Introduction
What is Testra?
Testra is the largest decentralized supergraph for self-hosted MCP servers in Web3. It provides a comprehensive platform for discovering, testing, and integrating Model Context Protocol (MCP) compatible servers across blockchain and traditional applications.
Key Features:
Registry: Browse thousands of verified MCP servers
Testing: Live Inspector for real-time endpoint testing
Security: Comprehensive security audits and compliance checks
Analytics: Performance monitoring and uptime tracking
Web3 Native: Built for on-chain and decentralized applications
The Model Context Protocol (MCP)
MCP is a standardized protocol that enables applications to interact with external services through a minimal HTTP API. It defines how servers expose structured, callable functionality that can be discovered and consumed by client applications.
MCP Core Concepts:
Endpoints: Standardized HTTP routes (
/health,/capabilities,/execute)Functions: Named operations with defined input/output schemas
Schemas: JSON schemas for type-safe interactions
Metadata: Server information and capability descriptions
Why Use Testra?
Traditional service discovery falls short in Web3 environments. Testra solves this by providing:
Verified Servers: All servers undergo compliance and security checks
Real-time Testing: Test endpoints before integration
Transport Layer Support: HTTP, WebSocket, and on-chain protocols
Developer Tools: SDKs, documentation, and integration examples
Community Driven: Open platform with transparent governance
