Postman
Postman is an API development and testing platform for developers that supports building, sending, debugging, and automating API requests. Core features include creating and managing API request collections, configuring environment variables, writing test scripts, and executing automated tests via the command-line tool Newman. Postman also provides team collaboration functionality, enabling multiple users to share API documentation and test cases, and is widely used in interface integration and quality verification workflows.

Both Postman's environment variables and .env files adopt the placeholder approach of storing real credentials separately from request structure
Postman and AWS jointly shared the architectural design behind Agent Mode, centered on three key themes: controlling tool proliferation, Schema-based read-only access, and context management.
Postman adopts a pattern of exposing read-only access based on Schema, constraining read operations within a predictable structure.
Postman runs its Agent Mode on Amazon Bedrock to support API call volumes from 40 million developers.
Postman has launched Fabric Gateway to address governance challenges for large-scale MCP servers.
The course backend uses Python's FastAPI to build a RESTful API, and Postman is used for interface testing.
The author points out that traditional mock tools such as Postman and WireMock are not well-suited for handling non-deterministic tool calls from LLMs.
The AI interface test script generation agent developed by the author allows users to upload API documentation and generate scripts in three formats: Postman, JMeter, and Pytest.
The salary range for junior test engineers is 5–10K, and the current entry requirements include mastering at least one programming language (Python recommended) and familiarity with tools such as Postman, databases, Nginx, and the HTTP protocol.
Among interface testing tools, Postman focuses on being fast and lightweight, while JMeter is suitable for automation and stable execution when embedded in Jenkins pipelines.
