As a DeveloperI need to modify the Delete endpoint to ensure it follows RESTful principles.
so that the Delete operation behaves idempotently, returning 204_NO_CONTENT even if called multiple times.
Details and assumptions
The Delete route should return 204_NO_CONTENT on a successful deletion, regardless of whether the resource was already deleted.
It should never return 404_NOT_FOUND because RESTful principles dictate that Delete is idempotent.
Test cases should be updated to reflect this behavior.
Acceptance Criteria:
Given a product exists
When I delete the product for the first time
Then I should receive a 204_NO_CONTENT response.
Given a product was already deleted
When I attempt to delete it again
Then I should receive the same 204_NO_CONTENT response.
