A
B
D
I
hope
you
can
see
my
screen
right:
yeah,
okay,
cool.
So,
for
example,
let
me
create
a
new
branch
so
which
is
like
test
one,
maybe
and
done
so.
Basically,
I'm
from
a
qa
background,
I'm
not
a
developer,
I'm
from
a
testing
background,
so
I
am
exploring
this
test
tab
available
in
insomnia.
So
that
is
what
I
would
want
to.
You
know
be
more
using
in
my
project
so
yeah
I
had
created.
I
guess
test
one
branch:
is
it
not
created.
D
D
D
A
D
D
B
B
E
E
E
D
B
I
think
if
you
also
want
to
use
the
tests
for
combining
this
with
inso,
for
example,
and
running
your
tests
on
on
a
command
line
on
a
cicd
environment,
you
should
also
commit
the
requests,
because
the
tests
are
gonna.
Try
to
find
these
request
objects
to
run
them
and
your
environments,
so
you,
you
probably
should
commit
all
of
these
things.
Unless
you
know
you
don't
need
something.
D
D
Sure,
okay
yeah,
so
I
will
go
to
the
other
project,
which
is
this
plm
one
now
so
here
I
created
one
test
suite
and
I
have
written
this
code
here.
Okay,
and
how
did
I
write
is
there
is
a
you
know,
token
api
which
is
generating
me
one
token,
and
so
this
token
is
generated
and
the
same
token
I
am
using
in
the
next
request,
which
is
nothing,
but
so
this,
like
get
token,
will
be
kind
of
user
name
and
password.
D
I'm
trying
with
one
website
and
get
season
is
getting
me
a
list
of
some.
You
know
seasons
where
I'm
putting
this
better
token
as
this
and
I'm
sending
this
okay.
So
this
is
returning
me
this
now.
What
I'm
doing
is
I'm
copying
the
code
from
here
and
I'm
trying
to
run
this
code
basically
same
thing.
I
did
with
the
token
one
generate
code
and
control
a
control
c
so
and
I'm
going
to
the
test
tab
here
I
created
a
new
test
token
one
new
test.
D
D
D
E
D
Yes,
yes,
so
because
see
in
my
project
we
are,
I
will
give
you
some
more
background.
Maybe
why
I'm
applying
that
so,
for
example,
I
want
to
run
some
negative
tests,
okay,
and
for
that,
what
I
want
to
do
is
I
want
to
run
this
for
loop,
so
this
is
a
pet
store
project
where
I
don't
have
any
tokens
and
all.
But
what
I
want
to
achieve
here
is,
I
am
running
a
for
loop
and
I
want
to
run
this.
D
You
know
copied
request
multiple
times
and
I
want
to
read
the
json,
which
has
different
different
kind
of
values.
So
this
is
the
negative
api
testing
I'm
going
to
do
where
suppose
the
json
payload
has
five
fields.
I
will
make
all
these
five
fields
kind
of
incorrect
like
like.
I
will
prepare
five
different
json
files.
I
will
keep
four
fields
correct
and
one
field
incorrect
and
I'll
do
it
for
all
the
five
fields,
so
this
is
kind
of
a
negative
test.
I
am
expecting
that
that
api
will
be
failing.
D
D
B
B
I
think
we
should
be
able
to
do
the
training
use
the
training
feature
to
grab
the
token
and
then
use
the
templates
to
just
you
know.
Just
put
the
token
on
the
request
you
want
to
make
and
make
it
like
that,
and
then
perhaps
you
can
have
like
four
different
tests,
each
one
running
a
different
json
thing
or
just
copy
paste,
with
four
different
json
things.
B
E
And
yeah
yeah
exactly
and
then
here
in
your
bearer,
you
can
go
to
where
yeah
the
security
token.
So
could
you
just
so
we
see
what
it
looks
like
you
can
close
the
def
it'll
be
easier.
If
you
can
close
the
devtools,
could
you
go
to
the
token
request?
You
have
there
and
send
it.
So
we
can
see
what
the
response
looks
like.
B
E
A
D
B
E
E
B
D
E
C
E
A
E
D
D
E
D
D
It
here
I
just
copy
pasted
that
code
forget,
and
I
just
wanted
to
run
it
without
like
I
just
wanted
to
use
it
with
that
token,
and
even
the
get
request
is
not
going
through.
It
is
showing
me
error,
right
yeah.
This
is
what
I'm
talking
about
so
here.
It
is
not
a
post
request,
though,
but
I
just
wanted
to
try
it
for
the
get
request
itself
and
it
is
showing
me
error
that
it
is
not
authenticated.
E
A
D
D
A
D
E
We
know
that,
because
we
watched
it
happen
in
this
pr,
you
can
call
the
token
by
id,
like
you
can
call
the
you
can
send
a
request
and
get
a
response
inside
the
test,
and
you
can
just
do
response
dot
body.
Whatever
would
be,
you
would
json
parse.
You
know
this
response
that
body
and
then
you
would
take
dot
token
out
of
that.
E
E
E
D
A
D
D
B
B
F
B
B
D
B
B
A
E
E
It
happens
to
be
that
the
test
first
needs
to
call
a
token
endpoint
to
get
a
token
to
be
able
to
send
the
request
that
it
needs
so
just
table
that
for
a
second,
he
has
some
json
files
on
disk
and
he
wants
to
send
those
the
values
of
those
json
files
in
a
loop
to
multiple
the
same
request,
the
one
that
calls
the
you
know
token
endpoint
or
well
needs
the
one
that
needs
a
token.
It
doesn't
actually
call
the
endpoint,
but
the
one
that
needs
a
token.
E
F
For
right
off
the
bat
of
my
head,
like,
I
know
that
we
don't
officially
support
that
thing
of
reading
from
a
file
programmatically
on
the
test
code
itself.
He
figured
it
out
like
there's
there's
a
handful
of
things
that
you
could
try
here.
One
of
them
is
on
your
on
the
last
test
that
you
were
developing
on
the
bottom.
The
tests
underscore
token.
F
One
thing
that
you
could
try
and
play
around
with
is
take
into
account
that
your
request,
when
you
select
the
one
that
the
the
opposite,
one
of
get
it
off
post
token.
What
what
was
it?
It
was
get
streams,
seasons
right,
you
could
try
and
switch
to
that
one,
and
the
other
thing
that
you
could
try
is
on
the
test
code
itself.
F
D
F
E
Go
ahead,
do
you
mean
so
this
is
broken
right
now,
but
there's
there's
a
fix
for
it
that
we
can
or
work
around
we
can
use.
So
let's
go
to
the
debug
tab
again
and
select
the
request
that
you
want
to
put
in
there.
Okay
and
then
click
on
that
yep
click
on
that
little
drop
down
there
and
click
settings.
E
See
at
the
very
top
it
says,
req
and
then
underscore
and
then
there's
like
seven,
if
you
just
copy
that.
Yes,
if
you
copy
that
and
then
go
back
and
put
it
into
the
code,
that
will
that's
the
same
thing
that
it
would
be
yeah
exactly
so,
instead
of
send
you
would
inside
send,
I
think
you
put
the
you
would
put
double
quotes
and
paste
that
and
it
would
send
some
different
that
different
request.
E
E
E
D
A
D
F
D
So,
okay,
so
this
thing
whatever
I
want
to
achieve
right,
I
could
achieve
it
just
for
you.
I
know
knowledge
I
could
achieve
it
in
pet
store.
I
am
using
different,
you
know
json
files
and
I
could
put
a
for
loop
on
it.
So
this
is
my
code,
but
the
only
good
thing
here
is
it
was
not
using
the
token
whenever
this
token
is
coming
into
picture.
My
code
is
failing
in
the
other.
D
B
B
D
Up
that
was
that
was
my
next
question
like
see.
Currently
I
require
this
file.
I
am
hard
coding
this
complete
code.
Okay,
in
usual
projects.
We
just
give
the
you
know
we
can
put
these
files
in
some
project
folder,
where
we
don't
have
to
give
this
absolute
path.
We
can
simply
give
or
create
this
folder
somewhere
in
the
project
directory,
and
we
can
use
such
kind
of
things
right
so
that.
A
B
Sorry
I
was,
I
was
trying
to
say
yeah
in
your
case.
What
I
would
try
to
do
is
because
that
because
then
it
would
be
able
to
be
shared.
With
my
you
know,
with
my
colleagues
or
running
the
ci,
you
could
use
the
environment
to
to
like
store
the
data
you
want
for
you
as
your
fixer
data
or
and
have
like
different
requests.
D
D
B
C
It
it
sounds
like
you,
you
need
to
use
the
request
as
a
template,
my
understanding
right.
So
what
if
we
we
provide
a
button
in
the
test,
the
test
role,
let's
say,
add
payload
and
then
in
this
with
this
payload
button,
you
you
click
it
and
it
opens
up
model,
and
then
it
allows
you
to
put
at
least
a
payload
that
you
want
to
run
through
with
this
test.
C
C
C
B
B
B
D
E
D
E
E
E
The
scripting
capability
is
not
really
set
up
for
this
kind
of
use
case
in
a
number
of
different
fronts
like
you've.
You
have
found
workarounds
here
by
requiring
local
json
files
and
other
things
like
for
things
that
were
you're
not
theoretically
supposed
to
be
able
to
do,
but
which
I'm
very
happy
that
you
figured
it
out.
You
know
because
it's
cool
to
see
what
people
are
are
coming
up
with
it's
inspiring
to
see
what
people
are
coming
up
with,
but
in
general
yeah,
even
like
you,
you
got
it.
E
E
E
The
database
stores
these
files
on
disk
and
you
can
mutate
them.
Maybe
james
knows
where
I'm
going.
You
can
maybe
mutate
them.
So
if
you
can
call
out
to
that
that
local
file,
where
your
insomnia
data
directory
is
you
might
be
able
to
from
the
test
modify
the
database
object
then
send
the
request
as
normal
as
normal,
but
you
modified
it
so
but,
like
you,
might
be
able
to
programmatic
programmatically
change
the
database
file
and
get
it
to
work.
E
Now,
that's
a
different
thing
than
what
the
you
know
like
in
memory
constructs
are
because
that's
just
the
kind
of
a
cache.
If
you
want
to
think
of
it
that
way.
What's
on
disk,
but
I'm
not
sure
if
it
would
reload
or
read
it,
it
might
read
it
so,
it's
possible,
you
could
do
something
like
that,
like
remotely
possible,
and
if
you
have
access
to
window,
you
might
be
able
to
chase
that
dragon
further
down
the
rabbit,
hole
and
and
get
like
and
mutate.
E
The
the
request,
but
I
have
to
say
the
reason
this
is
terrible,
is
because
if
you
did
something
like
this,
you
would
strongly
run
the
risk
of
corrupting
you
know
pretty
much
everything
on
the
screen
in
front
of
you,
but
it
is
javascript.
So,
like
you
know,
that's
the
way
that
javascript
is,
you
can
do
this
kind
of
stuff.
You
can
eval
your
way
through
the
problem,
but
I
don't
think
you
should
try.
If
it
were
me,
I
wouldn't
even
try
because
then
I
don't,
I
wouldn't
want
to
lose
stuff.
B
B
So
I
think
that
fits
more
into
this
picture
of
why
it's
hard
to
do
this
kind
of
things,
because
inso
runs
with
the
next
port
of
your
stuff,
but
it
it
can
run
from
like
anywhere
so
yeah.
You
know
it
can
run
on
your
ci.
So
if
you
run
it
on
your
ci
trying
to
require
a
five
because
it's
gonna
run
the
tests,
so
in
your
ci
trying
to
require
any
file
you
try
to
load
needs
to
be.
B
E
I,
like
james's
answer
the
most
like
whatever
you
take
away
from
this
call,
I
think
one
thing
you
could
try
to
really
think
about
doing
is
just
inlining
the
json.
You
don't
need
to
have
a
separate
file
on
disk.
You
could
just
put
it
right
here
the
text
of
the
json
file
into
this
test.
You
have
as
many
lines
as
you
need
and
then
from
there
you
can
do
you
need
to
use
those
json
files
in
more
than
one
test.
E
D
I
hear
you
actually,
we
are
testing
the
apis
for
the
first
time
in
our
project,
okay,
and
they
have
asked
us
to
all
you
know:
field
validations,
like
suppose
there
is
some
item
id
or
some
id,
so
they
want
us
to
test
it
for
like
format
of
the
id,
the
text
and
the
length
and
everything
for
each
and
every
field.
So
that's
where
we
got
this.
You
know
idea
of
automating
it
using
the
insomnia,
so
we
will
be
running
it.
Of
course,
multiple
times.
E
E
D
Yes,
yes,
we
okay!
Yes,
we
can
do
that,
but
see
this
is
a
pet
store,
json
right,
it
is
having
very
little
body
the
problem
which
I
will
be
dealing
with
in
you
know
my
project
I
would
show
so
it
will
be
like
this
much
big
payloads,
so
yeah
big
ones-
oh
yeah
yeah.
It
will
like
this.
So
this
is
one
where
I
am
putting
all
the
fields
wrong,
but
one
feels
right
in
the
next
json.
I
will
correct
these
two
fields
in
the
third
json.
D
E
C
E
But
I
mean
essentially,
this
is
john.
The
thing
that
the
thing
we
gotta
say
like
I,
I
don't
think
you're
gonna
have
a
lot
you're
gonna
be
able
to
do
what
you
wanna
do
right
now,
except
we're
gonna
think
about
it.
I'm
sure
like
if
we
come
up
with
something
I'll.
Let
you
know
on
the
like:
insomniac
community,
slack
or
email
you
or
something,
but
it's
not
really.
C
A
A
C
E
E
E
E
E
So
you
take
the
keys
and
you
would
go
through
and
add
up
an
array
of
the
keys
and
each
time
you
go
through
the
list,
add
one
more
from
the
correct
one
and
swap
out
the
values
so
that
you
can
generate
all
of
your
permutations
so
that
you
don't
have
to
create
new
json
files.
Every
time
you
have
a
new
permutation,
do
you
see
what
I'm
saying.
E
In
javascript
in
general,
right
so
in
the
test,
so
you
would
you
would
take
the
the
keys
like
in
your
array.
Actually
what
you're
looping
through
is
the
index
of
the
keys
of
the
json
file,
so
you
would
be
looping
through
an
array
that
has
as
many
iterations
as
there
are
keys
in
the
json
file.
So
if
you
have
10
keys,
then
you
would
have
10
iterations.
I
guess.
D
E
So
if
we're
in
the
third
iteration,
we
would
swap
in
the
first
second
and
third
keys
from
the
correct.
So
we
have
the
incorrect.
We
always
start
every
time
with
the
incorrect
as
a
base,
but
then
we're
going
to
add
in
in
a
separate
internal
for
loop,
we're
going
to
add
in
the
correct
ones
respective
how
many
we're
going
to
go
up
to
how
whatever
the
top
level
index
is.
B
Yeah
there's
some
there's
some
testing
tools
that
that
do
this
thing
for
you,
like
you,
give
them
some
properties
and
then
they
just
like,
merge
them
and
do
crazy
stuff.
That
would
be
an
interesting
plug-in
to
see
in
insomnia.
You
know,
because
then
it
would
be
very
easy
to
just
just
click
a
button
and
test
your
api
with
many
values.
E
But
cool
so
we
got
to
get
going
though,
but
I'm
sorry
we
weren't
able
to.
Hopefully
it
helped
a
little
bit
to
you
know,
hear
about
it's
super.
It's
super
helpful
for
us
to
hear
about
what
you're
trying
to
do
with
it,
and
then
you
know
there's
nothing
that
anybody
can
do
to
get
that's
better
than
what
you're
doing
now
to
get
changes
to
happen
in
the
app,
because
now
that
we
understand
your
use
case,
all
of
us
know
about
it
and
when
we're
building
on
this
stuff
we
can
keep.
E
We
will
keep
your
use
case
in
mind
and
if
you
hadn't
reached
out
to
us,
we
wouldn't
have.
We
would
never
know
how
you're
using
it.
So
it's
really
we
really
appreciate
it
and
definitely
we
would
love
to
improve
the
testing
feature
in
so
many
different
ways.
We
have.
We
have
plans,
but
we're
pretty
focused
right
now
on
other
things,.
