I recently noticed a Google Chrome Webstore app that can be used for making a request to a web site or local site. I loved the app from the beginning. You can send a request to any site with header data, form data etc…
You can also attach a file to the form. Ain’t that Awesome.
Every web developer must have this app. Install it from Chrome Webstore

I am giving this app 4/5 stars
It’s 4 because it doesn’t support image mime types and it gives a Unexpected Token while parsing some JSON responses.
