Promising tool! I wish there was better support/display for redirects. E.g., the URL could be changed automatically for follow-up requests, or there could at least be any display of the redirect information.

This thing is excellent if you are trying to debug a POST method. As far as I can tell, the in-browser version of Postman cannot do this, or at least does it in such a way that unless your route also implements GET, it will fail.

But RestMan -- a couple of clicks and I was in business. Wish I'd known about this a week ago.

Good but i really miss the possibility to send cookies, e.g. for Debugging purposes like xdebug always need a XDEBUG_SESSION cookie to trigger it.
Five Stars as it is possible to send cookies
