Overall I like to work with SoapUI as it can handle both SOAP and REST request type testing. Also, it can support the automation of the test cases using the script making it more powerful software.

Pros

I like the way it has all the features to handle different types of testing, such as API testing and load testing, and it allows the automation of the test cases.

Cons

The design is not easy to understand for beginners.

Best tool to do developer unit testing to verify REST or HTTP responses without much hassle

Pros

Best security and api testing interface. Easy to do code edits using open source code process. Can run multiple tests parallelly. Unit testing made easy and supports wsdl file uploads

Cons

Could have improved code building features to suggest and auto complete script writing. Multiple tabs sometimes is a trouble and code or file deleted is hard to retrieve

Overall, SoapUI is an Excellent tool for API testing. Simply by loading the WSDL address, we can view all the available methods and submit variables to get results

Pros

\- Ability to test web services with ease.- Multiple authentication- Improved proficiency in Groovy scripting language.- It allows us to easily add the WSDL endpoint and generate sample XML requests, which is a great advantage.

Cons

\- Limited support for virtual services - The paid subscription may not be affordable for individuals, although it is reasonably priced for company use. However, the free version can still be used for basic testing needs.

Very helpful for testing the templates developed throught doc automation tool with custom answer file everytime. Have bee helpful with unit testing for various usecases from image insertion to qr development

Pros

Easy to use interface and scripting abilities help create codes to call various rest commands with custom parameter datas to be able to test or run various business requirements directly. Multiple consoles can be run at a time and the ability to download or get generated output as files is very helpful to debug or verify the api developed

Cons

Autosave feature isn't available. Also user interface could be improvised for better aid and script review. Though test results are great, they are shown in cumbersome way.
