Your post definition states that a body is required. However, you have not defined what the shape of the data is that must go into that body.

Here is an example that assumes your TestRequest is defined inside components/schemas.

paths:
  /test:
    post:
      description: An example referencing TestRequest
      requestBody:
        required: true
        content:
          application/json:
            schema:
              $ref: '#/components/schemas/TestRequest'
