I'm surprised OpenAPI/Swagger hasn't been suggested. Define either as yaml or inline JsDoc comments if you're working in js/ts. I thought it was more popular than postman but I must be living in a bubble.
Local, open source, versioned and can serve as interactive documentation for users. Never tried it personally but it can even generate code from the specs.
- isbvhodnvemrwvn 3y agoMy main use case for postman like tools is to get me into the middle of a workflow to reproduce some sort of a scenario. Stateless tools just don't do it, as I need to spend a long time copying things around.
- worksonmine 3y agoSwagger and its derivatives support example requests and auth. How does postman do it differently I haven't used it in years?
- isbvhodnvemrwvn 3y agoAllows arbitrary scripts to save the context of requests. Hardcoded examples you can't change without committing in contract are not even close to that functionality.
