Tests protected API endpoints using cookie-based JWT authentication and automated test scripts.
The Route Tester skill simplifies the validation of authenticated API endpoints within complex projects. It provides standardized patterns for handling cookie-based JWT authentication via Keycloak, enabling developers to test GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE operations seamlessly. By integrating specialized test scripts, mock authentication for development, and manual curl commands, it helps identify and resolve 401, 403, and 500 errors. The skill also includes mapping for various microservices and checklists for verifying database state changes after successful route execution.
