Testing Omega Quality

Master comprehensive testing strategies covering all quality dimensions - accuracy, performance, security, and accessibility.

Quick Start

# 1. Define test strategy with 4 dimensions
TestStrategy:
  Accuracy: { unit: 80%, integration: 60%, e2e: "critical paths" }
  Performance: { p95: "<200ms", concurrent: 50 }
  Security: { injection: true, auth: true, xss: true }
  Accessibility: { wcag: "2.1 AA", keyboard: true }

# 2. Follow the test pyramid
Pyramid:
  Unit: 80%        # Fast, isolated, business logic
  Component: 70%   # UI components with mocks
  Integration: 60% # API endpoints, data flow
  E2E: "critical"  # Happy paths, auth, checkout

# 3. Run quality gates in CI
Gates: ["coverage > 80%", "no-security-issues", "a11y-pass"]

Common Patterns

The Omega Test Pyramid

            /\
           /E2E\          <- Critical paths only (slowest)
          /─────\
         / Visual \       <- Screenshot comparisons
        /───────────\
       / Integration \    <- Service boundaries, APIs
      /───────────────\
     /   Component     \  <- UI components isolated
    /───────────────────\
   /        Unit         \ <- Fast, business logic (most)
  /─────────────────────────\

Four Quality Dimensions

interface OmegaTestSuite {
  accuracy: {
    happyPath: Test[];    // Normal use cases
    edgeCases: Test[];    // Boundary conditions
    errorCases: Test[];   // Failure handling
  };
  performance: {
    responseTime: Test[]; // p50, p95, p99 latency
    throughput: Test[];   // Requests per second
    memory: Test[];       // Leak detection
  };
  security: {
    authentication: Test[];
    authorization: Test[];
    injection: Test[];    // SQL, XSS prevention
  };
  accessibility: {
    wcag: Test[];         // WCAG 2.1 AA
    keyboard: Test[];     // Tab navigation
    screenReader: Test[]; // ARIA labels
  };
}

Unit Testing Patterns

// Arrange-Act-Assert pattern
describe('calculateDiscount', () => {
  it('applies 10% discount for orders over $100', () => {
    // Arrange
    const order = createOrder({ subtotal: 150 });

    // Act
    const result = calculateDiscount(order);

    // Assert
    expect(result.discount).toBe(15);
    expect(result.total).toBe(135);
  });
});

// Parameterized edge cases
it.each([
  ['missing @', 'userexample.com', false],
  ['valid format', '[e-mail]', true],
  ['empty string', '', false],
])('validateEmail %s: %s -> %s', (_desc, email, expected) => {
  expect(validateEmail(email)).toBe(expected);
});

// Property-based testing
it('sorted array has same length as input', () => {
  fc.assert(fc.property(fc.array(fc.()),  {
     (arr). === arr.;
  }));
});

Integration Testing

describe('UserService Integration', () => {
  let db: TestDatabase;

  beforeAll(async () => { db = await createTestDatabase(); });
  afterAll(async () => { await cleanupTestDatabase(db); });

  it('persists user to database', async () => {
    const user = await userService.createUser({
      email: '[e-mail]', name: 'Test'
    });

    const dbUser = await db.query('SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = $1', [user.id]);
    expect(dbUser.email).toBe('[e-mail]');
  });

  it('rolls back transaction on failure', async () => {
    vi.spyOn(db, 'commit').mockRejectedValueOnce(new Error('DB error'));

    await expect(userService.transfer(from, to, 50)).rejects.toThrow();

    
    ( userService.()).(originalBalance);
  });
});

Performance Testing

describe('API Performance', () => {
  it('responds within SLA', async () => {
    const times: number[] = [];
    for (let i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
      const start = performance.now();
      await api.get('/users');
      times.push(performance.now() - start);
    }

    expect(percentile(times, 50)).toBeLessThan(50);   // p50 < 50ms
    expect(percentile(times, 95)).toBeLessThan(100);  // p95 < 100ms
    expect(percentile(times, 99)).toBeLessThan(200);  // p99 < 200ms
  });

  it('handles concurrent load', async () => {
    const requests = Array(50).fill(null).map(() => api.get('/users'));
     responses =  .(requests);

    (responses.( r. === )).();
  });
});

Security Testing

describe('Security Tests', () => {
  const sqlPayloads = ["'; DROP TABLE users; --", "' OR '1'='1"];
  const xssPayloads = ['<script>alert("xss")</script>', '<img onerror=alert(1)>'];

  it.each(sqlPayloads)('prevents SQL injection: %s', async (payload) => {
    const response = await api.get(`/users?search=${encodeURIComponent(payload)}`);
    expect(response.status).not.toBe(500);
    expect(await db.query('SELECT * FROM users')).toBeDefined();
  });

  it.each(xssPayloads)('escapes XSS payload: %s', async (payload) => {
    await api.post('/posts', { content: payload });
    const html = (await api.get('/posts')).body.posts[0].content;
    expect(html).not.toContain('<script>');
  });

  it('rate limits login attempts',  () => {
     ( i = ; i < ; i++) {
       api.(, { : , :  });
    }
     response =  api.(, { : , :  });
    (response.).();
  });
});

Accessibility Testing

test.describe('Accessibility', () => {
  test('page has no WCAG violations', async ({ page }) => {
    await page.goto('/');
    const results = await new AxeBuilder({ page })
      .withTags(['wcag2a', 'wcag2aa', 'wcag21aa'])
      .analyze();
    expect(results.violations).toEqual([]);
  });

  test('keyboard navigation works', async ({ page }) => {
    await page.goto('/');
    const focusable = 'a, button, input, [tabindex]:not([tabindex="-1"])';
    const elements = await page.locator(focusable).all();

    for (const _ of elements) {
      await page.keyboard.press('Tab');
      const focused = await page.evaluate(() => document.activeElement?.tagName);
      expect(focused).toBeDefined();
    }
  });

  (,  ({ page }) => {
     images =  page.().();
     ( img  images) {
      ( img.()).();
    }
  });
});

E2E Critical Path

test('complete purchase flow', async ({ page }) => {
  // Login
  await loginAsTestUser(page);

  // Add to cart
  await page.goto('/products/test-product');
  await page.click('[data-testid="add-to-cart"]');

  // Checkout
  await page.click('[data-testid="checkout-button"]');
  await page.fill('[data-testid="card-number"]', '4242424242424242');
  await page.click('[data-testid="place-order"]');

  // Verify
  await expect(page).toHaveURL(/\/orders\/[a-z0-9-]+/);
  await expect(page.locator('[data-testid="order-status"]'))
    .toHaveText('Order Confirmed');
});

Best Practices

Do	Avoid
Test all four quality dimensions	Testing only happy paths
Follow the test pyramid (more units)	Relying heavily on E2E tests
Use descriptive test names	Testing implementation details
Test edge cases systematically	Writing flaky tests
Keep tests independent (no shared state)	Using sleep/delays for timing
Use factories for test data	Hardcoding test data
Mock external dependencies in unit tests	Over-mocking in integration tests
Run tests in CI on every commit	Ignoring failing tests
Fix flaky tests immediately	Skipping tests without reason
Chase meaningful coverage, not 100%	Testing framework code
