Summary

Establish a comprehensive testing infrastructure with enforced code coverage requirements, integration test harnesses, E2E test suites, and automated quality gates to ensure reliability and maintainability of the ScribeMed platform.

Background

Currently, the codebase has minimal test coverage with only 2 test files (config.test.js and health.test.js). This creates significant risk for:

• Undetected regressions when making changes
• Difficulty onboarding new developers
• Production bugs due to untested code paths
• HIPAA compliance issues from data handling errors

Acceptance Criteria

• Test coverage enforcement at minimum 70% across all packages and services
• Unit test suites for all shared packages (auth, logging, monitoring, config, utils, types)
• Integration tests for all API endpoints and service integrations
• E2E tests for critical user workflows (authentication, clinical documentation, transcription)
• CI pipeline fails builds that don't meet coverage thresholds
• Test fixtures and mock data for healthcare scenarios (FHIR resources, clinical notes)
• Database testing utilities with transaction rollback support
• Performance regression tests for API response times
• Contract testing between services
• Documentation for testing patterns and best practices
