Manually test grpc interfaces

When you have soap webservice, you can always use soapui to create test xml requests for manual interface tests. You insert you test data into the xml document and send the request to the soap provider. You can then analyse the response in soapui.

We are currently thinking about switching from soap with xml to grpc with protobuf3. Is there a test gui for grpc that offers features as described above for grpc?

You could use https://kreya.app, which is a gRPC GUI client, very similar to SoapUI for SOAP services (or Postman for REST services).

I don't think the equivalent tooling is readily available, but we do continuously try to improve the state of tooling for gRPC and Protocol Buffers.

In the meantime, there is grpc_cli project that might be immediately helpful, and gives you an idea if you want to build your own similar tool.
