✅ Test Coverage

Unit Tests

DatabaseTest.php - Tests basic database operations:

• ✅ Database connection
• ✅ Count published theses
• ✅ Get published theses
• ✅ Get single thesis by ID

RateLimitTest.php - Tests rate limiting:

• ✅ RateLimit initialization
• ✅ check() method
• ✅ sendHeaders() method
• ✅ getResetTime() method
• ✅ cleanup() method

Integration Tests

SearchTest.php - Tests search functionality:

• ✅ Empty search query handling
• ✅ Search for specific terms
• ✅ Special characters in search

Security Tests

SecurityTest.php - Tests security measures:

• ✅ SQL injection protection
• ✅ Invalid ID rejection
• ✅ XSS protection (output escaping)

📝 Writing New Tests

Test File Template

<?php
/**
 * Test Name
 * Description of what this tests
 */

require_once __DIR__ . '/../../lib/YourClass.php';

echo "Test Name\n";
echo "=========\n\n";

try {
    // Test 1
    echo "Test 1: Description\n";
    // ... test code ...
    echo "✓ PASS: Test passed\n\n";

    // Test 2
    echo "Test 2: Description\n";
    // ... test code ...
    echo "✓ PASS: Test passed\n\n";

    echo "✅ All tests passed!\n";
    return true;

} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo "❌ FAIL: " . $e->getMessage() . "\n";
    return false;
}

Guidelines

1. Return Value: Return true for pass, false for fail
2. Output Format: Use ✓ PASS: for successes, ❌ FAIL: for failures
3. Exceptions: Catch and report exceptions clearly
4. Dependencies: Require only what's needed via relative paths
5. Location:
   • Unit/ - Tests for individual classes/functions
   • Integration/ - Tests for feature workflows
   • Security/ - Tests for security vulnerabilities

🔧 Test Database

Tests use the test database at database/test.db.

Setup Test Database

# Create from schema
just init-db

# Create with fixtures (sample data)
just fixtures

Reset Test Database

just reset-db

🐛 Debugging Failed Tests

Check Logs

# Application errors
tail -f error.log

# Test output
php tests/run-tests.php > test-output.txt 2>&1

Run Tests Individually

When a test fails, run it directly to see full output:

php tests/Unit/DatabaseTest.php

Check Database

# Open database
just query

# Check stats
just stats

🔄 Continuous Testing

Watch Mode (Future)

Could add file watching for auto-run:

# Future: auto-run tests on file change
just watch-tests

Pre-commit Hook (Future)

Add to .git/hooks/pre-commit:

#!/bin/bash
php tests/run-tests.php
