## Test Pyramid Structure

```
                 /\
                /E2E\          5% - End-to-End (Full system)
               /------\
              /Integr. \       20% - Integration (Component interaction)
             /----------\
            /   Unit     \     75% - Unit (Individual components)
           /--------------\
```

## Test Categories

## Test Data Management

### Test Configuration Files

- `src/test/resources/test-config-invalid.yaml` - Invalid format testing
- `src/test/resources/test-config-minimal.yaml` - Minimal valid config
- `src/test/resources/test-config-maximal.yaml` - Maximum complexity config

### Test Data Generators
- `TestDataFactory` - Create test log entries
- `TestConfigurationBuilder` - Fluent configuration creation
- `TestEndpointBuilder` - HTTP/gRPC endpoint creation

### Mock Server Definitions
- `HttpMockServerSetup` - WireMock server configuration
- `GrpcMockServerSetup` - gRPC test server configuration

## Test Execution Strategy

### Local Development
```bash
# Run all unit tests
mvn test

# Run integration tests
mvn verify -P integration-tests

# Run performance tests
mvn verify -P performance-tests

# Run all tests with coverage
mvn verify -P all-tests jacoco:report
```

### CI/CD Pipeline
1. **Commit Stage**: Unit tests (fast feedback)
2. **Integration Stage**: Integration tests + unit tests
3. **Performance Stage**: Performance tests (nightly)
4. **Compliance Stage**: Compliance validation + audit report

### Test Execution Order
1. Unit tests (parallel execution)
2. Integration tests (sequential by category)
3. E2E tests (sequential)
4. Performance tests (isolated environment)

## Assertion Strategy

### Unit Tests
```java
// Use AssertJ for fluent assertions
assertThat(config.getEndpoints())
    .isNotEmpty()
    .hasSize(3)
    .allMatch(e -> e.getUrl() != null);

// Verify mock interactions
verify(grpcClient, times(1)).sendLogData(any());
verifyNoMoreInteractions(grpcClient);
```

### Integration Tests
```java
// Await asynchronous results
await().atMost(5, SECONDS)
    .untilAsserted(() ->
        assertThat(buffer.size()).isGreaterThan(0));

// Verify WireMock interactions
wireMock.verify(exactly(1),
    getRequestedFor(urlEqualTo("/health")));
```

### Performance Tests
```java
// JMH benchmark assertions
assertThat(result.getScore())
    .isLessThan(1000); // ops/ms threshold

// Memory assertions
assertThat(memoryUsed)
    .isLessThan(4096 * 1024 * 1024L); // 4096 MB
```

## Coverage Requirements

### Minimum Coverage Thresholds
- **Line Coverage**: 85% overall, 90% for critical components
- **Branch Coverage**: 80% overall, 85% for decision logic
- **Method Coverage**: 90% overall

### Excluded from Coverage
- Generated code (Protocol Buffers, builders)
- Main entry points (`public static void main`)
- Exception constructors
- Trivial getters/setters

### Coverage Tools
- **JaCoCo** - Code coverage measurement
- **SonarQube** - Coverage analysis and technical debt tracking

## Test Naming Convention

### Unit Tests
```
should{ExpectedBehavior}_when{Condition}_given{State}

Examples:
- shouldReturnConfiguration_whenFileExists_givenValidYaml()
- shouldThrowException_whenFileNotFound_givenInvalidPath()
```

### Integration Tests
```
should{IntegrateComponents}_when{Scenario}_given{Setup}

Examples:
- shouldCollectData_whenHttpEndpointResponds_givenMockServer()
- shouldRetryTransmission_whenGrpcFails_givenRetryPolicy()
```

### Performance Tests
```
should{MeetRequirement}_when{LoadCondition}_given{SystemState}

Examples:
- shouldHandleConcurrentEndpoints_whenLoading1000Endpoints_givenVirtualThreads()
- shouldStayWithinMemoryLimit_whenBufferFull_givenMaxCapacity()
```

## Mock Strategy

### What to Mock
- External HTTP endpoints (WireMock)
- gRPC server connections (in-process test server)
- File system operations (optional, prefer test files)
- Time-dependent operations (Clock abstraction)

### What NOT to Mock
- Domain objects (value objects, entities)
- In-memory data structures (test real implementation)
- Simple utilities (no behavior to mock)
- Configuration objects (use test builders)

### Mockito Patterns
```java
// Stub return values
when(configLoader.load(anyString()))
    .thenReturn(testConfiguration);

// Verify interactions
verify(transmitter).send(argThat(data ->
    data.getTimestamp().isAfter(testStart)));

// Spy on real objects
ConfigurationLoader spy = spy(realConfigLoader);
doReturn(testConfig).when(spy).loadFromFile(any());
```

## Test Environment Setup

### Test Resources
```
src/test/
├── java/
│   └── com/logcollector/
│       ├── unit/           # Unit tests
│       ├── integration/    # Integration tests
│       ├── e2e/           # End-to-end tests
│       ├── performance/   # Performance tests
│       └── util/          # Test utilities
└── resources/
    ├── test-config.yaml
    ├── logback-test.xml   # Test logging config
    └── mockito-extensions/
```

### Test Fixtures
- `@BeforeEach` - Test-specific setup
- `@BeforeAll` - Class-level setup (expensive resources)
- `@AfterEach` - Test cleanup
- `@AfterAll` - Class-level cleanup

### Test Isolation
- Each test creates its own data
- No shared mutable state between tests
- Independent test execution order
- Parallel test execution where possible

## Continuous Testing

### Pre-Commit Hooks
- Run unit tests locally
- Verify code style (Checkstyle)
- Static analysis (SpotBugs)

### CI/CD Integration
- Automated test execution on every commit
- Coverage trend tracking
- Performance regression detection
- Test failure notifications

### Test Reporting
- JUnit XML reports for CI tools
- HTML coverage reports (JaCoCo)
- Test execution time tracking
- Flaky test detection

## Requirement Traceability

Every test class includes Javadoc with requirement mapping:

```java
/**
 * Tests for ConfigurationLoader component.
 *
 * @validates Req-FR-11 - Configuration file detection
 * @validates Req-FR-12 - Configuration parsing
 * @validates Req-FR-13 - Configuration validation
 * @validates Req-Norm-3 - Error detection
 */
@DisplayName("Configuration Loader Tests")
class ConfigurationLoaderTest {
    // Test methods...
}
```

See `test-requirement-mapping.md` for complete test-to-requirement matrix.
