Compose and send HTTP requests (method, URL, headers, auth, body) and inspect the response — a lightweight Postman in your browser.
API Testing Tools
API testing is the fastest way to find out whether a service behaves as documented. These tools let you compose and send requests with any method, headers, authentication and body, then inspect the status, headers, timing and payload that come back — the core of a Postman-style workflow, in a browser tab.
Beyond plain requests, the category covers what real API work needs: a webhook URL that captures incoming calls, testers for GraphQL, SOAP and WebSocket, validators for responses, headers and schemas, and a status-code simulator for checking how your client handles failure.
Tools in this category
Quickly check that an API endpoint is reachable: status, response time, size, content type and TLS.
Test REST endpoints with full control over method, headers and JSON body, then assert on status, headers and JSON paths.
Run GraphQL queries and mutations with variables and headers against any endpoint and inspect the response.
Send SOAP 1.1 / 1.2 envelopes with SOAPAction headers and view the formatted XML response.
Connect to WebSocket servers, send messages and watch incoming frames in real time — directly from your browser.
Check several API health endpoints at once and get status, latency and a pass/fail summary.
Analyze an API response: structure, field types, nulls, duplicates, sizes and potential data-quality issues.
Compare two API responses (e.g. staging vs production) and list every structural and value difference.
Validate an API response against expectations: status, required headers, JSON schema and field rules.
Validate API response headers for correctness, security and caching best practices.
Generate realistic request payloads from a JSON Schema, an OpenAPI schema or a sample object.
Get a public endpoint that returns any HTTP status code, with optional delay and custom JSON body, to test client error handling.
Test Bearer, Basic, API-key and custom-header authentication against an endpoint and compare authorised vs unauthorised responses.
Validate API responses against a JSON Schema or an OpenAPI response schema.
Get a unique URL, send webhooks to it and inspect method, headers, body and timing in real time.
Inspect captured webhook deliveries in depth: headers, signatures, JSON body, timing and replay data.
See exactly what your client sends: method, headers, query, body, IP and TLS info.
Inspect the request headers your browser or client sends, with explanations for each.
Capture and inspect request bodies (JSON, form, multipart, XML) exactly as sent.
Format, prettify and annotate webhook payloads from Stripe, GitHub, Shopify, Slack, Twilio and more.
Verify webhook signatures (HMAC-SHA256/SHA1, Stripe, GitHub, Shopify, Slack styles) with your secret — locally.
