Testing Strategy

The stable CI smoke/regression collection is the strict passing quality
gate.

The complete validation collection preserves positive, negative,
boundary, authorization and confirmed-defect coverage. Its 10 known
failed assertions remain visible without overriding a successful CI
quality gate.

The final workflow displays one expected error annotation from Newman's
nonzero complete-suite exit code and one informational notice explaining
the documented requirement mismatches.

Confirmed API Findings

  • Invalid booking-date sequences are accepted during creation and update
  • Zero and negative total prices are accepted
  • Missing required fields return HTTP 500 instead of a clear HTTP 400 or
    HTTP 422 client-validation response

Security

  • Public environment credentials remain blank
  • Local environments remain excluded from Git
  • GitHub Actions credentials use repository secrets
  • Active tokens are not committed
  • Generated local Newman results remain ignored
  • Public screenshots and exports were reviewed for sensitive values

Previous Baseline

The Day 5 manual, API and database testing baseline remains available as
release v1.0.0.
