You can also run the tests with Valgrind by directly calling the runtests.sh script.

The <query> part is basically just the path of the API without the preceding /v1/public/. (see also developer.marvel.com/docs)
For example:
./build/marvel comics
./build/marvel comics/{comicId}
./build/marvel comics/{comicId}/characters
...
