A public API is available to query all published QC Test definitions (including links to the famous 'Card' images).
Example API calls
https://ebu.io/qc/api/v1/items returns all published (and any deprecated) Test Items
https://ebu.io/qc/api/v1/items/0001F returns a specific Test Item
https://ebu.io/qc/api/v1/items/0001F/versions/2.0 returns a specific version of a Test Item
Fair use (rate limiting)
The API calls are limited in time & amount.
Requests also can be cached, so you may get a 429 if you already got the latest information. See the API documentation for more details.
