After deploying a permit API to the shared sandbox, engineers need confidence before asking QA for sign-off. What should they do next?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Deployed beats theoretical. Hit the sandbox stage, watch CloudWatch, and only then ping QA—municipal permits deserve that smoke check. Template reading alone will not catch a bad IAM permission at runtime.
Full Explanation
Testing deployed code with AWS services in non-production is a Domain 3 Task 2 skill. After a sandbox deploy, developers should exercise the live API stage and review CloudWatch logs (and other AWS diagnostics) before promoting. Skipping to production, limiting checks to local unit tests, or reviewing templates without invocation leaves integration defects undiscovered.
