Postman vs Runscope comparison

"I have enjoyed using parameters and setting parameters while powering directly."

"It is simple, easy to use and a good tool."

"The most valuable feature of Postman is the verification and testing of APIs."

"In Postman, we have an option to directly import a call, make it a Postman collection, and execute it in a batch. This feature is very useful. It saves a lot of time. The manual effort is also reduced when we can just pick it in a Postman collection and then run and execute it to get the results."

"It is a very stable solution."

"The most valuable feature of Postman is the large libraries."

"The most valuable features of the solution are that it is easy to use and user-friendly."

"It is a stable solution."

"Environment initial variables allow our team to run tests against multiple environments on the fly."

"Tests are per-step configurable with script capabilities and support for token-based authentication using variables. Configurable test frequency and integration with both Slack and PagerDuty for alerting our DevOps team are also important. General use of the dashboard by multiple team members is also valuable."

"We love the fact that we can have our API tests run on a schedule as often as we need. We also take advantage of being able to set up different environment settings so that we can use the same test in our production, integration, and QA environments, easily. The ability to string together a number of API tests for a test suite is very important to us as well."

"The schedule is definitely the most valuable. Also, being able to check the JSON attribute values is helpful. We always check the attributes. Finally, the notifications are helpful as well."

"Valuable features include: Being able to add tests as sub-tests in a parent test for regression testing; notifications for tests that pass/fail; being able to customize expected results with assertions; being able to set tests to run daily."

"We have the ability to populate environment variables using scripts. This allows us to keep the configuration mostly dynamic and avoid a lot of manual updates when something changes."

"We utilize modular tests based on environment variables. These have saved QA a lot of time when setting up our back-end automation."

"It uses JavaScript which is easy."

"The tool needs to have a reporting feature."

"Postman does not have a check-in balance. Essentially what I mean by that is if there is something that is already configured on a particular device, it just overrides it without checking whether you really want to override it or not."

"The pricing should be adjusted for the Pro plan."

"Version management could be simplified."

"Multi-part requests should be handled in the octet-stream."

"I have display issues in my Windows that need to be fixed."

"It would be beneficial to expand functionality with additional testing options."

"Postman needs to improve its support for a lot of integrations."

"We would like to be able to select the actual time a test will run automatically. It appears that you can set up the automatic schedule, but the test runs based on the last time it ran and not a time you select. Since we want these tests to run in the middle of the night, it would be nice to be able to select that."

"If you forget to set the default environment during test creation, you have to go through every test and make sure that it is set to the environment that you prefer if using shared environments. If there was an option to force all tests within a bucket into a specific environment with one click, this would save a lot of time."

"the built-in editor for the scripts can be improved a lot. Instead of making such a basic editor, maybe include a little more so it is easier to look at things and debug."

"If triggering test bucket via trigger API, there is no option to see if the tests which were triggered passed or failed."

"Reliability. I would like to see more money invested in disaster recovery testing of the application. The product should be hosted across several AWS regions so if there are issues with an EC2 instance in a particular region, the whole application won't be affected. Once or twice a year there are issues with AWS that causes the reliability of the application to suffer."

"The user interface requires a lot of clicking around."

"The initial setup included a lot of repetitive manual work."

"We would like to have an improved ability to share a set of tests across different environments (e.g., dev, stage, and prod)."

"Postman is an open-source product. It is free to download from Google."

"Unlike APIs, the solution does not require a license."

"Postman is a free service."

"The solution is open-source and free."

"The solution is free for individuals, but for companies that use it across the organization, you have to pay per user."

"This solution offers a free version."

"I rate the price of Postman a four out of five."

"I use the tool's free version."

"The price for the product is very reasonable for a team of more than four to five members."

"Runscope pricing is unbeatable"

"Having the different plans organized by team size, buckets, and requests per billing period works for our needs. Larger companies may need to take a close look at these elements."

"Pricing is fair."
