Testing API Integration

After creating test users, you can immediately test the authentication API:

# Create test user
my-app auth create-test-user --email "api@test.com" --password "test123"

# Test login endpoint
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/auth/token \
  -d "username=api@test.com&password=test123"

# Use returned token for protected endpoints
curl -X GET http://localhost:8000/auth/me \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"
