# Story 0010: Unit tests for ConnectionManager
## Description
Create comprehensive unit tests for the ConnectionManager class, covering connection lifecycle, state management, error handling, and statistics tracking. Target 80%+ code coverage.
## Acceptance Criteria
- [x] `tests/test_connection.py` created
- [x] Test successful connection to server
- [x] Test connection timeout handling
- [x] Test disconnect clears state properly
- [x] Test require_connection when not connected raises error
- [x] Test require_connection when connected returns client
- [x] Test statistics tracking (increments correctly)
- [x] Test multiple connect/disconnect cycles
- [x] Test connection state persistence across operations
- [x] Test environment variable configuration (timeouts)
- [x] Code coverage ≥ 80% for connection.py (98% achieved)
## Technical Notes
**Test categories:**
1. Happy path - successful connection and operations
2. Error paths - timeouts, failures, invalid states
3. State management - verify state transitions
4. Statistics - verify counters update correctly
5. Configuration - environment variables work
**Key tests:**
```python
async def test_connect_success(mock_mcp_server):
"""Test successful connection to server"""
async def test_connect_timeout():
"""Test connection timeout handling"""
async def test_disconnect_clears_state():
"""Test disconnect clears connection state"""
async def test_require_connection_when_not_connected():
"""Test error when no connection exists"""
```
## AI Directives
**IMPORTANT**: As you work through this story, please mark checklist items as complete `[x]` as you finish them. This ensures that if we need to pause and resume work, we have a clear record of progress. Update the `status` field in the frontmatter when moving between stages (in-progress, ready-for-review, done, blocked).
Achieve 80%+ coverage. Test both happy paths and failure scenarios.
