Replace monolithic postman.md with focused, namespaced commands: - setup: guided API key config and workspace verification - sync: create/update collections from OpenAPI specs - codegen: generate typed client code from collections - search: discover APIs across private workspaces - test: run collection tests and diagnose failures - mock: create mock servers with auto-generated examples - docs: analyze, improve, and publish API documentation - security: OWASP API Top 10 security audit Each command has proper frontmatter, error handling with actionable next steps, and handles known MCP limitations (async polling, private search, etc.).

# Run Collection Tests
|
|
|
|
Execute Postman collection tests directly from Claude Code. Analyze results, diagnose failures, and suggest code fixes.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
The Postman MCP Server must be connected. If MCP tools aren't available, tell the user: "Run `/postman:setup` to configure the Postman MCP Server."
|
|
|
|
## Workflow
|
|
|
|
### Step 1: Find the Collection
|
|
|
|
1. Call `getWorkspaces` to find the target workspace
|
|
2. Call `getCollections` with the `workspace` parameter. Use the `name` filter if the user specified a collection.
|
|
3. If the user provides a collection ID directly, skip to Step 2.
|
|
|
|
### Step 2: Run Tests
|
|
|
|
Call `runCollection` with the collection UID in `OWNER_ID-UUID` format. Get the UID from the `getCollection` response's `uid` field.
|
|
|
|
If the collection uses environment variables:
|
|
1. Call `getEnvironments` to list available environments
|
|
2. Ask which environment to use (or detect from naming convention)
|
|
3. Pass the environment ID to `runCollection`
|
|
|
|
### Step 3: Parse Results
|
|
|
|
Present results clearly:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Test Results: Pet Store API
|
|
Requests: 15 executed
|
|
Passed: 12 (80%)
|
|
Failed: 3
|
|
Avg time: 245ms
|
|
|
|
Failures:
|
|
1. POST /users → "Status code is 201" → Got 400
|
|
Request: createUser
|
|
Folder: User Management
|
|
|
|
2. GET /users/{id} → "Response has email field" → Missing
|
|
Request: getUser
|
|
Folder: User Management
|
|
|
|
3. DELETE /users/{id} → "Status code is 204" → Got 403
|
|
Request: deleteUser
|
|
Folder: User Management
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 4: Diagnose Failures
|
|
|
|
For each failure:
|
|
1. Call `getCollectionRequest` to see the full request definition
|
|
2. Call `getCollectionResponse` to see expected responses
|
|
3. Check if the API source code is in the current project
|
|
4. Explain what the test expected vs what happened
|
|
5. If code is local, find the handler and suggest the fix
|
|
|
|
### Step 5: Fix and Re-run
|
|
|
|
After fixing code:
|
|
1. Offer to re-run: "Tests fixed. Want me to run the collection again?"
|
|
2. Call `runCollection` again
|
|
3. Show before/after comparison
|
|
|
|
### Step 6: Update Collection (if needed)
|
|
|
|
If the tests themselves need updating (not the API):
|
|
- Call `updateCollectionRequest` to fix request bodies, headers, or test scripts
|
|
- Call `updateCollectionResponse` to update expected responses
|
|
|
|
## Error Handling
|
|
|
|
- **MCP not configured:** "Run `/postman:setup` to configure the Postman MCP Server."
|
|
- **Collection not found:** "No collection matching that name. Run `/postman:search` to find available collections, or `/postman:sync` to create one."
|
|
- **401 Unauthorized:** "Your Postman API key was rejected. Generate a new one at https://postman.postman.co/settings/me/api-keys and run `/postman:setup`."
|
|
- **MCP timeout:** Retry once. For large collections, suggest running a single folder to narrow the test run.
|
|
- **Plan limitations:** "Collection runs may require a Postman Basic plan or higher for increased limits."
