at least 5 events of the same type to catch bugs that only appear when IDs or timestamps vary between calls.
• →For idempotency testing, generate two batches and check that duplicate event IDs in your handler don't cause double-processing.
• →Combine payment.completed and payment.failed payloads in the same test run to validate that your error-handling branch is also covered.
• →When writing API docs, generate a single event, pretty-print it, and use it verbatim as your example payload — it's more credible than a hand-written stub.
• →If your consumer validates required fields strictly, inspect the generated payload first to confirm all fields your schema expects are present before writing assertions against them.
