assignment-3 — States API (Node)

This collection exercises a simple REST API for Indian states data (e.g., population, literacy, GDP, budget). It includes endpoints to list, fetch by id, fetch top GDP, create, update (full/partial), and delete states.

Base URL

This collection is currently configured against the Render deployment:

{{baseUrl}} = https://node-assignment-3-1-29zi.onrender.com

\n
Note: Requests are written using {{baseUrl}} so you can switch environments quickly.
\n

Authentication

No auth is configured in the collection. If your deployment requires auth, add it at the collection level (Authorization tab) so all requests inherit it.

Data model (typical)

Most endpoints return a state object or an array of state objects. A typical state contains fields similar to:

{\n  \"id\": 1,\n  \"stateName\": \"Gujarat\",\n  \"population\": 63872399,\n  \"literacy\": 78.03,\n  \"gdp\": 250000,\n  \"budget\": 30000\n}\n

(Field names can vary depending on the server implementation.)

Running with Collection Runner

Recommended order: run the requests in the existing order (top to bottom) unless you customize IDs/names.
Several requests modify data (POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE). If your backend is not resettable, prefer running against a test dataset.
If an endpoint requires a specific existing id (e.g., /states/2), update the path variable to match your dataset.

Examples & tests

Each request should have at least one saved Example response (used for documentation and can power mocks).
Basic tests should validate:
- status code is in the expected range
- response is valid JSON (when applicable)
- response shape is object/array (lightweight schema checks)
