Testing Overview

The cyber-trackr-live project uses a comprehensive testing strategy to ensure reliability and accuracy.

Testing Architecture

We employ a two-tier testing architecture that separates concerns:

• Two-Tier Testing - Architectural overview of our testing approach
• API Testing Guide - Practical guide for testing the API

Quick Commands

# Validate OpenAPI specification
npm run docs:validate

# Run Ruby tests
bundle exec rake test

# Run all tests
bundle exec rake test:all

# Run live API tests
bundle exec rake test:live

Testing Philosophy

1. Separation of Concerns - OpenAPI validation separate from API behavior testing
2. Fast Feedback - Quick validation catches errors early
3. Comprehensive Coverage - Both specification and implementation tested
4. Cross-Platform - Tests run on Windows, macOS, and Linux

Next Steps

• Understanding the architecture? → Two-Tier Testing
• Running tests? → API Testing Guide
• Troubleshooting? → Release Troubleshooting
