{project} Testing Patterns

Custom testing patterns, fixtures, and strategies for this project.

Variables

Instructions

1. Identify test type needed (unit/integration/e2e)
2. Use appropriate fixtures and patterns
3. Follow project naming conventions
4. Ensure proper cleanup

Red Flags - STOP and Reconsider

If you're about to:

• Write a test without proper isolation
• Skip cleanup in fixtures
• Hardcode test data instead of using fixtures
• Write flaky tests (timing-dependent, order-dependent)

STOP -> Use proper fixtures -> Ensure isolation -> Then write test

Test Categories

Unit Tests

Location: tests/unit/

Patterns:

• Test single functions/methods in isolation
• Mock external dependencies
• Fast execution (< 100ms each)

Integration Tests

Location: tests/integration/

Patterns:

• Test component interactions
• Use test database/fixtures
• May have external dependencies

E2E Tests

Location: tests/e2e/ or playwright/

Patterns:

• Test full user workflows
• Use browser automation
• Longer execution time acceptable

Fixtures

Database Fixtures

Location: tests/fixtures/

Usage:

Copy# Python example
from tests.fixtures import sample_user, sample_order

def test_order_creation(sample_user, sample_order):
    # Test uses pre-configured fixtures
    pass

Mock Services

Location: tests/mocks/

Available mocks:

• [TODO: List project-specific mocks]

Naming Conventions

Coverage Requirements

CI Integration

Tests run in CI:

• On PR: unit + integration
• On merge: all including E2E
• Nightly: full regression suite

Customization

Edit this file to add:

• New fixture definitions
• Additional mock services
• Custom test patterns
• Coverage exceptions
