At least one sensor with multiple channels configured (or manual data entries) + +### Test Scenario 1: Basic Multi-Channel Query + +**Goal**: Verify that multiple channels can be queried in a single request + +1. **Setup Test Data** (if needed): + Use the single-channel API to create test measurements: + ```bash + # Create temperature measurement + curl -X POST "https://localhost/api/measurements/create/test_sensor_001/C/0/25.5" \ + -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" + + # Create humidity measurement + curl -X POST "https://localhost/api/measurements/create/test_sensor_001/percent/1/65.3" \ + -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" + ``` + +2. **Query Multi-Channel**: + ```bash + curl -X POST "https://localhost/api/measurements/multi" \ + -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ + -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ + -d '{ + "channels": [ + {"unique_id": "test_sensor_001", "unit": "C", "channel": 0}, + {"unique_id": "test_sensor_001", "unit": "percent", "channel": 1} + ], + "past_seconds": 3600 + }' + ``` + +3. **Expected Result**: + - HTTP 200 status code + - JSON response with both measurements + - Each measurement should have: unique_id, unit, channel, time, and value + +### Test Scenario 2: Invalid Input Validation + +**Goal**: Verify proper error handling for invalid inputs + +1. **Test Empty Channels List**: + ```bash + curl -X POST "https://localhost/api/measurements/multi" \ + -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ + -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ +

Mycodo (if available) + +2. **Query All Channels**: + ```bash + curl -X POST "https://localhost/api/measurements/multi" \ + -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ + -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ + -d '{ + "channels": [ + {"unique_id": "YOUR_BME680_ID", "unit": "C", "channel": 0, "measure": "temperature"}, + {"unique_id": "YOUR_BME680_ID", "unit": "percent", "channel": 1,

+ ], + "past_seconds": 3600 + }' + ``` + +3. **Expected Result**: + - All four measurements returned + - Values should be realistic for sensor type + - Timestamps should be recent (within past_seconds) + +### Test Scenario 4: Missing Data Handling + +**Goal**: Verify graceful handling when data is not available + +1. **Query Non-Existent Sensor**: + ```bash + curl -X POST "https://localhost/api/measurements/multi" \ + -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ + -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ + -d '{ + "channels": [ + {"unique_id": "non_existent_sensor", "unit":

3; do + curl -s "https://localhost/api/measurements/last/YOUR_SENSOR_ID/UNIT/$i/3600" \ + -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" + done + ``` + +2. **Time Multi-Channel Request**: + ```bash + time

+ +### Test Scenario 6: Mixed Sensors + +**Goal**: Verify querying channels from different sensors + +1. **Query Multiple Sensors**: + ```bash + curl -X POST "https://localhost/api/measurements/multi"
