// Simplify the response, default to return JSON format
// * Caution Please *
// If you ever call any method of res object(this second argument) synchronously
// in your function, the middleware will ignore the return of your function.
// If you call any method of res object asynchronously but return anything except
// null/undefined at the same time, the return value will served as the result.
// So please use plain object for return or call specific method on res object.
// Do not mixing them up!
module.exports = function(req) {
return {
success: true,
msg: req.params.test_id
})
}
// Define different HTTP methods

__GET: {
