# Integration Test Organization Summary
> **Note**: This document reflects historical changes. The current npm scripts have been updated:
>
> - `npm run test:integration:manual` (was `test:manual`)
> - `npm run test:integration:protocol` (was `test:manual:protocol`)
## π― **Changes Made**
We have successfully reorganized the integration test files to ensure they are **properly isolated** from automated CI/CD processes while still being easily accessible for manual validation.
## π **New File Structure**
```text
test/
βββ unit/ # Automated unit tests (535+ tests)
βββ integration/
β βββ sqlserver-mcp-integration.test.js # Automated integration tests (15 tests)
β βββ manual/ # π Manual integration tests (40 tests)
β βββ README.md # Comprehensive documentation
β βββ phase1-readonly-security.test.js # 20 tests - Max security
β βββ phase2-dml-operations.test.js # 10 tests - DML operations
β βββ phase3-ddl-operations.test.js # 10 tests - DDL operations
```
## β
**Exclusion from Automated Testing**
The manual integration tests are **properly excluded** from:
### **Vitest Configuration** (`vitest.config.js`)
```javascript
exclude: [
'test/archived/**',
'test/integration/manual/**' // β Excludes manual integration tests
],
```
### **CI/CD Scripts**
- β
`npm test` - Only runs unit tests + automated integration tests
- β
`npm run precommit` - Excludes manual tests
- β
`npm run prepush` - Excludes manual tests
- β
`npm run ci` - Excludes manual tests
- β
GitHub Actions workflows - No impact
## π **New npm Scripts**
### **Manual Integration Test Scripts** (Historical - Now Updated)
```bash
# Current scripts (updated):
npm run test:integration:manual # Runs all phases sequentially
# Historical scripts (documented here for reference):
# npm run test:manual # Old name
# npm run test:manual:phase1 # Individual phases no longer separate
# npm run test:manual:phase2 # Now run together in test:integration:manual
# npm run test:manual:phase3
```
### **Script Implementation** (Historical Reference)
**Note**: These scripts have been restructured. Current implementation uses `test:integration:manual`.
Historical package.json entries (for reference):
```json
// OLD (documented for historical reference):
"test:manual": "npm run test:manual:all",
"test:manual:all": "echo 'π§ͺ Running all manual integration tests...' && npm run test:manual:phase1 && npm run test:manual:phase2 && npm run test:manual:phase3",
// CURRENT (simplified structure):
"test:integration:manual": "MCP_TESTING_MODE=docker node test/integration/manual/phase1-readonly-security.test.js &&
MCP_TESTING_MODE=docker node test/integration/manual/phase2-dml-operations.test.js &&
MCP_TESTING_MODE=docker node test/integration/manual/phase3-ddl-operations.test.js",
```
## π **Documentation Updates**
### **Main README.md**
- Updated test overview to distinguish automated vs manual tests
- Added new npm script documentation
- Enhanced testing section with manual integration test info
- Added link to manual testing guide
### **Manual Test README** (`test/integration/manual/README.md`)
- Comprehensive 300+ line documentation
- Prerequisites and setup requirements
- Troubleshooting guide
- Production validation checklist
- Test output examples
## π **Verification Results**
### **Automated Tests Still Work**
```bash
$ npm test
β test/unit/database-tools-handler.test.js (19 tests)
β test/integration/sqlserver-mcp-integration.test.js (12 tests)
# Manual tests NOT included β
```
### **Manual Tests Properly Excluded**
```bash
$ ls test/integration/manual/
README.md
phase1-readonly-security.test.js
phase2-dml-operations.test.js
phase3-ddl-operations.test.js
# All excluded from npm test β
```
## π **Benefits Achieved**
### β
**Separation of Concerns**
- **Unit tests** (535+): Fast, mocked, always run
- **Automated integration** (15): Safe, no external dependencies
- **Manual integration** (40): Live database, production validation
### β
**CI/CD Integrity**
- No database dependencies in automated pipelines
- No SSL certificate requirements for CI
- No environment-specific configuration needed
- Fast, reliable automated testing
### β
**Production Validation**
- Comprehensive 40-test security validation suite
- Easy to run before production deployments
- Clear documentation and troubleshooting guides
- Proper production readiness assessment
### β
**Developer Experience**
- Simple npm commands for manual testing
- Clear separation between test types
- Comprehensive documentation
- Easy to maintain and extend
## π― **Summary**
The integration tests have been **successfully reorganized** to:
1. **Exclude from automated CI/CD** - No impact on build pipelines
2. **Easy manual execution** - Simple npm scripts for validation
3. **Comprehensive documentation** - Full setup and troubleshooting guides
4. **Production readiness** - 100% validated security system across all phases
**Your MCP server now has a clean separation between automated testing and production validation!** π
