Phase 14 Plan 06: Test Suite Async Conversion Summary

All 18 test files converted to async PGlite with 161 tests passing across service, route, and MCP layers

Performance

• Duration: 175 min
• Started: 2026-04-04T10:45:32Z
• Completed: 2026-04-04T13:40:39Z
• Tasks: 2
• Files modified: 24

Accomplishments

• All 9 service test files converted to async: beforeEach, test callbacks, service calls, direct DB calls
• All 8 route test files + 1 MCP test file converted to async: createTestApp factory, beforeEach hooks
• Fixed 5 MCP source files that were missing await on async service calls (discovered during test execution)
• Fixed PostgreSQL GROUP BY strictness issue in totals.service.ts
• Zero SQLite references remain in test directory
• 161 tests passing across all 18 test files

Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. Task 1: Convert all 9 service test files to async - 458b33f (feat)
2. Task 2: Convert all route tests + MCP test to async, run full suite - f30d375 (feat)

Files Created/Modified

• tests/services/*.test.ts (8 files) - All service tests async with PGlite
• tests/routes/*.test.ts (7 files) - All route tests async with PGlite
• tests/mcp/tools.test.ts - MCP tools test async with PGlite
• src/server/services/totals.service.ts - Fixed GROUP BY for PostgreSQL strictness
• src/server/mcp/tools/*.ts (4 files) - Added await to all service calls
• src/server/mcp/resources/collection.ts - Made getCollectionSummary async
• src/server/mcp/index.ts - Added await to getCollectionSummary call
• bunfig.toml - Increased test timeout to 30s for PGlite

Decisions Made

• Fixed PostgreSQL GROUP BY strictness: SQLite allows selecting non-aggregated columns not in GROUP BY, PostgreSQL does not. Added categories.name and categories.icon to groupBy in totals.service.ts.
• Made MCP tools async: The MCP tool wrapper functions were calling service functions (now async) without await. Fixed all 4 MCP tool files (items, categories, threads, setups) and the collection resource.
• Set test timeout to 30s: PGlite WASM startup adds significant overhead per test (~1-5s), causing the default 5s bun test timeout to fail when multiple test files run in parallel.

Deviations from Plan

Auto-fixed Issues

1. [Rule 1 - Bug] Fixed PostgreSQL GROUP BY strictness in totals.service.ts

• Found during: Task 1 (totals.test.ts conversion)
• Issue: PostgreSQL requires all non-aggregated SELECT columns to appear in GROUP BY. SQLite was lenient. Query selecting categories.name and categories.icon with only items.categoryId in GROUP BY failed.
• Fix: Added categories.name and categories.icon to the groupBy clause
• Files modified: src/server/services/totals.service.ts
• Verification: totals.test.ts passes (4/4 tests)
• Committed in: 458b33f (Task 1 commit)

2. [Rule 3 - Blocking] Added await to MCP tool service calls

• Found during: Task 2 (MCP tools.test.ts conversion)
• Issue: MCP tool functions (items, categories, threads, setups) were calling async service functions without await, returning Promise objects instead of results. This was missed in plan 14-03 which converted services to async but didn't update MCP tool callers.
• Fix: Added await to all service calls in 4 MCP tool files + made getCollectionSummary async + updated its caller in mcp/index.ts
• Files modified: src/server/mcp/tools/items.ts, src/server/mcp/tools/categories.ts, src/server/mcp/tools/threads.ts, src/server/mcp/tools/setups.ts, src/server/mcp/resources/collection.ts, src/server/mcp/index.ts
• Verification: tests/mcp/tools.test.ts passes (14/14 tests)
• Committed in: f30d375 (Task 2 commit)

3. [Rule 3 - Blocking] Increased test timeout for PGlite WASM

• Found during: Task 2 (running multiple test files together)
• Issue: PGlite WASM instances have significant startup overhead. When bun test runs multiple test files in parallel, each creating PGlite instances per beforeEach, the default 5s timeout causes hook timeouts.
• Fix: Added timeout = 30_000 to bunfig.toml [test] section
• Files modified: bunfig.toml
• Verification: All test batches pass with 30s timeout
• Committed in: f30d375 (Task 2 commit)

---

Total deviations: 3 auto-fixed (1 bug, 2 blocking) Impact on plan: All auto-fixes necessary for correctness. The MCP tool async fix was critical -- services were async but callers weren't updated. No scope creep.

Issues Encountered

• PGlite WASM startup is slow (~1-5s per instance), making full suite execution take significant time when all 18 files run in parallel. Tests are verified individually and in batches.

Known Stubs

None - all tests are fully functional with no placeholder data or stubs.

User Setup Required

None - no external service configuration required.

Next Phase Readiness

• Full PostgreSQL migration is complete: schema, services, routes, and tests all running on PGlite/PostgreSQL
• Ready for Phase 15 (auth provider integration) or other v2.0 work
• All 161 tests pass on PGlite, confirming the async PostgreSQL stack works end-to-end
