What are Test Cases?

A Test Case in PostQode represents a sequence of API requests with defined validations and expected responses. It serves as a blueprint for testing API functionality, containing all necessary components, such as request parameters, headers, authentication details, and assertions to verify that the API behaves correctly.

Each Test Case follows a structured format, which allows you to configure request details, set up data validations, and define expected outcomes through the low-code interface of the platform. You can also include pre-conditions, test data, and post-conditions to ensure comprehensive API testing.
