Postman requests map to Testfully tests and collections in Postman map to folders/collections in Testfully. Using the Postman Collection Importer (available via Settings > Import > Postman Collection), you can easily import your Postman collections and included requests to Testfully. Importing Postman collections (V2.1) to Testfully If you’re considering Testfully as a tool for API testing and monitoring and have used Postman in the past, we highly recommend reading the Postman alternative article which compares Postman and Testfully. Testfully updates matching config values of the matching environment using the values provided in the JSON file. If your workspace has a global with the same name, Testfully won’t add a new config. Testfully tries to add new config values per environment variable in the provided JSON file. If your workspace already has an environment with the same name, Testfully uses that environment instead of creating a new one. Testfully tries to add a new environment to your workspace with the same name as your Postman environment. When processing an exported environment file from Postman(.json), Testfully handles the data as below:
We highly recommend importing all of your environments to Testfully before importing your requests & collections. Postman environments map to Testfully environments and Environment Variables in Postman map to configs in Testfully.
Install the Speedscale CLI using the instructions in the CLI repository: Head on over to Postman’s download page if you don’t already have Postman installed.
Read on to find out how to do this with the free Speedscale CLI tool and its Postman export feature. Also, you can take the same traffic recording and insert it into the CI build process when you’re done with your immediate development. If your API changes, just re-record and create a new collection. It’s the best of both worlds: a slick UI and automated recording from a real application.
With it, you can record requests and use them directly in Postman. And even when it’s done, the API tests are almost immediately out of date because the API contract changes.įortunately, Speedscale’s free CLI tool can make your life much easier.
Also, if you get one HTTP Header or parameter wrong, it can take hours to diagnose. Meticulously entering every detail for every use case takes forever. However, manually writing test cases for local development gets tedious fast if you have a lot of endpoints. It’s GUI is simple to learn and ubiquitous.
Postman is a great tool for API testing during development.
