=====================================

This repository contains a Python + FastAPI microservice and API autotests

The microservice provides the following API endpoints:

• GET /api/users: Returns a list of all users
• GET /api/users/{user_id}: Returns a single user by ID
• POST /api/users: Creates a new user
• PUT /api/users/{user_id}: Updates an existing user
• DELETE /api/users/{user_id}: Deletes a user

The microservice stores data in a text file for now, but will be migrated to a database in future iterations.

The API autotests cover the following scenarios:

• Successful creation of a new user
• Successful retrieval of a single user by ID
• Successful retrieval of a list of users
• Successful update of an existing user
• Successful deletion of a user

The test data is generated using the Faker library and is stored in the reqres_tests/utils directory.

To install the required dependencies, navigate to the repository root and execute the following command:

pip install -r requirements.txt

This will install the necessary dependencies, including FastAPI, Uvicorn, and Pytest.

To run the microservice execute the following command:

uvicorn reqres_app.main:app --reload

This will start the microservice on http://localhost:8000.

To run the autotests execute the following command:

pytest

The code is organized into the following directories:

• reqres_app: Contains the FastAPI microservice code and the text file storing user data
• reqres_tests/utils: Contains utility files for test data generation
• tests: Contains the API autotests
