## Example Test Patterns
### Testing Success Scenarios
```python
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_handle_query_knowledge_success(self, mock_knowledge_service):
"""Test successful knowledge query with hybrid mode"""
mock_knowledge_service.query.return_value = {
"success": True,
"answer": "Test response"
}
result = await handle_query_knowledge(
args={"question": "test question", "mode": "hybrid"},
knowledge_service=mock_knowledge_service
)
assert result["success"] is True
assert result["answer"] == "Test response"
```
### Testing Error Handling
```python
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_handle_code_graph_ingest_repo_error(self, mock_code_ingestor, mock_git_utils):
"""Test repo ingestion error handling"""
mock_git_utils.is_git_repo.side_effect = Exception("Git error")
result = await handle_code_graph_ingest_repo(
args={"local_path": "/bad/path"},
get_code_ingestor=mock_code_ingestor,
git_utils=mock_git_utils
)
assert result["success"] is False
assert "error" in result
```
### Testing Async Operations
```python
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_handle_add_document_large_async(self, mock_knowledge_service, mock_submit_document_task):
"""Test adding large document (>=10KB) - asynchronous processing"""
mock_submit_document_task.return_value = "task-123"
large_content = "x" * 15000 # 15KB
result = await handle_add_document(
args={"content": large_content, "title": "Large Doc"},
knowledge_service=mock_knowledge_service,
submit_document_processing_task=mock_submit_document_task
)
assert result["success"] is True
assert result["async"] is True
assert result["task_id"] == "task-123"
```
## Test Validation
All test files have been validated:
- ✅ Syntax checking: All files pass Python compilation
- ✅ Import checking: All imports resolved correctly
- ✅ Fixture usage: All fixtures properly defined and used
- ✅ Async patterns: Proper use of `@pytest.mark.asyncio`
- ✅ Mock patterns: Correct use of AsyncMock for async functions
## Future Enhancements
### Potential Additions
1. **Performance tests**: Add tests for handler performance/timeouts
2. **Integration tests**: Add tests requiring actual Neo4j (marked with `@pytest.mark.integration`)
3. **Parametrized tests**: Use `@pytest.mark.parametrize` for similar test scenarios
4. **Property-based tests**: Add hypothesis tests for edge cases
5. **Mutation tests**: Add mutation testing to verify test quality
### Test Coverage Goals
- Current: ~80% estimated code coverage
- Target: >90% code coverage with edge cases
- Branch coverage: >85%
