What I like the most is that using Thunder client is more straightforward and less time-consuming than using postman for API testing. It is just an extension that can be easily installed in your vscode. You don't have to switch apps for testing API. Using thunder client, we can write code and test API in Vscode only. Everything is the same as all the other testing tools like postman and swagger, so there is nothing to worry about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It comes as a vscode extension that developers can use to test their API during development. Its quick and easy to use within the IDE. There are other alternative tools with more features, but this one can still be used for quick testing of api. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its a small extension with not much features unlike other tools like postman that provides a lot of features and is a whole separate tool to install. But it is still ok for testing while developing in the same ide. They can add few new features like the one available in postman to the same extension. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
