I dislike postman. I see job postings that are like "MUST KNOW POSTMAN". Fuck, people should know how to make API requests but postman isn't the only tool for that.

Furthermore, if I'm doing automated tests to run on PR I'm not going to use a GUI. Pytest or jest or whatever testing library your language has.

I did use Bruno for a while for convenience during local development, though.

I saw a job posting the other day that had a hard requirement of 7+ years of experience with a specific IDE. It was phrased as an absolute must have.

That's how you know an organization is totally clueless. TBF, not all IDE's are created equal but it would be kind of like a construction foreman refusing to hire a anyone who didn't have 7+ years of experience with DeWalt power tools.
