From the sources

Clobbr is a developer tool that allows you to test your api endpoints to see how well they perform under multiple requests (clobber your APIs!), in sequence or parallel. Regardless if you're testing a REST, GraphQL or cloud function Clobbr has got you covered!

Clobbr is a fast, local-first API load testing tool for macOS, Windows, and CLI. Lifetime license, no subscription, no account, GraphQL + REST supported.

Run parallel or sequential load tests in seconds. Understand p50, p95, p99 with interactive charts, not spreadsheets. Ship faster, with fewer regressions. From request to result in seconds, with all the depth you need when the happy path breaks. No spreadsheets, no surprises. REST, GraphQL, cloud functions. Point Clobbr at an endpoint, choose the verb, and fire off thousands of requests with a click. Every method is supported, including PATCH and DELETE. Skip the spreadsheets. Clobbr surfaces standard deviation, percentiles, mean, min and max for every run, and lets you track how those numbers drift over time. Pick a verb, set iteration count, toggle sequential or parallel execution,…from clobbr.app

    Development teams often struggle with using multiple tools like Postman and Swagger for API design, development, and testing. This fragmented approach leads to outdated API specs and chaotic collaboration. So we built Apidog: a single, unified API platform for team collaboration. It has a beautiful interface that makes it easy to create API spec, generate request data from API spec, validate responses, create mock data, orchestrate test scenarios, and publish API documentation. Apidog = Postman + Swagger + Mock + JMeter.

  • Httpdbg – A tool to trace the HTTP requests sent by your Python code2024 · github.com · ▲200

    Hi, I created httpdbg, a tool for Python developers to easily debug HTTP(S) client requests in Python programs. I developed it because I needed a tool that could help me trace the HTTP requests sent by my tests back to the corresponding methods in our API client. The goal of this tool is to simplify the debugging process, so I designed it to be as simple as possible. It requires no external dependencies, no setup, no superuser privileges, and no code modifications. I'm sharing it with you today because I use it regularly, and it seems like others have found it useful too—so it might be…

    MerLoc is a live AWS Lambda function development and debugging tool. MerLoc allows you to run AWS Lambda functions on your local while they are still part of a flow in the AWS cloud remote. MerLoc makes it possible to - test your function locally without deploy to the AWS Lambda environment (so no wait for build, package and deploy) - debug your function by putting breakpoints from your IDE - hot-reload updated function on your local automatically to apply changes automatically (so again no wait for build, package and deploy) - run the individual function locally while it is still part of…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
