Hoppscotch
Hoppscotch — A credible lightweight browser-based choice for quick REST exploration and response tests, but I would choose Bruno, Insomnia, or Postman first for deep automation and team-scale workflows.
ChatGPT
JMeter
JMeter – The old reliable for load and functional testing; less modern than k6 but still widely used and free, especially in enterprises already invested in it.
