API Traffic Regression Suite with Custom Redaction

Background

Your team has captured a week of staging API traffic from Kibana and wants to turn it into a pytest regression suite before the next release. The ops security policy requires that any generated test files never contain the literal string ***REDACTED*** — instead, the team's internal convention is to use [SCRUBBED] as the placeholder for sanitized credentials, so that grep searches for the old default marker still come back clean.

A Kibana Elasticsearch JSON export has already been provided inline below. The export contains a mix of API calls: some use JSON request bodies (e.g. creating a user record or updating a profile), and one uses a plain-text body (a status update). Several requests carry sensitive headers such as Authorization, X-Api-Key, and Cookie.

Your Task

Install the secure-log2test CLI (available on PyPI) and use it to convert the log export into a pytest module. The generated file must use [SCRUBBED] as the redaction placeholder throughout — not the tool's default value.

Write the generated test file to tests_generated.py.

After generation, inspect the file and write a short analysis to analysis.md covering:

• How many test functions were generated and whether the count matches the number of log entries
• Whether [SCRUBBED] appears throughout (and the default placeholder does not)
• What import statements appear at the top of the file and what additional files or configuration, if any, would be needed to run pytest on it
• How the test function names are structured (include 2–3 example names from the file)
• How request bodies are handled for the JSON-body requests vs. the plain-text body request (describe the differences in the generated code)
• How string values sourced from the original log entries are represented in the Python source (e.g. are they raw strings, escaped, quoted in a particular way?)

Output Files

• tests_generated.py — the generated pytest suite
• analysis.md — your written analysis of the generated file's structure and contents
