Same here, absolutely love being able to write HTTP requests like code! With the auto completion I’m 10x faster writing requests than using Postman or Insomnia. You can define multiple requests in one file and execute them like a script. There’s also a templating feature which you can use for different environments.

curl?

SoapUI open source version works pretty well and does not require a logon to save your projects
-
I’ll use REST Client in visual studio code when working on Azure functions etc
-
https://hurl.dev is pretty sweet.

Curl. Or if I need to chain stuff together for auth reasons or whatever, sometimes ill just pop into a python virtualenv and use
requests -
I’ve recently been looking at Hopscotch: https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch
But the free version of Postman seems to offer everything we’d want.

Curl
-
Sometimes swagger UI

Why switch? Postman is still my go-to
-
Insomnia or just plain old cURL
-
And which ones handle injecting base 64 encoded file content (100MB) into the json body well? I've been using SoapSonar, but I'm having issues with this at the moment.

Depends on what tests I want to do. Sometimes I just make a python script.

Insomnia.rest generally is my tool: https://github.com/Kong/insomnia
Thunder Client if you like to keep all the relevant requests n data inside the project directory, probably good for teams: https://open-vsx.org/extension/rangav/vscode-thunder-client
With VS-Codium (vscode with the microsoft telemetry scraped out): https://vscodium.com/
