ThrillWiki Test Suite Analysis

Date: 2025-01-07
Status: INFRASTRUCTURE REPAIRED - Tests Running Successfully
Migration Cleanup: ✅ COMPLETED

Test Infrastructure Status

✅ RESOLVED ISSUES

1. Missing __init__.py Files - FIXED

   • Created tests/__init__.py (top-level test directory)
   • Created search/tests/__init__.py (search app test directory)
   • Resolved Python module import conflicts

2. Test Database Creation - WORKING

   • Test database creates successfully
   • Migrations apply without errors
   • New entity relationships functional

✅ SUCCESSFUL TEST RESULTS

Search App Tests: 7/7 PASSING ✅

Found 7 test(s).
Creating test database for alias 'default'...
System check identified no issues (0 silenced).
.......
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 7 tests in 1.221s

OK

Key Validation: Search functionality with new entity structure is working correctly.

❌ IDENTIFIED ISSUES REQUIRING FIXES

Parks App Tests: 8/10 FAILING ❌

Primary Issue: Field name mismatch - tests still using owner field instead of new operator field

Error Pattern:

TypeError: Park() got unexpected keyword arguments: 'owner'

Affected Test Files:

1. parks/tests/test_filters.py - Line 54
2. parks/tests/test_models.py - Line 24 (setUp method)

Specific Failures:

• parks.tests.test_filters.ParkFilterTests.setUpClass
• parks.tests.test_models.ParkModelTests.test_absolute_url
• parks.tests.test_models.ParkModelTests.test_historical_slug_lookup
• parks.tests.test_models.ParkModelTests.test_location_integration
• parks.tests.test_models.ParkModelTests.test_park_creation
• parks.tests.test_models.ParkModelTests.test_slug_generation
• parks.tests.test_models.ParkModelTests.test_status_color_mapping

Additional Issue:

• parks.tests.test_models.ParkAreaModelTests.test_historical_slug_lookup - Data setup issue

Rides App Tests: NO TESTS FOUND

• Rides app has tests.py file but no test content discovered
• Need to verify if tests exist or need to be created

New Entity Apps: NOT TESTED YET

• operators - No test files found
• manufacturers - No test files found
• property_owners - No test files found

Required Test File Updates

1. Parks Test Files - Field Name Updates

Files needing updates:

• parks/tests/test_filters.py:54 - Change owner= to operator=
• parks/tests/test_models.py:24 - Change owner= to operator=

Pattern to fix:

# OLD (failing)
Park.objects.create(
    name="Test Park",
    owner=some_company,  # ❌ Field no longer exists
    ...
)

# NEW (required)
Park.objects.create(
    name="Test Park", 
    operator=some_operator,  # ✅ New field name
    ...
)

2. Entity Relationship Updates Needed

Tests need to create proper entity instances:

• Create Operator instances instead of Company instances
• Update foreign key references to use new entity structure
• Ensure test fixtures align with new entity relationships

Test Coverage Gaps

Missing Test Coverage:

1. New Entity Apps - No tests found for:

   • operators/ app
   • manufacturers/ app
   • property_owners/ app

2. Entity Relationship Integration - Need tests for:

   • Parks → Operators relationships
   • Rides → Manufacturers relationships
   • Cross-entity functionality

3. Rides App - Verify test content exists

Next Steps for Complete Test Suite

Immediate Fixes Required:

1. Update parks test files to use operator field instead of owner
2. Update test fixtures to create Operator instances
3. Verify rides app test content
4. Create basic tests for new entity apps

Validation Targets:

• Parks tests: 10/10 passing
• Rides tests: Verify and fix any issues
• New entity tests: Basic CRUD operations
• Integration tests: Cross-entity relationships

Summary

Infrastructure Status: ✅ FUNCTIONAL
Test Database: ✅ WORKING
Migration System: ✅ OPERATIONAL
Search Functionality: ✅ VERIFIED (7/7 tests passing)

Critical Issue: Parks tests failing due to field name mismatches (owner → operator)
Impact: 8/10 parks tests failing, but infrastructure is sound

The test suite infrastructure has been successfully repaired. The remaining issues are straightforward field name updates in test files, not structural problems.
