Bruno CLI
Bruno CLI is an open-source command-line interface tool introduced in 2022 designed for managing and testing API endpoints with a focus on usability and developer efficiency. Unlike traditional API testing tools, Bruno CLI emphasizes simplicity and productivity by enabling developers to create, test, and share collections of API requests directly from the terminal. It supports HTTP methods, customizable headers, and bodies, providing a lightweight alternative to GUI-based tools like Postman.
One of the standout features of Bruno CLI is its support for collections in YAML format, making it easy to version control API requests alongside the codebase. Developers can define, organize, and execute API requests while leveraging the speed and power of a terminal-based workflow. Additionally, Bruno CLI integrates seamlessly with CI/CD pipelines, allowing teams to automate API testing as part of their deployment processes. This makes it a compelling choice for teams seeking a code-first approach to API development and testing.
