I used curl before that. But I can see how curl will be intimidating for non-engineers.

Now, I recommend Bruno to even non-engineers.

Notwithstanding your judgment of others’ ability to use curl - I wouldn’t compare API clients to curl at all.

For all engineers

  - detailed customization of the request/response - Python scripts
  - syntax highlighting - bat
  - pretty printing - jq
  - automated load and behavior testing - several specialized tools
