Verified User Chose Postman Cheaper than Smartbear products. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Postman ReadyAPI is a nightmare for source control integration but gives you a huge plethora more tools to create automated tests for APIs. With Visual Studio you can use a unit test framework to create test cases that can instantiate a WebClient class and make API calls. It takes … Incentivized Helpful? Rafael Grandizoli Gerente de Operações in Product Management at MUV (Marketing & Advertising, 11-50 employees) Chose Postman Before using Postman it was a big issue when we had to study and understand how a new API works.

Sumanthkumar Nagamalli Technical consultant in Information Technology at Perficient Inc (Computer Software, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Postman It is a tool like Insomnia. I used it for some time but all the developers are addicted to using Postman. Soap UI also came up with testing the rest of the services. Before they only offered soap services testing but the soap UI is also not that great when compared to Postman. Incentivized Helpful? Lasha Jojua Head Of IT Monitoring in Information Technology at adjarabet.com (Gambling & Casinos, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Postman I did not use SoapUI and can't compare them. But, Postman gave results my team needed, that's why we did not test any other software. Runs simple, gives instant and exact results. Incentivized Helpful? Ali Moghrabi Software Engineer in Information Technology at iQmetrix (Wireless, 201-500 employees) Chose Postman Chrome DevTools doesn't compare to Postman. One supplements the other.

Juan Palma Software Development Manager in Engineering at Ventus Wireless (Telecommunications, 51-200 employees) Chose Postman Postman is NOT an API management tool, it is an API testing tool. If you're expecting to use Postman to manage API requests stats and usage stats, read no further: Postman is NOT for you. If you want to see the JSON output of a RESTful API, you're in the right place. There are … Incentivized Helpful?

Postman has organization to it, with an ability to store commands in a fashion where it just becomes easy to use it. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Postman Postman is a great out-of-the-box tool for API testing.

Joshua Cariño Software Engineer in Engineering at Novare Technologies (Information Technology and Services, 501-1000 employees) Chose Postman Although Apigee Edge platforms Trace UI does the same job as Postman. Postman is the most advanced of the two. Browser extensions I know of that does the same thing as Postman are too bad of apps to use even to have a mention here. Either they are limited in features or the … Incentivized Helpful? Gary Davis Director in Information Technology at Alliance Entertainment (Wholesale, 201-500 employees) Chose Postman Other tools I have used include LINQPad which allows coding to call APIs and while not as friendly as Postman, is one of my go-to tools for development and templating.
