AssertJ VS milkman

Maybe not the feedback you want, but would you consider developing something that looks like plain old (and frankly beautiful) AssertJ?

AssertJ - fluent assertions

AssertJ https://github.com/assertj/assertj

Truth or AssertJ for easier assertions in tests with better exceptions

While we are at it: AssertJ is very powerful for writing assertions.

In OO you can make beautiful DSLs that allow really declarative use within that domain, e.g. test assertions in AssertJ, but everybody in the OO world is sensible enough to not try and claim OO as such being declarative. I guess they don't feel a need to try to prove the superiority of the paradigm.

AssertJ comes with a variety of assertions that can be chained together and are specific to the type of your "actual" variable.

At any rate it comes from a library called assertj.

While Hamcrest add some fluentidity to unit tests ä, I prefer the fluent assertions of AssertJ.

There certainly are plenty of Postman alternatives out there, one that I've used before is Milkman: https://github.com/warmuuh/milkman

It's built on a plugin architecture, does gRPC, GraphQL, JDBC, Ws, et.al. Other plugins allow sharing of workspaces to various services. Written in Java/JavaFX, brew or chocolatey install.

I built milkman[1], an alternative to postman because I wanted one tool to integrate with the whole web development stack. One tool that contains my SQL, rest and grpc calls to easily debug issues. Also nearly none of those kind of tools that existed supported SSE which I also use in my day to day work.
