   Ok, we've changed to that from https://github.com/Orange-OpenSource/hurl. Thanks!

3. restclient.el

   2 24 1,977 0.0 Emacs Lisp

   Discontinued HTTP REST client tool for emacs

   I recently switch from custom Bash wrappers around curl to restclient.el [1]. It has similar features. Especially nice is the integration with jq for fetching specific data (or inspection of results with jq-mode). And, whoever is inclined to appreciate it, the fact that I can stay within Emacs. No need to get familiar with a new UI/UX.

4. ob-restclient.el

   3 5 214 5.8 Emacs Lisp

   An org-mode extension to restclient.el

   

5. ob-http

   make http request within org-mode babel

   

6. verb

   5 18 673 8.7 Emacs Lisp

   HTTP client for Emacs

   

   Not as usable for testing, but verb.el[1] is a great tool for doing something very similar in org-mode

11. bun

    9 388 79,109 10.0 Zig

    Incredibly fast JavaScript runtime, bundler, test runner, and package manager – all in one

    

    > Hurl runs super fast without startup latency unlike a lot of tools in this category written in node

    it is really a problem with JavaScript engines, not Node or with the tools itself

    I'd suggest taking a look at bun, which is built with fast startup time in mind: https://bun.sh

    Great tool and documentation <3

    Started investigating how it can be integrated into GitLab CI/CD in the most efficient way.

    Simple - install Hurl using before_script every time into the used container image. Example in https://gitlab.com/everyonecancontribute/dev/hurl-playground...

    Efficient - build a custom container image (the upstream container image behaves unexpected when overriding the entrypoint for CI/CD, need to investigate and create an issue) Example in https://gitlab.com/everyonecancontribute/dev/hurl-playground...

    A quick example to check the website body can be achieved with

      $ vim dnsmichi.at.hurl

13. katt

    11 3 120 5.9 Erlang

    KATT (Klarna API Testing Tool) is an HTTP-based API testing tool for Erlang.

    

    https://github.com/for-GET/katt is the same concept, but following the pattern matching philosophy. Written in Erlang, available as a CLI tool as well but needs the erlang runtime installed.

    Code example: https://github.com/for-GET/katt/blob/master/doc/example-http...

    Disclaimer: I'm one of the authors, thus biased, but the reason I'm mentioning katt is that the low barrier of entry for captures and asserts makes it a nice requirement tool for non-techs to write complex API scenarios.
