+1. Install dependencies and start the development server from the Next.js app directory:
+   ```bash
+   cd sop-app
+   npm install
+   npm run dev
+   ```
+2. With the server running on [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000), hit the health-check endpoint:
+   ```bash
+   curl http://localhost:3000/api/test
+   # {"status":"ok"}
+   ```
+3. To verify request parsing via POST, send JSON data:
+   ```bash
+   curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/test \
+     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+     -d '{"message":"hello"}'
+   # {"status":"ok","received":{"message":"hello"}}
