Postman API Testing (EN)

Chinese version： See the corresponding Chinese skill.

When to Use

• Need outputs that should land in a Postman API testing workflow.
• The project already uses Postman or wants Postman-ready planning.

Output Format Options

Markdown by default unless the request explicitly asks for another format.

How to Use

1. Open prompts/api-test-postman.md and use it as the main prompt.
2. Add the real project context: scope, environment, constraints, risks, dependencies, and expected deliverable.
3. If the input is incomplete, return a usable first version and mark missing information and assumptions.

Reference Files

• prompts/api-test-postman.md: main prompt for this skill.
• references/framework-spec.md: tool-specific structure and coverage notes.
• references/setup-and-ci.md: setup, execution, and CI notes.
• examples/sample-context.md: sample request context.
• scripts/run-tests.sh: lightweight local execution entry point.

Common Pitfalls

• Do not use it with vague scope and no context.
• Do not treat every area as equally important.
• Do not skip assumptions and missing information.

Best Practices

• Start from the prompt file, then add only the context that matters.
• Keep the output risk-driven and executable.
• If the request is incomplete, return a usable first version and mark gaps.
