# Testing Guide

Comprehensive testing guide for mcp-vector-search covering unit tests, integration tests, end-to-end tests, and performance testing.

## 🎯 Testing Philosophy

MCP Vector Search follows a comprehensive testing strategy to ensure reliability, performance, and maintainability. Our testing approach prioritizes the most critical functions with appropriate test coverage and quality metrics.

### Testing Priorities

**Tier 1: Core Critical Functions** (90%+ coverage required)
1. **Search Operations** - `SemanticSearchEngine.search()`
2. **Indexing Operations** - `SemanticIndexer.index_project()`, `index_file()`
3. **Database Operations** - `ChromaVectorDatabase.search()`, `add_chunks()`, `delete_by_file()`
4. **Connection Pooling** - `ChromaConnectionPool` lifecycle and performance
5. **Auto-Indexing** - `AutoIndexer.check_and_reindex_if_needed()`

**Tier 2: Important Supporting Functions** (80%+ coverage required)
6. **Project Management** - `ProjectManager.initialize()`, `load_config()`
7. **Embedding Generation** - `create_embedding_function()`
8. **File Parsing** - Parser registry and language-specific parsers
9. **Component Factory** - `ComponentFactory.create_standard_components()`
10. **CLI Commands** - Main CLI entry points

**Tier 3: Integration & E2E** (70%+ coverage required)
11. **Full Workflow** - Init → Index → Search → Reindex
12. **Auto-Indexing Strategies** - Git hooks, scheduled tasks, search-triggered
13. **Performance Benchmarks** - Connection pooling, search speed, indexing speed
14. **Error Handling** - Graceful degradation and recovery
15. **Configuration Management** - Config loading, validation, migration

## 🧪 Test Categories

### Unit Tests

**Purpose**: Test individual components in isolation
**Speed**: Fast (< 1 second each)
**Scope**: Single function/class

```python
# tests/unit/core/test_parsers.py
import pytest
from mcp_vector_search.parsers.python import PythonParser
from mcp_vector_search.core.models import ChunkType

class TestPythonParser:
    """Unit tests for Python parser."""

    def test_parse_simple_function(self):
        """Test parsing a simple function."""
        parser = PythonParser()
        code = '''
def hello_world():
    """Say hello to the world."""
    print("Hello, world!")
'''

        chunks = parser.parse(code)

        assert len(chunks) == 1
        assert chunks[0].chunk_type == ChunkType.FUNCTION
        assert "hello_world" in chunks[0].content
        assert chunks[0].start_line == 2
        assert chunks[0].end_line == 4

    def test_parse_class_with_methods(self):
        """Test parsing a class with methods."""
        parser = PythonParser()
        code = '''
class Calculator:
    """A simple calculator."""

    def add(self, a, b):
        return a + b

    def subtract(self, a, b):
        return a - b
'''

        chunks = parser.parse(code)

        # Should have class chunk and method chunks
        assert len(chunks) >= 3
        class_chunks = [c for c in chunks if c.chunk_type == ChunkType.CLASS]
        method_chunks = [c for c in chunks if c.chunk_type == ChunkType.FUNCTION]

        assert len(class_chunks) == 1
        assert len(method_chunks) == 2

    def test_parse_invalid_syntax(self):
        """Test handling of invalid Python syntax."""
        parser = PythonParser()
        code = "def invalid_function(\n    # Missing closing parenthesis"

        # Should fall back to regex parsing
        chunks = parser.parse(code)
        assert len(chunks) >= 0  # Should not crash
```

### Integration Tests

**Purpose**: Test component interactions
**Speed**: Medium (1-10 seconds each)
**Scope**: Multiple components working together

```python
# tests/integration/test_indexing_workflow.py
import pytest
import tempfile
from pathlib import Path
from mcp_vector_search.core.indexer import SemanticIndexer
from mcp_vector_search.core.search import SemanticSearch

@pytest.mark.asyncio
class TestIndexingWorkflow:
    """Integration tests for indexing workflow."""

    async def test_full_indexing_and_search(self, tmp_path, test_database, test_embeddings):
        """Test complete indexing and search workflow."""
        # Create test files
        python_file = tmp_path / "test.py"
        python_file.write_text('''
def authenticate_user(username, password):
    """Authenticate user with username and password."""
    if not username or not password:
        return False
    return check_credentials(username, password)

def check_credentials(username, password):
    """Check user credentials against database."""
    # Implementation here
    return True
''')

        js_file = tmp_path / "auth.js"
        js_file.write_text('''
function loginUser(email, password) {
    /**
     * Log in user with email and password
     */
    if (!email || !password) {
        return false;
    }
    return validateCredentials(email, password);
}
''')

        # Index files
        indexer = SemanticIndexer(test_database, test_embeddings, parser_registry)
        result = await indexer.index_files([python_file, js_file])

        assert result.chunks_created > 0
        assert result.files_processed == 2
        assert len(result.errors) == 0

        # Search for authentication-related code
        search = SemanticSearch(test_database, test_embeddings)
        results = await search.search("user authentication", limit=5)

        assert len(results) > 0
        assert any("authenticate" in r.chunk.content.lower() for r in results)
        assert any("login" in r.chunk.content.lower() for r in results)
```

### End-to-End Tests

        # Change to test directory
        original_cwd = Path.cwd()
        try:
            os.chdir(tmp_path)

            # Create sample code
            (tmp_path / "main.py").write_text('''
def main():
    """Main application entry point."""
    print("Hello, world!")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
''')

            # Initialize project
            result = subprocess.run(
                ["mcp-vector-search", "init"],
                capture_output=True,
                text=True
            )
            assert result.returncode == 0
            assert Path(".mcp-vector-search").exists()

            # Index codebase
            result = subprocess.run(
                ["mcp-vector-search", "index"],
                capture_output=True,
                text=True
            )
            assert result.returncode == 0
            assert "indexed" in result.stdout.lower()

            # Search code
            result = subprocess.run(
                ["mcp-vector-search", "search", "main function"],
                capture_output=True,
                text=True
            )
            assert result.returncode == 0
            assert "main.py" in result.stdout

        finally:
            os.chdir(original_cwd)
```

[tool.pytest.ini_options]
markers = [
    "slow: marks tests as slow (deselect with '-m \"not slow\"')",
    "integration: marks tests as integration tests",
    "unit: marks tests as unit tests",
    "performance: marks tests as performance tests",
    "requires_network: marks tests that require network access",
]
```

### Using Markers

```python
import pytest

@pytest.mark.slow
@pytest.mark.integration
async def test_large_codebase_indexing():
    """Test indexing a large codebase (slow test)."""
    # Test implementation

@pytest.mark.unit
def test_chunk_creation():
    """Test code chunk creation (fast unit test)."""
    # Test implementation

@pytest.mark.performance
def test_search_latency():
    """Test search response time."""
    # Performance test implementation
```

---

## 📈 Performance Testing

### Benchmarking

```python
# tests/performance/test_indexing_speed.py
import time
import pytest
from mcp_vector_search.core.indexer import SemanticIndexer

@pytest.mark.performance
class TestIndexingPerformance:
    """Performance tests for indexing operations."""

    def test_indexing_speed(self, large_codebase_fixture):
        """Test indexing speed on large codebase."""
        indexer = SemanticIndexer(test_database, test_embeddings, parser_registry)

        start_time = time.time()
        result = await indexer.index_files(large_codebase_fixture)
        end_time = time.time()

        indexing_time = end_time - start_time
        files_per_second = len(large_codebase_fixture) / indexing_time

        # Assert performance requirements
        assert files_per_second > 10  # At least 10 files per second
        assert result.chunks_created > 0

        print(f"Indexed {len(large_codebase_fixture)} files in {indexing_time:.2f}s")
        print(f"Speed: {files_per_second:.1f} files/second")
```

### Memory Testing

```python
import psutil
import os

def test_memory_usage():
    """Test memory usage during indexing."""
    process = psutil.Process(os.getpid())
    initial_memory = process.memory_info().rss

    # Perform memory-intensive operation
    indexer = SemanticIndexer(test_database, test_embeddings, parser_registry)
    await indexer.index_files(large_file_list)

    final_memory = process.memory_info().rss
    memory_increase = final_memory - initial_memory

    # Assert memory usage is reasonable
    assert memory_increase < 500 * 1024 * 1024  # Less than 500MB increase
```

- [ ] Tests follow AAA pattern (Arrange, Act, Assert)
- [ ] Edge cases are covered
- [ ] Error conditions are tested

---

## 🎯 Testing Best Practices

### 1. Test Naming

```python
# Good: Descriptive test names
def test_python_parser_extracts_function_with_docstring():
def test_search_returns_empty_list_for_no_matches():
def test_indexer_handles_file_not_found_error():

# Bad: Unclear test names
def test_parser():
def test_search():
def test_error():
```

### 2. Test Structure (AAA Pattern)

```python
def test_search_filters_by_similarity_threshold():
    # Arrange
    search = SemanticSearch(mock_database, mock_embeddings)
    mock_database.search_similar.return_value = [
        SearchResult(chunk=mock_chunk, similarity_score=0.9, rank=0),
        SearchResult(chunk=mock_chunk, similarity_score=0.5, rank=1),
    ]

    # Act
    results = await search.search("test query", threshold=0.7)

    # Assert
    assert len(results) == 1
    assert results[0].similarity_score >= 0.7
```

### 3. Test Independence

```python
# Good: Each test is independent
def test_parser_handles_empty_string():
    parser = PythonParser()  # Fresh instance
    result = parser.parse("")
    assert result == []

def test_parser_handles_single_function():
    parser = PythonParser()  # Fresh instance
    result = parser.parse("def test(): pass")
    assert len(result) == 1
```
