# Test Audit Report

## 1. Executive Summary

This audit evaluates the current state of testing in the project. The overall test coverage is critically low, with a complete absence of unit tests. While the existing feature tests are of decent quality, they lack coverage for edge cases. This report provides a detailed analysis and a list of recommendations to improve test quality and coverage.

**Setup Issues:**
- A dependency conflict with `vimeo/psalm` prevented the initial installation. This was resolved by temporarily removing the dependency. This should be addressed by either upgrading the PHP version or finding a compatible version of the package.
- The environment was missing a code coverage driver. This was resolved by installing and configuring Xdebug.

## 2. Coverage Analysis

The test coverage is critically low and requires immediate attention. The lack of unit tests is a major contributor to these low numbers.

- **Line Coverage:** 2.45%
- **Method Coverage:** 4.51%
- **Class Coverage:** 3.30%
- **Branch Coverage:** No data available from the `clover.xml` report.

### Critical Paths

The following critical paths have little to no test coverage:

- **Authentication & Authorization (`Core\\Bouncer`):** This is a major security risk.
- **Core Application Logic:** Most of the core application logic is untested.
- **Website Components:** The entire `Core\\Website` namespace is untested.

### Untested Code

The vast majority of the codebase is untested. A full list of untested files can be derived from the `clover.xml` report.

## 3. Test Quality

### Test Independence

- The existing feature tests use `RefreshDatabase`, which is a good practice for test isolation.
- There is no evidence of order-dependent tests or shared mutable state.

### Test Clarity

- Test names are generally descriptive and follow a consistent pattern.
- The Arrange-Act-Assert pattern is used correctly in the feature tests.
- Most tests follow the single assertion principle, but some could be improved.

### Test Reliability

- No flaky tests were identified.
- No time-dependent tests were found.
- External dependencies are not consistently mocked, which could lead to unreliable tests.

## 4. Missing Tests

The most significant gap is the complete absence of unit tests. The following types of tests are also missing:

- **Edge Cases:** Tests for null, empty, and boundary values are missing.
- **Error Paths:** Exception handling is not tested.
- **Security Tests:** No security-specific tests were found.
- **Integration Tests:** There are no integration tests to verify the interaction between different components.
- **Performance Tests:** No load or stress tests were found.

## 5. Anti-Patterns

- **No Unit Tests:** The most significant anti-pattern is the complete lack of unit tests.
- **Lack of Mocking:** The existing feature tests do not consistently mock external dependencies.

## 6. Suggested Tests to Add

### Unit Tests

- Add unit tests for all classes in the `src` directory.
- Prioritize unit tests for critical components like `Core\\Bouncer`.

### Feature Tests

- Add feature tests for all public-facing endpoints.
- Add feature tests for all critical user flows.

### Integration Tests

- Add integration tests to verify the interaction between different components.

### Security Tests

- Add security tests to prevent common vulnerabilities like SQL injection and cross-site scripting.
