I would like to hear if any of you are using different app for API testing than Postman.
I’m not telling that Postman is bad, but maybe there’s all that I should check out. Recently I tried RapidApi and even tho the app is kinda cool I missed few options and went back to Postman for now.
Another vote for Insomnia here. I used to use Insomnia primarily until a lot of my work switched over to gRPC and I’ve found that Postman works a lot better for that. I still prefer Insomnia for the simple UX and speed, just wish it had better gRPC support.
I do have some bugs with Insomnia, for example with the oauth configuration failing. (I think it has something to do with some variable there failing)
You can workaround that by just removing oauth, and configuring again, but its annowing.

I still like insomnia overall tho.
