Proposal: Increase Test Coverage to 80%+

Overview

Our current test coverage is below the desired threshold. We propose increasing our overall test coverage to 80%+ by expanding our suite of unit tests, integration tests, and end-to-end (e2e) tests.

Motivation

• Enhanced Reliability: Higher test coverage will help catch regressions and issues early.
• Improved Code Quality: Comprehensive tests enforce better design and encourage refactoring.
• Faster Development: Confidence in code changes allows for quicker iterations and smoother releases.

Proposed Changes

1. Unit Tests:

   • Write tests for core functions and components.
   • Target at least 80% coverage for each module.

2. Integration Tests:

   • Develop tests that validate the interactions between components and external systems.
   • Ensure that data flow and error handling are working as expected.

3. End-to-End (E2E) Tests:

   • Implement e2e tests simulating real user scenarios.
   • Automate tests for critical user journeys and business workflows.

Plan

• Assessment:

  • Audit current test coverage to identify gaps and prioritize critical areas.

• Execution:

  • Incrementally add tests while continuously monitoring coverage metrics.
  • Integrate coverage reporting into the CI/CD pipeline to enforce a minimum threshold.

• Maintenance:

  • Regularly review and update tests to keep pace with evolving codebase and features.

Benefits

• Increased Stability: Reduces risk of bugs and regressions.
• Faster Debugging: Easier to pinpoint issues with thorough tests.
• Better Documentation: Tests serve as a form of executable documentation for system behavior.
