Feat : Proposal to Enhance Unit Test Coverage and Monitoring Integration.

[yashpandey06]

Overview

I am proposing a set of improvements aimed at strengthening our codebase by enhancing unit test coverage and monitoring integration for both frontend and backend sections of the project. These initiatives are being proposed for the LFX Mentorship Term 1, 2025 to align with our goals of improving code quality, security, and maintainability.

Proposed Improvements

Client code Enhancements

1. Integration of Jest for Unit Testing

   • Introduce Jest as the primary unit testing framework for all frontend components.
   • Focus on ensuring critical functionality is thoroughly tested, including edge cases.
   • Ensure seamless integration with existing testing pipelines.

2. Sentry Monitoring Integration

   • Enhance error monitoring by fully integrating Sentry with frontend workflows.
   • Add support for reporting and tracking errors in various frontend components.
   • Use Sentry's performance monitoring capabilities to optimize frontend performance metrics.

Go files Enhancements

1. Improving Unit Tests for Go Files

   • Increase test coverage for existing Go files, ensuring all critical paths are covered.
   • Introduce security-specific tests to validate safe handling of inputs and outputs.
   • Review and update test strategies to include edge cases and scenarios with higher security risks.

2. Secure Testing Practices

   • Incorporate fuzz testing where applicable to identify vulnerabilities.
   • Implement regular reviews of unit tests to keep them aligned with evolving security standards.
