Project Details

This is just a weekend project. Every time I build a new feature—even with unit and integration tests, there are moments where a simple smoke or sanity test is still needed. For web APIs like REST, I usually use tools like Postman, Insomnia, or even plain curl. After repeating the same steps over and over, I figured: why not just write the steps once in a YAML file and run them with a single command like smoketest steps.yaml?
