In our previous article, we explored the basics of unit testing in IRIS and the ways to apply it to a REST API. We even figured out how to test logic before finalizing network configurations and authentication, allowing us to focus solely on testing the API contents. Today, we will build upon that foundation and elevate our unit testing strategy by using another tool: %Populate .

We use a fraud detection scenario to show how graph patterns reveal what vector search alone would miss.


Why Fraud Detection Needs Graphs

Every year, businesses and consumers lose billions to fraud. In 2024 alone, consumers reported $12.5 billion lost—a 25% increase year over year. What makes modern fraud so difficult to detect is that fraudsters rarely work alone.
