Can I test authenticated API requests?

Yes, the skill includes patterns for testing JWT-protected endpoints, including scenarios for both authenticated and unauthenticated access.

What testing framework does this skill use?

The skill utilizes Symfony's native ApiTestCase, which is built on top of PHPUnit, specifically designed for testing API Platform resources.

Does it support testing for specific API features like filters?

Absolutely. It provides specific implementation patterns for testing Search filters, Range filters, Order filters, and Hydra pagination.

How are database states managed between tests?

It implements the ResetDatabase trait from Zenstruck Foundry to ensure a fresh, consistent database state for every individual test execution.
