Testing Strategy

Ensure high quality through rigorous testing at all levels.

Backend (Python)

• •Framework: pytest.
• •Location: tests/unit, tests/integration.
• •Command: pytest or ./run_tests.sh.
• •Standards:
  • •Mock external services (AI providers, Database) in unit tests.
  • •Use fixtures for setup/teardown.
  • •Integration tests should use a test database or container.

Frontend (TypeScript)

• •Framework: Jest + React Testing Library.
• •Location: __tests__ directories co-located with components/pages.
• •Command: npm test (inside frontend/).
• •Standards:
  • •Test component rendering and user interactions.
  • •Mock API calls using Jest mocks.

End-to-End (E2E)

• •Framework: Playwright.
• •Location: tests/e2e (root) or frontend/e2e.
• •Command: npx playwright test.
• •Standards:
  • •Test critical user flows (Login, Search, Chat).
  • •Run against a running staging/dev environment.

CI/CD

• •Tests run automatically on PRs via GitHub Actions (.github/workflows/ci.yml).
• •Maintain coverage thresholds (Rule 3).
