Actually since all the coolant went back into the radiator upon cooling, the radiator cap is doing at the very least an adequate job. I recommend you look at the water pump on the front of the engine to see if there are any traces of coolant in the "Weep hole" or underneath it.

Well, if the coolant didn't go back into the radiator upon cooling, the radiator cap is suspect. Good luck
