Add automated tests to your requests:

// Test response status
pm.test("Status code is 200", function () {
    pm.response.to.have.status(200);
});

// Test response time
pm.test("Response time is less than 2000ms", function () {
    pm.expect(pm.response.responseTime).to.be.below(2000);
});

// Test response data
pm.test("Response has required fields", function () {
    const jsonData = pm.response.json();
    pm.expect(jsonData).to.have.property('id');
    pm.expect(jsonData).to.have.property('name');
});

Collection Runner

Run all tests in your collection:

1. Open Collection Runner: Click "Run" on your collection
2. Select Tests: Choose which tests to run
