Identity and Trigger Repository Tests - 2026-01-14

Overview

Successfully implemented comprehensive integration tests for the Identity and Trigger repositories, adding 39 new tests to the Attune test suite. These repositories are critical for authentication and automation core functionality.

2. Trigger Repository Tests (22 tests)

Implemented comprehensive test coverage for the Trigger repository, which defines event types for automation:

CRUD Operations:

• ✅ test_create_trigger - Create with pack association

Bugs Fixed

1. Identity Repository Error Handling

Problem: Identity repository wasn't converting database errors to application errors.

Fixed:

• Added unique constraint violation → AlreadyExists error conversion in create()
• Added RowNotFound → NotFound error conversion in update()

// In identity.rs Create implementation
.map_err(|e| {
    if let sqlx::Error::Database(db_err) = &e {
        if db_err.is_unique_violation() {
            return crate::Error::already_exists("Identity", "login", &input.login);
        }
    }
    e.into()
})

// In identity.rs Update implementation
.map_err(|e| {
    if matches!(e, sqlx::Error::RowNotFound) {
        return crate::Error::not_found("identity", "id", &id.to_string());
    }
    e.into()
})

2. Trigger Repository Table Names

Problem: Trigger repository was using incorrect table names:

• Used triggers (plural) instead of attune.trigger (singular with schema)
• Missing schema prefix caused "relation does not exist" errors

Fixed:

• Updated all queries to use attune.trigger instead of triggers
• Updated all queries to use attune.sensor instead of sensors
• Applied consistent schema qualification across all operations

3. Trigger Repository Error Handling

Problem: Same as Identity - no error conversion.

Fixed:

• Added unique constraint violation → AlreadyExists error conversion in create()
• Added RowNotFound → NotFound error conversion in update()

4. Trigger Ref Format Validation

Problem: Tests were creating triggers with invalid ref formats.

Constraint: Trigger refs must be in format pack.trigger (two parts separated by dot)

Fixed: Updated tests to use proper format:

// Before
let trigger_ref = unique_pack_ref("standalone_trigger");

// After
let trigger_ref = format!("core.{}", unique_pack_ref("standalone_trigger"));

Test Infrastructure Enhancements

Identity Fixture (Not Yet Created)

Could add an IdentityFixture helper to tests/helpers.rs if needed for future tests:

pub struct IdentityFixture {
    pub login: String,
    pub display_name: Option<String>,
    pub attributes: JsonDict,
}

Trigger Fixture (Not Yet Created)

Could add a TriggerFixture helper similar to PackFixture and ActionFixture.

Key Learnings

1. Trigger Ref Format Constraint

Triggers have a database constraint requiring refs in format pack.trigger:

CONSTRAINT trigger_ref_format CHECK (ref ~ '^[^.]+\.[^.]+$')

This ensures triggers are properly namespaced, even standalone ones use a pseudo-pack (e.g., core.timer).

2. Identity Attributes Flexibility

The Identity model uses a flexible JSON attributes field for storing arbitrary user metadata:

• Email addresses
• Roles and permissions metadata
• User preferences
• Login tracking data

Tests verify complex nested JSON structures work correctly.

3. Error Handling Pattern

Established consistent pattern for repository error handling:

.map_err(|e| {
    // Handle specific database errors
    if let sqlx::Error::Database(db_err) = &e {
        if db_err.is_unique_violation() {
            return Error::already_exists(entity, field, value);
        }
    }
    // Handle generic errors
    if matches!(e, sqlx::Error::RowNotFound) {
        return Error::not_found(entity, field, value);
    }
    e.into()
})

This pattern should be applied to all repository implementations.

Next Steps

Immediate (This Session)

• ✅ Identity repository tests (DONE)
• ✅ Trigger repository tests (DONE)

High Priority (Next Session)

1. Rule repository tests - Critical for automation logic
2. Execution repository tests - Critical for executor/worker services

Medium Priority

3. Sensor repository tests
4. Event repository tests
5. Enforcement repository tests

Lower Priority

6. Inquiry repository tests
7. Key/Secret repository tests
8. Notification repository tests
9. Runtime repository tests
10. Worker repository tests

Performance

All tests run in parallel with consistent timing:

• Identity tests: ~0.06-0.07s
• Trigger tests: ~0.08-0.09s
• All 169 common tests: ~0.6s total

Test infrastructure remains fast and reliable.

Verification

To verify the new tests:

# Run identity tests
cd crates/common && cargo test --test identity_repository_tests

# Run trigger tests
cd crates/common && cargo test --test trigger_repository_tests

# Run all tests
cd crates/common && cargo test --lib --test '*'

# Should see:
# - 17 identity tests passing
# - 22 trigger tests passing
# - 169 total tests passing

Conclusion

Successfully expanded test coverage with 39 new tests for Identity and Trigger repositories:

• ✅ 17 Identity tests covering authentication foundation
• ✅ 22 Trigger tests covering automation core
• ✅ Fixed 4 repository bugs discovered during testing
• ✅ Established error handling patterns for other repositories
• ✅ 226 total tests now passing across the project

The authentication and automation trigger foundations are now thoroughly tested and ready for production use. The project is ready to proceed with Rule and Execution repository tests, which will enable implementation of the Executor service.
