Perfect API testing tool

  • July 30, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postman is one of the finest software development tools that come into use for almost every web-based project that anyone is building, it provides you features to test your APIs on your local machine, add headers and all the meta data that any real user would do. It also lets you check responses from the server and on top of that, it helps a lot with the API documentation.

Every API or services requires testing for different requests before deploying it for the real world users, thus it is utmost necessary to test all of them before proceeding towards deployment and Postman appears to be the best tool for that!

Also lets you add security tokens or any security checks that would be needed by users after deployment,
What do you dislike about the product?
One and only dislike could be the ease of use, it's not that easy to use Postman and explore its functionalities fully if you're new to it, one should know how to add headers, how to change the type of content, how to add meta data and how to analyze responses or any kind of errors using postman.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
API testing for projects being made using Spring boot framework, Java and flask framework, Python.
Been using Postman almost daily since last 2 years.

All you need for API development and testing

  • July 29, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like collecting all your APIs under same group and easily separating environments. Testing your APIs on different environments without hassle. Parametric configuration for requests. Easy to share your APIs with your team members.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't like the interface when I have to use it for multiple accounts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's easy to manage APIs, testing them on both production and development environment with certain parameters that you define. Even when we are developing an API, most of the time we use postman to test it and see the response of our services.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely understand how environments work. It'll save a lot of time when you test your APIs.

A usefull tool with self explanatory UI

  • July 29, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The UI of the application. It is very intuitive. Whenever I want to send a request to an endpoint, Postman is the first thing that comes to my mind. The ability to save a particular request and revisit it in later times is also helpful. The history option which allows the user to check all the previously submitted queries is a great feature. Also, the application allows the user to input the data in the request in different formats. This tool helps to test everything before the frontend work even begins.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't find any nitpick to dislike. Every functionality that I needed was present and was able to find it quickly. The team has done a greater job on the functionality of the product. One performance concern was that when more tabs are opened, I have experienced some lags and it uses up more RAM than expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Postman to test my web application endpoints. Sending 'Post' and 'Get' requests and seeing their replies on the same screen helps in the development process. Postman has helped my team to test all the backend functionality even before the frontend has been designed and created. Backend testing became very easy after the company started using Postman.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Postman is the perfect tool to test the HTTP/HTTPS endpoints of the server. I would highly recommend this software to backend developers. It is easy to use and intuitive.

Excellent solution for API unit testing

  • July 29, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The graphical user interface takes a minute to get used to, but once learned it is straightforward and quick
What do you dislike about the product?
I think there could be a slightly better effort into making the UI a bit more straightforward. A few times I forget things need to be saved before testing begins, for example. The grouping of tests is a bit odd to manage as well
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We develop restful APIs. As such, we have unit testing within the projects, but we lacked the last part, which is the actual communication with the API. Postman solved this issue, and we find in several cases shifting some of the internal unit testing to postman (since it would kill two birds with one stone).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would start with small tests of simple endpoints first. Try to pick endpoints that return JSON files with a low number of keys and easy expected values. Also, in our case, since there were multiple post/delete endpoints we wanted to test, we setup a mirror testing server which is identical to the live one except for the database connection.

Best tool for API Development and testing

  • July 29, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One can add multiple environments and variables based on those environments - handy yo track if you are working on multiple APIs. There's a history tab with the requests and responses ran in the past - a great way to reuse old requests. The feature to write tests in the request itself is a great way to automate some sanity checks. Also, collections are helpful to organize requests for various APIs. These collections can also be exported with tests and can be incorporated into the test suite in the CI system.
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation is not very clear and has very few examples. There are a limited number of things that one can do in tests - so don't consider this feature as a full testing solution for any API testing. Postman application itself is pretty great, it provides most of the functionality that I need. The UI might be a bit confusing for new users. Hence better documentation or some hot to videos would help. One thing that becomes an issue is that it becomes difficult to manage tabs when one has more than 10+ tabs open.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a developer who works on multiple APIs at any given time. I use POSTMAN to organize my request responses in a single place. I am heavily dependent on it to ease of my load during dev testing of some API that I have made changes to.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just start with it.

Must have tool for web developers

  • July 28, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postman is a great tool for issuing HTTP GET / POST calls to test REST APIs requests and responses. One of the features that came in quite handy for our development team is the ability to generate client code in various languages and tools such as cURL, JavaScript, and PHP. This has helped us expedite development and testing overall.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface can be overwhelming at first since there are some many features. We're still learning some of the more advanced features. The documentations are a good starting point but we would like to see additional examples, particularly with the scripting capabilities.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Postman has allowed us to speed up testing and development of our internal API tools. Best of all, the free version has nearly everything we need to get started with testing.

Knock-Knock - Letter from REST API

  • July 28, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One of the best way to get your hands dirty with REST API calls.
You wanna test your localDB, or any other on the other side of your router its totally worth using POSTMAN.
ALL HTTP verbs , with great UI helps even an amateur to learn calling REST.
The best part is no worries for formatting the response be it JSON, TEXT, XML,media etc.
Testing APIs with parameters, or query attributes has well defined UI to input values, thus worrisome way of editing the URL is gone.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its integration with other frameworks is not so easy to go with.
You seriously need to be atleast an intermediate developer with some knowledge to gain advantage of its functionality while developing with your application.
Although, it provides you all the REST verbs but , HTTPS urls need certificate sometimes because of extra TSL security, thus it has no way of communicating the security protocols even if you have the key.
You need to go through all the pain to bypass or enter that secure network manually.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been working on POSTMAN since last 1 year.
I have used it for my personal projects from data science to web development and from desktop application to android.
As per current scenario its the best way to learn how microservices are communicating throught REST.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
GO for it, REST is everywhere !

I am working on e-commerce application. For that, we are testing API's using Postman
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommend.
