Postman
Postman is the API platform used by tens of millions of developers. It already handles REST, GraphQL, WebSocket, and gRPC — MCP adds a new protocol to that stack. Test MCP tool calls, inspect responses, and organize them in collections alongside your existing API tests. Share MCP tool tests with your team through Postman workspaces.
API Testing Extended to MCP Tools
Postman's strength is making API testing collaborative and organized. MCP tools get the same treatment: collections for grouping tools, environments for switching between staging and production servers, and test scripts for validating tool responses.
The Postman AI assistant (Postbot) can suggest test cases for your MCP tools, generate documentation, and help debug unexpected responses — just as it does for REST APIs.
Features:
- Collections — organize MCP tools alongside REST and GraphQL endpoints
- Environments — switch between dev, staging, and production MCP servers
- Test scripts — automate MCP tool response validation
- Team workspaces — share MCP tool tests with your team
- Postbot — AI assistant for test generation and debugging
- History — full log of every MCP tool call and response
- Newman CLI — run MCP tests in CI/CD pipelines
