Recommending the Open-Source API Client 'Bruno' and Thoughts on Testing in the AI Era

用 Bruno，usebruno.com

我已经用了很久了，离线，免费，开源。没有什么账户，同步直接把 bru 文件写到 git 里面，推送就好了。

而且非常利于AI， docs.usebruno.com/agents/overview

可以帮你写 bru 文件，根据你的接口，他可以同时自动写好，你也可以直接把 bru 文件保存在你的项目中，然后配合 Bruno CLI 可以直接跑，就没有GUI 什么事情了，还可以配合 CI/CD 做自动化测试什么的。

但是我觉得现在越来越 AI ，其实这种工具的场景越来越少了，AI 直接写脚本测试就好了，想用什么工具用什么工具，TinyShip 中 api 测试，AI 就用了轻量级的 vitest 和最简单的 fetch，效果也很好的。

😡 我实在受不了 Postman 现在越来越慢的本地启动和调试速度了，那么问题来了：2026年，综合考虑 UI、交互、速度和开源这几个方面，最值得推荐的本地 API 调试工具是什么？

One Sentence Summary

Addressing Postman's bloat, I recommend the open-source, offline, and Git-friendly Bruno, while exploring the evolving landscape of testing tools in the AI era.

Summary

Responding to developer complaints about Postman's performance, the author recommends Bruno as an alternative, highlighting its offline, open-source, and Git-integrated nature. Furthermore, the author raises a compelling point: with the rise of AI-assisted coding, the necessity for traditional GUI testing tools is declining. Developers can increasingly leverage AI to write lightweight test scripts directly (such as vitest + fetch), achieving more flexible automated testing.
