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 if you want something postman-like (sortof). But also check out hurl if you're looking for something more test-oriented.

I find postman to be too complex, too much config all over the place. It's also difficult to share with others, it would be much better if it could store the settings in a file that could then be checked into git. That way everyone on the project would have the requests and could add and modify them as the server changes. Does any client like this exist?

I must be the only moron using JMeter in place of Postman.
