Review on ReqBin by Stephen Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for automating tests against existing endpoints

The UI looks great, it's easy to use with many features that are helpful while writing APIs in NodeJS or Angular projects! I like how you have some of your best performing requests pre-filled automatically (see my comment below). It would be nice if there were more ways available where we could customize our own request/response pairs instead just using those predefined ones out off the bat because they're good enough but not perfect. If anyone wants something quick as their first project then this should definitely work well since most likely nothing else will at first either due being new into any tech stack so no complaints here yet :D I like that I can just copy paste the URL and run it. I dislike the cost. I'm not entirely sure what the benefit is of a cloud based API testing tool. I would like to see more pricing options. I would like to see a free version with limited features. I think the product is great, but I would like to see more features and price options. I'm solving the problem of testing API's without having to build them myself.

Pros
  • Easy interface for requesting data from an api.
  • Good amount of preset tests already made by others users which makes life easier when trying different test scenarios against RESTful services before building anything yourself.
  • This feature helps me avoid long waiting periods during development stage until everything works properly together between server side code vs client web apps
Cons
  • Nothing here
