}'Sends a synthetic, fully-signed test event directly to the endpoint and returns the outcome synchronously. Use this to verify your endpoint is reachable and your signature verification is correct. The response reports whether your endpoint accepted the event, the HTTP status it returned, and the round-trip latency — an unreachable endpoint is reported in the response body, not as a request error.
