RESTer is a simple yet highly efficient OS X application that enables developers to test web servers that are hosting Rails, ASP, or Express.js APIs by using elementary HTTP commands.

To start using RESTer, you must begin by creating a new project. The next step is to select the HTTP method you want to employ and provide the target web server.

The utility provides support for the following major HTTP methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS, PATCH, HEAD, and TRACE.

Once you press the Run button, RESTer will perform the command, and you will receive a confirmation message via the Notifications Center. The rendered content can be viewed as raw text, or you can use different syntax highlighting patterns, such as HTTP, XML, or JSON.

For each HTTP query, RESTer enables you to process the data using different templates in an attempt to create simpler structures for complex bodies. Before running an HTTP request, just input the body or headers parameters that are to be automatically processed.

Moreover, it can automatically handle authentication details and apply rules when it comes to the maximum timeout period, number or redirects, or which type of redirects are to be followed.

RESTer enables you to run as many HTTP requests as you like and you can choose to save the project using the app’s proprietary file format in order to have access to the information and query results at a later time.

To conclude, RESTer provides support for most major HTTP methods and offers you the possibility to run tests on your APIs or web servers and document the results. Moreover, you can choose to apply various templates and see the data in a more user-friendly manner.
