Overview
Thorough testing ensures your provider integration is reliable, secure, and handles edge cases properly.Testing Strategy
Unit Tests
Test individual methods in isolation
Integration Tests
Test OAuth flows end-to-end
Manual Testing
Verify in real environment
Unit Testing
Test individual provider methods:tests/test_yourprovider.py
Integration Testing
Test complete OAuth flows:Manual Testing
1. Test OAuth Link
2. Test Callback
After authorization, verify the callback was successful:"status": "connected"
3. Test Data Pull
4. Verify Data
Test Scenarios
Happy Path
Happy Path
Test normal operation:
- Fresh OAuth connection
- Data fetch with valid tokens
- Proper data transformation
- Successful database storage
Error Handling
Error Handling
Test error scenarios:
- Invalid OAuth credentials
- Expired tokens
- API rate limiting
- Network failures
- Malformed API responses
- Missing required fields
Edge Cases
Edge Cases
Test edge cases:
- Empty data responses
- Very large datasets
- Duplicate records
- Time zone conversions
- Null/missing values
Mocking External APIs
Use mocks for unit tests:Test Data
Create realistic test data:Continuous Integration
Add provider tests to CI pipeline:.github/workflows/test-providers.yml
Next Steps
