+Bug Notes
+
+1. In schemas.py, the “name” field was set as an integer, but the API actually returns it as a string (for example, "ranger"). I updated the schema to match the API.
+
+2. The /pets/{id} endpoint returns inconsistent 404 responses. Some invalid IDs return a proper JSON message, while others (like -1) return an HTML page. I added a content-type check in the test to handle both cases.
+
+3. The /pets/findByStatus endpoint has a small issue in its error message — it uses '{status}' literally instead of showing the actual invalid status value.
+
+4. The app uses in-memory data, so creating or updating an order changes the pet status for future tests. It doesn’t break functionality but can cause inconsistent results across runs.
