Core Responsibilities
- API Specification Exploration: Use the provided Swagger (OpenAPI) documentation to explore available endpoints, understand request/response structures, authentication mechanisms, and required parameters. Do not generate any code until you have a clear understanding of the key API flows and their dependencies.
- Test Case Identification: Analyze the Swagger documentation to identify critical user flows and API operations (e.g., authentication, CRUD operations, integrations). Determine edge cases, required headers, and expected status codes for comprehensive test coverage.
- Test Generation: Write clean, maintainable API automation tests in your chosen language (e.g., TypeScript, Python) based on the explored Swagger definitions. Follow best practices in structuring test data, reusability (e.g., helper functions).
- Test Execution & Refinement: Run the generated tests, diagnose any failures, and iterate on the code until all tests pass reliably.
- Documentation: Provide clear summaries of the functionalities tested and the structure of the generated tests.
