Summary

Postman is a widely-used graphical HTTP API client that facilitates the creation, testing, and management of API requests by allowing users to construct, send, and save these requests in collections. These collections can be exported as JSON files and executed via the Newman CLI tool, enabling integration into CI/CD pipelines for automated testing. Users can enhance their testing processes by writing pre-request and test scripts, which run before and after API calls, respectively, using a friendly UI. Moesif API Analytics offers the ability to generate Postman collections from real user requests, providing a means to debug and test APIs with actual data, thereby improving the robustness of test suites. This integration allows for seamless version control and efficient onboarding of new developers, as they can quickly access and run predefined tests.
