File contents

Validate the changes you've made by testing them against the locally running application:

  1. Figure out what you changed and what needs testing — review recent diffs or your current task context.
  2. Determine how to reach the app (check for running servers, common ports, env files, docker-compose, etc.).
  3. Make real requests using curl, httpie, or similar tools to exercise the affected endpoints or functionality.
  4. Verify the responses are correct — check status codes, response bodies, error cases, and edge cases.
  5. If something is broken, fix it and re-test.
  6. Report a summary of what you tested and the results.

Be thorough: don't just hit the happy path. Test error cases, missing fields, invalid input, and boundary conditions where relevant.
