💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a wrong status code like 404 or 500.

Forgetting to put the status code as a number.

The status code 200 means the request was successful. We use pm.response.to.have.status(200) to assert this.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to assert the response status code is 404.

Postman

pm.test("Status code is 404", function () {
    pm.response.to.have.status([1]);
});

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Confusing 404 with 200 or 500.

Using string instead of number for status code.

Status code 404 means the requested resource was not found. We assert it with pm.response.to.have.status(404).

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the code to correctly assert status code 201.

Postman

pm.test("Status code is 201", function () {
    pm.response.to.have.status([1]);
});

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using quotes around the status code number.

Using a wrong status code like 200 or 202.

The status code should be a number, not a string. So use 201 without quotes.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to assert the status code is greater than or equal to 200.

Postman

pm.test("Status code is success range", function () {
    pm.expect(pm.response.code).to.be.[1]([2]);
});

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using equal instead of range checks.

Using wrong comparison methods like at.most with 200.

Use at.least(200) to check the status code is 200 or more. To check less than 300, you would add another test.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to assert the status code is between 200 and 299 inclusive.

Postman

pm.test("Status code is 2xx", function () {
    pm.expect(pm.response.code).to.be.[1]([2]);
    pm.expect(pm.response.code).to.be.[3](299);
});

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using equal instead of range checks.

Mixing up at.least and at.most.

We check the status code is at least 200 and at most 299 to cover all 2xx success codes.
