Build Status Analysis (August 2025)¶
Coverage Analysis Blocked Due To:

- Database Layer: Constructor and query method signature mismatches in test files
- Test Infrastructure: Missing utility functions (getTempDir(), logging includes)
- Type System: Multiple struct member access errors across modules
- Parallel Execution: std::execution::par_unseq not available in current C++ implementation

๐งช Test Suite Architecture¶
Test Categories¶
1. Unit Tests (tests/unit/)¶
Purpose: Test individual components in isolation - Coverage: Function-level testing with mocks for dependencies - Execution Time: < 30 seconds for full unit test suite - Parallelization: Tests run concurrently for speed
// Example unit test structure
TEST(ContentStoreTest, StoreValidContent) {
// Arrange: Set up test data and mocks
MockStorageEngine mockEngine;
ContentStore store(std::make_unique<MockStorageEngine>(mockEngine));
// Act: Execute the function under test
auto result = store.storeContent(testData, metadata);
// Assert: Verify expected behavior
ASSERT_TRUE(result.has_value());
EXPECT_EQ(result.value().hash, expectedHash);
}
2. Integration Tests (tests/integration/)¶
Purpose: Test component interactions and workflows - Coverage: End-to-end workflows with real dependencies - Execution Time: < 2 minutes for full integration suite - Data: Uses temporary directories and test fixtures
// Example integration test
TEST(FullSystemIntegrationTest, StoreSearchRetrieveWorkflow) {
// Test complete workflow from storage through search to retrieval
ContentStore store("/tmp/integration_test");
SearchEngine search("/tmp/integration_search");
// Store document
auto storeResult = store.storeDocument("test.txt", {});
ASSERT_TRUE(storeResult.has_value());
// Index for search
auto indexResult = search.indexDocument(storeResult.value());
ASSERT_TRUE(indexResult.has_value());
// Search and verify
auto searchResult = search.search("test content");
ASSERT_TRUE(searchResult.has_value());
EXPECT_GT(searchResult.value().totalResults, 0);
}
3. Stress Tests (tests/stress/)¶
Purpose: Test system behavior under load and edge conditions - Coverage: High-volume operations, concurrent access, memory limits - Execution Time: 5-30 minutes depending on test scope - Metrics: Performance, memory usage, error rates
4. Benchmark Tests (benchmarks/)¶
Purpose: Measure and track performance characteristics - Coverage: Throughput, latency, memory efficiency - Baselines: Established performance baselines with regression detection - Reporting: Historical performance tracking
