Add comprehensive testing infrastructure with xUnit, Playwright, and WebApplicationFactory

[Copilot]

Implements production-ready testing infrastructure across unit, integration, and E2E layers. Selected modern frameworks based on .NET 10/Angular 20 ecosystem best practices.

Testing Stack

Backend

• xUnit 2.9.2 for unit/integration tests (parallel execution, modern DI)
• Moq + FluentAssertions for isolation and readability
• WebApplicationFactory for realistic GraphQL API testing
• In-memory EF Core provider (zero external dependencies)

Frontend

• Playwright for E2E tests (cross-browser, auto-wait, GraphQL-friendly)
• Configured for CI with headless execution

Implementation

Unit Tests (17 passing)

// Services/JwtTokenServiceTests.cs - Token creation, roles, claims, expiration
// Services/AccountServiceTests.cs - CRUD, validation, authentication flows

Integration Tests (7 tests, 3 passing)

public class GraphQLTestFactory : WebApplicationFactory<Program>
{
    protected override void ConfigureWebHost(IWebHostBuilder builder)
    {
        builder.UseEnvironment("Testing");
        builder.ConfigureTestServices(services =>
        {
            services.Remove<DbContextOptions<BankTrackerDbContext>>();
            services.AddDbContext<BankTrackerDbContext>(options =>
                options.UseInMemoryDatabase("InMemoryTestDb"));
        });
    }
}

Modified Program.cs to skip database migrations in test environment:

if (!app.Environment.IsEnvironment("Testing"))
{
    using var scope = app.Services.CreateScope();
    scope.ServiceProvider.GetRequiredService<BankTrackerDbContext>()
        .Database.Migrate();
}

E2E Tests

// frontend/e2e/app.spec.ts - Homepage, login form, navigation
// playwright.config.ts - Chromium, screenshots on failure, trace on retry

The CreateTestAccountWithPassword helper method creates entirely new mock objects and a new service instance, which is complex and violates the DRY principle. This approach is used because password hashing needs to happen in the real service. Consider using a test builder pattern or extracting the password hashing logic to a separate testable component, allowing you to create test accounts with proper password hashes more simply.

Suggested change

	private async Task<Account> CreateTestAccountWithPassword(string email, string password)
	{
	var tempMockRepo = new Mock<IRepository<Account>>();
	var tempMockUow = new Mock<IUnitOfWork>();
	tempMockUow.Setup(u => u.Accounts).Returns(tempMockRepo.Object);
	tempMockRepo.Setup(r => r.GetSingleOrDefaultAsync(It.IsAny<Expression<Func<Account, bool>>>()))
	.ReturnsAsync((Account?)null);
	tempMockRepo.Setup(r => r.AddAsync(It.IsAny<Account>()))
	.ReturnsAsync((Account a) => a);
	tempMockUow.Setup(u => u.SaveChangesAsync())
	.ReturnsAsync(1);
	var tempService = new AccountService(tempMockUow.Object);
	var account = await tempService.CreateAccountAsync(email, password);
	return account!;
	}
	private static string HashPassword(string password)
	{
	// Use the same hashing logic as in AccountService (BCrypt)
	return BCrypt.Net.BCrypt.HashPassword(password);
	}
	private Task<Account> CreateTestAccountWithPassword(string email, string password)
	{
	var account = new Account
	{
	Id = Guid.NewGuid(),
	Email = email,
	PasswordHash = HashPassword(password),
	CreatedAt = DateTime.UtcNow
	};
	return Task.FromResult(account);
	}

The account creation result is not checked before attempting login. If account creation fails, the login test will also fail but for the wrong reason, making debugging harder. Consider verifying the creation response before proceeding.

Suggested change

	await _client.PostAsJsonAsync("/graphql", new { query = createQuery });
	var createResponse = await _client.PostAsJsonAsync("/graphql", new { query = createQuery });
	var createContent = await createResponse.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
	createResponse.StatusCode.Should().Be(System.Net.HttpStatusCode.OK);
	createContent.Should().NotContain("\"errors\"", "Account creation should succeed before attempting login");
	createContent.Should().Contain("\"id\"", "Account creation response should contain an id");

The in-memory database name "InMemoryTestDb" is shared across all tests. Since xUnit runs tests in parallel by default, this could lead to race conditions where tests interfere with each other's data. Consider using a unique database name per test instance (e.g., using a GUID) to ensure proper test isolation:

options.UseInMemoryDatabase($"InMemoryTestDb_{Guid.NewGuid()}");

The list shows 11 items but item 11 and 12 are listed separately after "Login with valid credentials", causing confusion. The structure should clearly show 11 distinct test cases matching the "(11/11)" count in line 41.

Suggested change

	- ✅ Login with valid credentials
	- ✅ Login with invalid password
	- ✅ Login with non-existent email
	- ✅ Login
	- with valid credentials
	- with invalid password
	- with non-existent email

The addition of x64 and x86 platform configurations (Debug|x64, Debug|x86, Release|x64, Release|x86) is unnecessary for .NET projects which typically only use "Any CPU". These additional configurations add complexity without benefit and increase the solution file size. Consider removing the x64 and x86 platform configurations unless there's a specific requirement for platform-specific builds.

Suggested change

	Debug|x64 = Debug|x64
	Debug|x86 = Debug|x86
	Release|Any CPU = Release|Any CPU
	Release|x64 = Release|x64
	Release|x86 = Release|x86

The timeout of 10000ms (10 seconds) is only applied to the email input check, not the password input. For consistency and to avoid flakiness, apply the same timeout to both assertions, or configure a global timeout in the Playwright config.

Suggested change

	await expect(passwordInput).toBeVisible();
	await expect(passwordInput).toBeVisible({ timeout: 10000 });

[Copilot]

The TOTAL_TESTS, PASSED_TESTS, and FAILED_TESTS variables are initialized but never actually used to count or track test results. Consider either removing these unused variables or implementing proper test counting logic by parsing the dotnet test output.

Suggested change

	TOTAL_TESTS=0
	PASSED_TESTS=0
	FAILED_TESTS=0

The GraphQL query string is duplicated across multiple tests with only minor variations (email addresses). Consider extracting common query patterns into reusable helper methods or constants to follow the DRY principle. For example:

private static string CreateAccountMutation(string email, string password) =>
    $@"mutation {{
        createAccount(email: ""{email}"", password: ""{password}"") {{
            id
            email
            createdAt
        }}
    }}";

[Copilot]

The result of the first account creation is not checked or stored. If the first creation fails, the test may produce a false positive. Consider storing the response and verifying it succeeded before proceeding to test the duplicate email scenario.

Suggested change

	await _client.PostAsJsonAsync("/graphql", new { query = createQuery });
	var firstResponse = await _client.PostAsJsonAsync("/graphql", new { query = createQuery });
	firstResponse.StatusCode.Should().Be(System.Net.HttpStatusCode.OK);
	var firstContent = await firstResponse.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
	firstContent.Should().NotContain("errors", "First account creation should succeed to properly test duplicate scenario");

[Copilot]

A new instance of AccountService is created unnecessarily when _accountService (initialized in the constructor) could be reused. This creates inconsistency with other tests in the class. Either use the existing _accountService instance or add a comment explaining why a new instance is needed here.

Suggested change

	var accountService = new AccountService(_mockUnitOfWork.Object);
	var createdAccount = await CreateTestAccountWithPassword(email, password);
	_mockAccountRepository.Setup(r => r.GetSingleOrDefaultAsync(It.IsAny<Expression<Func<Account, bool>>>()))
	.ReturnsAsync(createdAccount);
	// Act
	var result = await accountService.LoginAccountAsync(email, password);
	var createdAccount = await CreateTestAccountWithPassword(email, password);
	_mockAccountRepository.Setup(r => r.GetSingleOrDefaultAsync(It.IsAny<Expression<Func<Account, bool>>>()))
	.ReturnsAsync(createdAccount);
	// Act
	var result = await _accountService.LoginAccountAsync(email, password);
