Three steps to reliable email tests

No mail server setup. No flaky waits. Just a simple API.

01

Send to Plop

Use qa+signup@in.plop.email as your test user's email address.

02

Fetch via API

GET /v1/messages/latest returns the email as JSON instantly.

03

Assert in tests

Extract OTP codes, verify links, and check content.

Built for test automation

Everything you need to test email flows in CI.

Mailboxes + tags

Route flows with mailbox+tag addresses like qa+login@in.plop.email.

REST API

List, filter, and fetch emails. Poll for the latest message.

Scoped API keys

Full access, email-only, or mailbox-scoped keys.

Official SDKs

TypeScript and Python SDKs with built-in polling. One line to wait for emails.

Works with your test framework

Fetch emails, extract codes, assert content.

// TypeScript SDK — one line to wait for an email
import { Plop } from '@plop-email/sdk'

const plop = new Plop({ apiKey: process.env.PLOP_API_KEY })
const msg = await plop.waitFor({
  mailbox: 'qa',
  tag: 'login',
  timeout: 10_000,
})
const otp = msg.textContent?.match(/\b\d{6}\b/)?.[0]
await page.fill('[data-testid="otp-input"]', otp)
