15.3 Test Categories

1. Unit Tests

Purpose: Test individual functions and methods in isolation

Examples

  • Test greedy algorithm with specific amount
  • Test currency validation function
  • Test denomination sorting
  • Test summary calculation

Coverage

Should cover all calculation modes, edge cases, and error conditions

2. Integration Tests

Purpose: Test interaction between multiple components

Examples

  • API endpoint → Engine → Database
  • File upload → OCR → Parsing → Calculation
  • Settings update → Database → API response

Test Cases

def test_end_to_end_calculation():
    """Test complete flow from API to database."""
    # 1. Make calculation request
    response = client.post("/api/v1/calculate", json={
        "amount": 1850,
        "currency": "INR",
        "mode": "greedy"
    })
    
    # 2. Verify response
    assert response.status_code == 200
    calculation_id = response.json()["calculation_id"]
    
    # 3. Verify saved to database
    history = client.get(f"/api/v1/history/{calculation_id}")
    assert history.status_code == 200
    assert history.json()["amount"] == 1850

3. API Tests

Purpose: Test all API endpoints with various inputs

        "greedy"
    )
    
    end = time.perf_counter()
    duration_ms = (end - start) * 1000
    
    assert duration_ms < 1.0, f"Took {duration_ms}ms (limit: 1ms)"

def test_bulk_calculation_performance():
    """100 calculations should complete in < 100ms."""
    start = time.perf_counter()
    
    for i in range(100):
        engine.calculate(
            Decimal(str(1000 + i)),
            "INR",
            "greedy"
        )
