A single successful AI API request is not enough for production.
If your app uses GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Qwen, or other models through one OpenAI-compatible API gateway, I think the integration should be tested as a system: configuration, SDK compatibility, model names, JSON output, latency, retries, fallback, and Postman verification.
I published the full checklist here:
