Overview

Expand integration testing beyond happy path to cover edge cases, network failures, malformed responses, and boundary conditions.

Current State

  • ✅ 304 total tests
  • ✅ Happy path covered
  • ❌ Edge cases undertested
  • ❌ Failure mode coverage incomplete

Testing Score Impact

Current: Testing A- (90/100)
With this + #62: Testing A+ (98/100)

Missing Test Scenarios

1. Network Failure Modes

@Test
void testConnectionTimeout() {
    // Mock server that never responds
    // Verify timeout triggers after configured duration
}

    // Mock server that closes connection mid-stream
    // Verify retry logic kicks in
}

@Test
void testSlowServer() {
    // Mock server with 10s+ response time

void testDNSResolutionFailure() {
    // Invalid hostname

}

}

4. Pagination Edge Cases

@Test
void testPaginationWith1000Pages() {
    // Extremely large repository
    // Verify no memory leak
    // Verify eventual completion
}

@Test
void testPaginationServerReturnsEmptyPage() {
    // Server returns page with 0 items but has continuation token
    // Verify infinite loop prevention
}

@Test
void testPaginationServerReturnsDuplicateToken() {
    // Server keeps returning same continuation token
    // Verify infinite loop detection
}

@Test
void testPaginationTokenBecomesInvalid() {
    // Token expires mid-pagination
    // Verify error handling
}

5. Cache Edge Cases

@Test
void testConcurrentCacheAccess() {
    // 10 threads accessing same cache simultaneously
    // Verify thread safety
}

@Test
void testCacheWith10000Repositories() {
    // Stress test cache size
    // Verify memory usage reasonable
}

@Test
void testCacheInvalidationDuringRead() {
    // One thread reads while another invalidates
    // Verify no race condition
}

@Test
void testCacheExpiryBoundaryCondition() {
    // Read exactly at TTL expiry moment
    // Verify correct behavior
}

6. Delete Operation Edge Cases

@Test
void testDeleteNonExistentComponent() {
    // Component ID doesn't exist
    // Verify error message clarity
}

@Test
void testDeleteAlreadyDeletedComponent() {
    // Delete same component twice
    // Verify idempotency
}

@Test
void testDeleteDuringPagination() {
    // Delete component while another thread pages same repo
    // Verify consistency
}

@Test
void testDelete1000Components() {
    // Bulk delete stress test
    // Verify memory usage, no leaks
}

7. Credentials Edge Cases

    // 1000+ character password
    // Verify no truncation

    // Empty/blank username
    // Verify validation error
}

@Test
void testPathWithSpaces() {
    // "my file with spaces.jar"
    // Verify URL encoding
}

@Test
void testPathWithUnicode() {
    // "文件.jar", "файл.jar", "🚀.jar"
    // Verify encoding/decoding
}

@Test
void testVeryLongPath() {
    // 1000+ character path
    // Verify no truncation
}

@Test  
void testPathTraversalAttempt() {
    // "../../etc/passwd"
    // Verify security validation
}

9. Statistics Edge Cases

@Test
void testStatsOnEmptyRepository() {
    // Zero components
    // Verify no divide-by-zero
}

@Test
void testStatsOnSingleComponent() {
    // Edge case for median calculation
}

@Test
void testStatsWithExtremeFileSizes() {
    // Mix of 1 byte and 10GB files
    // Verify bucketing works
}

@Test
void testStatsWithFutureDates() {
    // Component createdDate in future
    // Verify age calculation doesn't break
}

10. Regex Validation Edge Cases

@Test
void testComplexRegexPattern() {
    // Extremely complex pattern
    // Verify ReDoS prevention
}

@Test
void testInvalidRegexPattern() {
    // Syntactically invalid regex
    // Verify clear error message
}

@Test
void testRegexWithUnicode() {
    // Pattern matching CJK characters
    // Verify works correctly
}

Platform-Specific Tests

Android (OkHttp)

@Test
void testOkHttpInterceptorFailure() {
    // Interceptor throws exception
    // Verify error handling
}

@Test
void testOkHttpConnectionPoolExhaustion() {
    // Exhaust connection pool
    // Verify queuing works
}

iOS (URLSession)

func testURLSessionInvalidateDuringRequest() {
    // Invalidate session mid-request
    // Verify graceful cancellation
}

func testURLSessionBackgroundTransfer() {
    // Large download in background
    // Verify completion handling
}

Desktop (HttpClient)
