Managing Projects: Browse Features and Endpoints
Navigate project dashboards, open features, and select endpoints so you can generate, edit, run, and review API test cases efficiently.
Overview
After API import, Shift Left Studio organizes your project into a hierarchy:
- Project: top-level workspace
- Features: API groups or tags from the specification
- Endpoints: method/path entries under each feature
This page explains how to navigate that hierarchy to reach the test case workflow.
Open the project dashboard
From the import summary, select Close to return to the project dashboard.
On the dashboard you can:
- view the newly created project
- see detected features from the imported API definition
- open a feature to inspect endpoints
Select a feature and endpoint
- Select a feature tile or list row.
- Review endpoints grouped under that feature.
- Select an endpoint to open its test case view.
Each endpoint row typically shows:
- HTTP method (
GET,POST,PUT,DELETE, etc.) - endpoint path
- available test actions
Generate, edit, and execute from endpoint view
Once you open an endpoint, continue with the core test workflow:
- Generate tests from the endpoint definition
- Edit parameters, request body, headers, and assertions
- Run a test case from the actions column
- Review pass/fail status and detailed result summary
Endpoint validation: Validate endpoints. Test design and runs: Test case and Run tests and review results.
Lifecycle and maintenance actions
When your project is in active use:
- keep imported definitions current
- remove obsolete tests
- adjust settings and access as team needs change
For lifecycle controls (save changes, archive/delete strategy), see Project settings.
