TESTS.md- Detailed test documentation with all cases listed
✅ 123 Total Test Cases covering:
- Happy paths (valid inputs)
- Edge cases (boundary values)
- Error scenarios (invalid inputs, network errors)
- Null/undefined handling
- Case-insensitive validation
✅ Mocking Strategy:
- API calls mocked with
vi.mock() - React Context mocked for hooks
- No external dependencies required
✅ Best Practices:
- AAA pattern (Arrange → Act → Assert)
- Descriptive test names
- Comprehensive error handling
- Independent, isolated tests

Run tests to ensure they pass:
cd server && npm test cd ../client && npm test
-
Check coverage reports:
npm test -- --coverage -
Integrate into CI/CD pipeline for automated testing
-
Extend tests as new features are added
All tests are ready to run immediately after dependency installation!
