How do you Unit Test a WebAPI? What do you test?
So what I usually do is: • Unit test underlying (public) services and application ‘core’ • Integration test (or w/e you call it) an entire functionality flow, by sending in ‘real’ requests on one end, and locally mocking/stubbing the application ‘edges’ that supply the response data. WireMock for requests to external services, H2 or Testcontainers for database.

EF Core In-Memory DB (for testing) does not allow List<int> property even though this is something Postgres does. How would I go about testing this?
I'd use testcontainers to spin up an instance of Progress and run against the actual thing. That way you get the benefit of testing against the actual database, but also that you don't have to set up a bunch of stuff locally.
Not every db support array as primitive, if you want to write integration tests and you have access to docker I suggest you testcontainers.

Does anyone have a good functional (integration? end to end?) automated Web API testing setup?
There is a rope which can help with this task: https://github.com/HofmeisterAn/dotnet-testcontainers

Integration testing with EF Core, part 2
Dotnet.Testcontainers also comes with some built-in classes that wraps various services, one of these classes actually wraps a SQL Server Docker container and there are few more that covers the most common databases e.g.

End to end testing is confusing
You should also check out Docker, especially TestContainers. That way you can spin up databases (and other dependencies) on the fly and do operations on them. This means that you don't need to "fake" a database, as you will have access to a new one.
