We're thrilled to announce that BrowserStack has acquired Requestly, the widely loved HTTP interception and mocking tool.
By joining forces, BrowserStack and Requestly are making developers' lives easier by eliminating the blockers that slow down frontend development and giving teams the power to build, test, and debug faster than ever before.
A Shared Mission to Simplify Development
Modern web development often runs into the same hurdles: waiting on backend APIs, dealing with unreliable environments, and wasting hours debugging network issues. Requestly addresses these pain points head-on with:
- Shift-left Development Experience: Delivers faster web development by offering comprehensive tools for HTTP interception, debugging, and mocking, supporting use cases from cloud-based mocking to JS redirects and local testing.
- Zero-configuration Setup: It installs directly into the browser and uses browser APIs to intercept and modify requests, eliminating the need to manage system-level proxy settings and install SSL certificates. This ensures it works well with corporate VPNs.
- Open-source, Secure, and Enterprise-ready: Requestly is an open-source solution providing flexibility and speed for web development. For enterprises, Requestly provides features like SSO, SLAs, SOC-II compliance, reporting and analytics, and role-based access control for efficient management.
- Seamless Workflow Integration: Built primarily as a browser extension with a minimalistic and intuitive design, requiring no learning curve for developers.
- Team Collaboration: Enables teams to organize and collaborate on projects effectively through shared workspaces where users can instantly share rules, environments, and mocks.
Requestly has seen strong adoption across the developer ecosystem trusted by over 200,000 developers across 10,000+ companies. It maintains a 4.3 rating on the Chrome Store from over 1,200 reviews and has an active, growing open-source community.
Committed to the Community
Requestly began in 2018 as a simple tool for JavaScript testing and has evolved into a comprehensive HTTP interception and mocking solution, widely trusted and adopted by the developer community. Sachin Jain, Founder of Requestly, said:
"Requestly was born from our own frustration of wasted developer hours due to broken workflows. Joining BrowserStack allows us to accelerate our roadmap while staying true to our vision and open-source roots."
BrowserStack CEO & Co-founder, Ritesh Arora added:
