Postman

A client for sending requests to an API and asserting on the responses, used to exercise by hand what Swagger describes on paper.

I used Postman heavily at UW-Milwaukee and at Bader Rutter for API development, automated collection testing, endpoint debugging, and mock servers. It is the fastest way I know to troubleshoot an interaction with a vendor SaaS product.
