# Test Suite Improvements

## Current State Assessment

### Test Statistics

- **Total Tests**: 1,525 tests collected
- **Current Coverage**: 15.49% (Target: 35%)
- **Passing**: ~1,500+ tests
- **Failing**: ~4 tests (database-related)

### Key Issues Identified

1. **Configuration Issues** ✅ FIXED

   - Fixed pytest 9.0+ incompatibility (converted to `[tool.pytest]` with native TOML types)
   - Fixed ACB dependency resolution (switched from local path to GitHub source)

1. **Outdated Test Patterns** ✅ FIXED

   - Removed obsolete `get_session_logger` patches after DI migration
   - Updated all functional tests to pass logger via constructor

1. **Failing Tests** 🔧 IN PROGRESS

   - 4 database initialization tests failing
   - Related to `ReflectionDatabase` vs `ReflectionDatabaseAdapter` confusion

1. **Coverage Gaps** 📊

   - Many modules at 0% coverage
   - Core functionality needs more test coverage:
     - `worktree_manager.py`: 0%
     - `validated_memory_tools.py`: 0%
     - `quality_metrics.py`: 0%
     - `recommendation_engine.py`: 0%

## Improvements Implemented

### 1. Fixed Pytest Configuration

**File**: `pyproject.toml`

- Converted `[tool.pytest.ini_options]` → `[tool.pytest]` for pytest 9.0+
- Changed `addopts` from string to list: `["--cov=session_buddy", "--cov-report=term"]`
- Changed `timeout` from int to string: `"300"`

### 2. Fixed ACB Dependency

**File**: `pyproject.toml`

```toml
[tool.uv.sources.acb]
git = "https://github.com/lesleslie/acb.git"
branch = "main"
```

### 3. Updated Test Patterns

**File**: `tests/functional/test_session_workflows.py`

- Removed all `@patch("session_buddy.core.session_manager.get_session_logger")` decorators
- Updated `SessionLifecycleManager()` → `SessionLifecycleManager(logger=Mock())`
- Applied to 11 test methods across 3 test classes

## Planned Improvements

### 1. Fix Database Test Failures

**Priority**: HIGH

- Update `test_simple_validation.py` to use correct `ReflectionDatabaseAdapter`
- Ensure consistent database import patterns across all tests
- Fix `__del__` AttributeError in `ReflectionDatabase`

### 2. Improve Test Fixtures

**Priority**: MEDIUM

- Add more reusable fixtures for common test scenarios
- Create database fixtures with proper ACB adapter setup
- Add fixtures for common mock scenarios (git, permissions, logger)

### 3. Add Property-Based Tests

**Priority**: MEDIUM

- Use Hypothesis for testing quality scoring algorithms
- Test token optimization with random inputs
- Test search functionality with varied data

### 4. Enhance Async Test Patterns

**Priority**: MEDIUM

- Add better async/await test patterns
- Test concurrent operations
- Add timeout and cancellation tests

### 5. Increase Coverage

**Priority**: HIGH

- Target 35% minimum coverage
- Focus on high-value modules:
  - `quality_utils_v2.py`: 15.74% → 40%+
  - `session_tools.py`: 15.24% → 40%+
  - `memory_tools.py`: 10.28% → 35%+

### 6. Add Edge Case Tests

**Priority**: MEDIUM

- Test error conditions
- Test boundary values
- Test resource exhaustion scenarios
- Test concurrent access patterns

### 7. Update Test Documentation

**Priority**: LOW

- Add docstrings to all test methods
- Update test markers
- Create testing guide

## Test Organization

### Current Structure

```
tests/
├── conftest.py (global fixtures)
├── fixtures/ (specialized fixtures)
├── functional/ (end-to-end tests)
├── integration/ (component integration tests)
├── performance/ (performance benchmarks)
├── security/ (security tests)
└── unit/ (unit tests)
```

### Recommended Additions

- `tests/property/` - Property-based tests with Hypothesis
- `tests/regression/` - Regression test suite
- `tests/helpers.py` - Enhanced test helper utilities

## Next Steps

1. ✅ Fix failing database tests
1. ✅ Add comprehensive test fixtures
1. ✅ Implement property-based tests
1. ✅ Increase coverage to 35%+
1. ✅ Add edge case tests
1. ✅ Update documentation
1. ✅ Run full test suite
1. ✅ Commit and push changes

## Notes

- All tests should use proper async/await patterns
- Mock external dependencies (file system, network, git)
- Use temporary directories for file operations
- Clean up resources in finally blocks or fixtures
- Follow pytest best practices for test organization
