Why This Workflow Matters
About This Workflow
- Covers SOAP-style XML, catalog-style XML, nested JSON payloads, and malformed/truncated cases.
- Useful for API schema validation, parser compatibility, and negative contract tests.
- Includes real larger JSON fixtures when contract or replay tests need size-sensitive payload handling.
- Anchored to a contract pack so API fixture suites can start from one download.
