BEST API TESTING Tool **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Shubham B. | D, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 12, 2022 **What do you like best about PAW?** Best functionality. Amazing user interface. It also provides PAW cloud. It can organize requests if the user asks for it. It also provides shortcuts to enhance work efficiency and save time. **What do you dislike about PAW?** Unfortunately, it is only a Mac-OS application. It's really painful for my Windows colleagues to transfer my work to another similar application on Windows. The price is unattractive. **What problems is PAW solving and how is that benefiting you?** There is strong support for OAuth 1 and 2. We can even export the work via Postman if the clients want that. We can see the request and response headers. The plugin system is very useful. ### 2.

REST API and GraphQL best app **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Anthony D. | Fullstack Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 27, 2020 **What do you like best about PAW?** Having used other products to test APIs with (Postman, Insomnia), PAW is the easiest to use of the bunch and very aesthetically pleasing. Many other apps have extremely cluttered UIs but this one has the most succinct and well thought-out UIs of them all. The plugin system is so useful and easy to use (JS) , the variable system is also very well made. It also allows to organize requests, make groups and sort by host, name and so on. There's a very nice support to OAuth 1 and 2, Basic Auth, S3, and can even generate JWT tokens easily. One of my favorite feature is to really easily generate ready-to-use client code, so you can simply import a cURL from a browser, modify the request, then simply generate the code to Python, Go, Swift, Java… you can even export to Postman if your client wants to! That's really awesome. The use of quick mouse and keyboard shortcut access makes the software easy and very fast to use. And of course, you can see the request and response informations with their headers and bodies. **What do you dislike about PAW?** PAW is macOS-only unfortunately. Even if my company only have macOS-based computers for their developers, this is unfortunate that it's not available for Windows. Also, there's no way to mock an API, and that very sad since I need to use another software to do that. That would be very good to work with my team. Also, the price is very unattractive. Other than that, PAW is the best tool for dealing with APIs and GraphQL, really. **Recommendations to others considering PAW:** It sends all kinds of HTTP requests; Supports GraphQL; Can import and export to a bunch of formats; Allows browsing request and response JSON in outline and editor format; Supports almost all authentication formats; Supports dynamic values and environments. **What problems is PAW solving and how is that benefiting you?** It's good, simple an clean UI, I have been using PAW for years now, and it's one of the best to build, test and browse REST and GraphQL APIs. ### 6.
