# Megatest Concept - Comprehensive Advanced Memory Integration Test
## End-to-End System Validation from Cold Start to Complex Operations
## π― Overview
The **Megatest** is a comprehensive integration test suite that exercises Advanced Memory MCP through realistic usage patterns, edge cases, and error conditions. It validates the entire system from cold start through complex multi-project operations.
## π¨ CRITICAL: Production Data Safety
**THE MEGATEST MUST NEVER TOUCH PRODUCTION DATA!**
### Isolation Guarantees
1. β
**Separate test directory** - Completely isolated from production MD folders
2. β
**Separate test database** - In-memory or temporary file, NEVER production DB
3. β
**Explicit safeguards** - Multiple checks prevent accidental production access
4. β
**Test-only configuration** - Separate config file for test environment
5. β
**Cleanup on exit** - All test data deleted after completion (unless preserved for debugging)
### Safety Mechanisms
```python
# ENFORCED: Test cannot run if production paths detected
if is_production_path(config.db_path):
raise RuntimeError("FATAL: Attempted to use production database!")
if is_production_path(config.home_dir):
raise RuntimeError("FATAL: Attempted to use production MD folder!")
# ENFORCED: Test directory must be in temp or test-specific location
ALLOWED_TEST_PATHS = [
Path("test_data/megatest/"), # Relative test path
Path(tempfile.gettempdir()), # System temp directory
Path.cwd() / "tests/megatest/data" # Test-specific directory
]
```
### Pre-Flight Checks
Before ANY test operations:
1. β
Verify test directory is NOT in production path
2. β
Verify database is NOT production database
3. β
Create isolated test environment
4. β
Display test paths for verification
5. β
Require explicit confirmation if running outside pytest

megatest: Comprehensive integration test (90+ minutes, ISOLATED)
megatest_quick: Quick validation (10 minutes, ISOLATED)
megatest_phase: Individual phase tests (ISOLATED)
