Unit testing - business logic and database layer
Objective This issue focuses on implementing comprehensive unit testing for the backend business logic and database/repository layers of the eHRS system. The goal is to ensure that core services and repository functions are validated against real-world scenarios, business rules, and edge cases.
Scope of Work
- Write structured unit tests for:
- Doctor Service
- Medical Camp Service
- Medicine Service
- Consultation Queue Service
- Patient Consultation Service
- User Service
- Auth & API Route layers
- Validate service-layer business logic workflows and edge cases
- Test repository/database CRUD operations
- Ensure proper constraint and integrity handling
Test Strategy
✔ ️ Valid Success Scenarios Correct workflow execution Expected business rule behavior Valid database interactions
Structural Improvements
- Refactor existing tests to validate actual business logic instead of force-passing cases
- Implement centralized database session handling using conftest.py
- Apply clean Pytest structure and fixture reuse
- Ensure proper Pydantic schema validation testing
- Remove isolated “failure-only” and “warning-only” test files to maintain maintainable structure
Expected Outcome
- Balanced test coverage across success, failure, and warning cases
- Deterministic and isolated tests
- Accurate validation of business rules
- Improved reliability of the backend system
- A test suite that exposes logical gaps instead of masking them
