Restlet Studio vs Runscope: What are the differences?
Developers describe Restlet Studio as "The first browser-based IDE for APIs". Packaged as a Chrome extension and accessible from any modern web browser, Restlet Studio instantly provides to any developer powerful API crafting capabilities. Through an intuitive interface, developers can visually define all the elements of a web API, and automatically generate the client SDK and server skeleton of their API. On the other hand, Runscope is detailed as "API Performance Monitoring". Keep tabs on all aspects of your API's performance with uptime monitoring, integration testing, logging and real-time monitoring.
Restlet Studio and Runscope can be primarily classified as "API" tools.
Some of the features offered by Restlet Studio are:
- Visual Crafting of APIs
