# Postman API Testing (EN)
**Chinese version:** See the corresponding Chinese skill.
## When to Use
- Need outputs that should land in a Postman API testing workflow.
- The project already uses Postman or wants Postman-ready planning.
## Output Format Options
Markdown by default unless the request explicitly asks for another format.
## How to Use
1. Open `prompts/api-test-postman.md` and use it as the main prompt.
2. Add the real project context: scope, environment, constraints, risks, dependencies, and expected deliverable.
3. If the input is incomplete, return a usable first version and mark missing information and assumptions.
## Reference Files
- `prompts/api-test-postman.md`: main prompt for this skill.
- `references/framework-spec.md`: tool-specific structure and coverage notes.
- `references/setup-and-ci.md`: setup, execution, and CI notes.
- `examples/sample-context.md`: sample request context.
- `scripts/run-tests.sh`: lightweight local execution entry point.
## Common Pitfalls
- Do not use it with vague scope and no context.
- Do not treat every area as equally important.
- Do not skip assumptions and missing information.
## Best Practices
- Start from the prompt file, then add only the context that matters.
- Keep the output risk-driven and executable.
- If the request is incomplete, return a usable first version and mark gaps.
