b2b-backend-api-test-plan-knowledge

What problem does it solve?

This knowledge base provides a structured framework for writing comprehensive API test plans for B2B backend services, enabling consistent planning and reproducible tests.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Continuous multi-step test plan design for changed endpoints.
• Enforce 12-section plan structure, including change overview, test design principles, impact scope, API call chains, state transition tables, sequential flows, high-risk (X-IDs), edge cases (E-IDs), test data, monitoring configuration (filter-pattern, devdb SQL, Sentry), deployment pre-checklists, and QA results summary.
• Mandatory keyword tagging (required/error/negation/quantity) and explicit expected results per scenario.
• Monitoring-ready outputs: filter-pattern blocks, SQL queries, and Sentry search expressions; supports immediate copy-paste.
• Case-by-case test data specification (headers, URLs, shop, customer, etc.).

Quick Start

Create a multi-step API test plan for a changed endpoint, including 12 sections, keyword tagging, monitoring setup, and a basic data schema.
