Postman alternatives? (programming.dev)

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.

The big three for me are:

  1. For a given project, maintain a list of HTTP requests I often need to send
  2. Some way to save responses, so I can compare how the server does respond to how it previously responded.
  3. Both need to be shared with my colleagues. And this must not share any auth credentials/tokens/etc that are in every request (I want that do be done separately with something more secure).
