Make and manage HTTP requests

Hit is a command-line program that makes it easy to build HTTP requests using plain-text files and execute them.

Some features include:

  • authoring HTTP requests using plain-text files
  • using output of one HTTP request as input to the next request
  • define request templates that can be dynamically populated
  • execute complex workflows by changing the execution order of requests and using inbuilt cache to inject a subset of response into a request
  • Combine responses from multiple requests and send them in a single request
