+## Testing
+
+When writing tests for new API endpoints, consider using a schema [fixture](./testing_guide/best_practices.md#fixtures) located in `/spec/fixtures/api/schemas`. You can `expect` a response to match a given schema:
+
+```ruby
+expect(response).to match_response_schema('merge_requests')
