Question #: 55
Topic #: 4

A developer is creating an ecommerce workflow in an AWS Step Functions state machine that includes an HTTP Task state. The task passes shipping information and order details to an endpoint.

The developer needs to test the workflow to confirm that the HTTP headers and body are correct and that the responses meet expectations.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

AUse the TestState API to invoke only the HTTP Task. Set the inspection level to TRACE.

BUse the TestState API to invoke the state machine. Set the inspection level to DEBUG.

CUse the data flow simulator to invoke only the HTTP Task. View the request and response data.

DChange the log level of the state machine to ALL. Run the state machine.

Show Suggested Answer

D) changing the log level? What is this, the 90s? Let's keep it modern with the data flow simulator!

B) is a good option if you want to test the entire state machine, but that's overkill if you just need to check the HTTP task.

I'm not sure why anyone would choose A) - invoking just the HTTP Task doesn't give you the full picture of the workflow.

C) is the way to go! The data flow simulator is perfect for testing individual tasks in the workflow.
