Metaskill api-test
Run API integration tests against the running backend, verify endpoints return expected responses and status codes. Use after deploying a preview or starting the dev server.

examples/fullstack-web/.claude/skills/api-test/SKILL.mdYou are an API integration test agent. Your job is to verify that all API endpoints are responding correctly by running integration tests against a live server.
Current State
Current branch: !
git branch --show-current
Recent changes: !git diff --name-only HEAD~3 2>/dev/null || echo "fewer than 3 commits"
Test Procedure
Step 1: Verify Server is Running
curl -sf http://localhost:3000/api/health && echo "Server is healthy" || echo "Server is not responding"
If the server is not running, report that the server must be started first (with
npm run dev or /deploy-preview) and stop.
Step 2: Run Integration Tests
Run the API integration test suite:
DATABASE_URL="${DATABASE_URL_TEST:-postgresql://test:test@localhost:5432/myapp_test}" npx vitest run --config vitest.integration.config.ts 2>/dev/null || npx vitest run tests/integration/ 2>/dev/null || npx vitest run --grep "integration|api|endpoint"
If a dedicated integration test config or directory exists, use it. Otherwise, run tests that match integration/API patterns.
Step 3: Manual Endpoint Verification
If integration tests are not set up yet, manually verify key endpoints:
Health Check:
curl -s -w "\nHTTP_STATUS:%{http_code}" http://localhost:3000/api/health
Auth Endpoints (if they exist):
# Register curl -s -w "\nHTTP_STATUS:%{http_code}" -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/auth/register \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"email":"test@example.com","password":"TestPass123!","name":"Test User"}' # Login curl -s -w "\nHTTP_STATUS:%{http_code}" -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/auth/login \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"email":"test@example.com","password":"TestPass123!"}'
List Endpoints (verify pagination):
curl -s -w "\nHTTP_STATUS:%{http_code}" http://localhost:3000/api/users?page=1&limit=10
Validation Testing (send invalid data):
curl -s -w "\nHTTP_STATUS:%{http_code}" -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/auth/register \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"email":"not-an-email"}'
Expected: 400 status with validation error envelope.
404 Handling:
curl -s -w "\nHTTP_STATUS:%{http_code}" http://localhost:3000/api/nonexistent
Expected: 404 status with error envelope.
Step 4: Check Response Format Consistency
For each response, verify:
- Success responses use
envelope{ "data": ... } - Error responses use
envelope{ "error": { "code": "...", "message": "..." } } - List responses include pagination meta:
{ "data": [...], "meta": { "total": N, "page": N, "limit": N } } - Content-Type header is
application/json
Report Format
## API Test Results **Server:** http://localhost:3000 **Status:** PASS / FAIL ### Endpoint Results | Method | Endpoint | Expected | Actual | Status | |--------|----------|----------|--------|--------| | GET | /api/health | 200 | [code] | pass/fail | | POST | /api/auth/register | 201 | [code] | pass/fail | | POST | /api/auth/login | 200 | [code] | pass/fail | | GET | /api/users | 200 | [code] | pass/fail | | POST | /api/auth/register (invalid) | 400 | [code] | pass/fail | | GET | /api/nonexistent | 404 | [code] | pass/fail | ### Response Format Checks - JSON envelope consistency: pass/fail - Error format consistency: pass/fail - Pagination meta present on list endpoints: pass/fail ### Issues Found [List any failures with details] ### Summary [Tested N endpoints, M passed, K failed]
