[Feedhenry-raincatcher] Suggestion for more confidence in automated raincatcher tests

[Niall Donnelly]

Hi David

Yes, definitely. it is something we are looking into in the coming sprints
to have a more comprehensive set of tests for our modules and demo apps.

It would be useful to take a look at how fh-mbaas-api does it. Thanks for
the info.

Thanks
Niall
