Download HttpMaster
HttpMaster is a desktop application for interacting with HTTP servers, designed for developers and testers. Its project-centric model stores all request definitions in a single file, which includes global settings for headers and URL encoding. The tool provides capabilities for dynamic value injection, allowing a single request item to generate multiple variations of a call.
The software includes features for validating server responses using custom logical expressions, not just status codes. It supports the creation of sequential request chains where data from one response is extracted and used in the next request. Execution results are presented with details on headers, cookies, and timing.
HttpMaster is developed and published by Borvid, a software company. The program has been available since 2012. It is written in C# for the Microsoft .NET Framework, with a primary focus on the Windows operating system platform.
