Looking for a better API testing tool than Postman

robinswob59 — Fri, 05 Feb 2021 15:42:01 GMT

I've been using Postman to do my API testing. I like it generally as it's UI is ok and it's free. However, as I've gone on using it, it's become increasingly slow - not just starting up and sending requests, but also navigating the UI. I've checked my task manager and Postman is frequently hitting close to 100% CPU.

Instead of looking into making it fast again, I'd like to try out other tools for API testing. I've overheard that there are much better options than Postman so I'm interested to find out what people recommend.

've been utilizing Postman to do my API testing. I like it for the most part as it's UI is alright and it's free. Be that as it may, as I've continued utilizing it, it's gotten progressively sluggish - firing up and sending demands, yet in addition exploring the UI. I've checked my errand chief and Postman is regularly hitting near 100% CPU.

I have been testing APIs with Postman. In general, I like it because of its free nature and user-friendly interface. However, as I have continued to use it, it has become increasingly slow-firing up and sending requests, as well as exploring the UI. Postman most of the time hits 100% CPU, according to my assignment director. I used t for one of my sites that is kohlsfeedback and it works 100% fine.

So, you can implement as per my experience and review.

You can try Insomnia or Hoppscotch, both are lighter and faster than Postman, with clean interfaces and great support for collections and environments. If your system still feels sluggish, it might be due to a CPU bottleneck rather than the tool itself, so checking overall performance balance can help before switching completely.
