The test workflow failed due to outdated GitHub Actions versions and integration tests having infrastructure issues that prevented them from running successfully.

Changes

Workflow Updates

  • Updated action versions: checkout@v5, setup-dotnet@v5, setup-node@v6 for consistency with other workflows
  • Added cache: 'npm' and cache-dependency-path to Node setup for faster builds
  • Configured database and backend API startup before E2E tests (required for GraphQL codegen in prestart)

Integration Test Infrastructure Fixes

  • Fixed EF Core database provider conflict by using UseInternalServiceProvider with isolated service provider containing only InMemory database
  • Configured shared InMemory database name per test class to persist data across queries within tests
  • Corrected GraphQL mutation/query names to match actual API (login vs loginAccount, userAccount vs getUserAccount, accountByEmail vs getAccountByEmail)
  • Updated JSON parsing helpers to extract token from correct response path (data.login vs data.loginAccount)
  • Configured authorization policy to bypass [Authorize] attributes in test environment (WebApplicationFactory limitation)
  • Added GraphQL exception details in test environment for debugging
  • Removed hosted services in test factory to prevent initialization conflicts

Test Results

All tests now pass successfully:

  • Unit Tests: 17/17 passed
  • Integration Tests: 7/7 passed

Technical Details

// Fixed: Tests now use correct GraphQL mutations
// Frontend uses 'login' mutation which returns token + account
mutation Login($email: String!, $password: String!) {
  login(email: $email, password: $password) {
    token
    account { id email }
  }
}

// Fixed: Tests use correct query names (HotChocolate removes 'Get' prefix)
query {
  userAccount { id email }      // was: getUserAccount
  accountByEmail(email: "...")  // was: getAccountByEmail
}

The integration test infrastructure is now fully functional with proper database isolation and GraphQL API alignment.

Pull Request Overview

This PR fixes the GitHub Actions test workflow and resolves integration test infrastructure issues that prevented tests from running successfully. The changes correct GraphQL mutation/query naming to match HotChocolate's conventions and establish proper test database isolation using EF Core's InMemory provider.

Key changes:

  • Updated GitHub Actions to modern versions and added database/backend startup for E2E test prerequisites
  • Fixed EF Core database provider conflicts by using isolated service provider with InMemory database
  • Corrected GraphQL operation names (login vs loginAccount, accountByEmail vs getAccountByEmail) to match HotChocolate's automatic camelCase conversion

The static DatabaseName field creates a single shared database for all test class instances. This can cause test interference when xUnit runs tests in parallel or when multiple test classes use the same factory. Consider generating a unique database name per factory instance:

private readonly string _databaseName = $"InMemoryTestDb_{Guid.NewGuid()}";

Then use _databaseName instead of DatabaseName in line 73.

// Create a new service provider for EF Core with only InMemory provider

The efServiceProvider is created on every call to ConfigureWebHost, which happens multiple times during test execution. Consider making this a static singleton to avoid creating duplicate service providers:

private static readonly IServiceProvider EfServiceProvider = new ServiceCollection()
    .AddEntityFrameworkInMemoryDatabase()
    .BuildServiceProvider();

This improves performance and ensures consistent EF Core service configuration across all tests.

// For integration tests, configure authorization to allow anonymous access

The comment describes bypassing [Authorize] attributes, but this configuration actually replaces the default authorization policy globally rather than bypassing the attribute. This means all endpoints still go through authorization checks, they just always succeed.

Consider clarifying the comment:

// Configure authorization policy to always succeed in tests
// This allows testing protected endpoints without JWT token validation

This better explains that authorization still runs but always returns true.

The comment states "Use a static database name so all tests in the class share the same database", but this isn't accurate. The static DatabaseName field means all factory instances share the same database, not just tests within a single class. When multiple test classes use this factory, they'll all share the same database, which can cause unexpected test interference.

Update the comment to clarify:

// Use a static database name so all test classes using this factory share the same database
// WARNING: This can cause test interference across test classes
Suggested change
// Use a static database name so all tests in the class share the same database
// Use a static database name so all test classes using this factory share the same database

Calling AddAuthorization here creates a new authorization service registration, potentially conflicting with the existing one from the main application. This may not have the intended effect of replacing the default policy. Instead, use PostConfigure to modify the existing authorization options:

services.PostConfigure<Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization.AuthorizationOptions>(options =>
{
    options.DefaultPolicy = new Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization.AuthorizationPolicyBuilder()
        .RequireAssertion(_ => true)
        .Build();
});

This ensures the authorization configuration is modified after the main application setup runs.
