name: api-test-suite-generator
description: Generates comprehensive API test suites using Jest, Vitest, or Supertest from Express, Next.js, Fastify, or other API routes. Creates integration tests, contract tests, and edge case coverage. Use when users request "generate api tests", "create endpoint tests", "api test suite", or "integration tests for api".

# API Test Suite Generator

Generate comprehensive API test suites automatically from your route definitions.

## Core Workflow

1. **Scan routes**: Find all API route definitions
2. **Analyze contracts**: Extract request/response schemas
3. **Generate tests**: Create test files for each resource
4. **Add assertions**: Status codes, response structure, headers
5. **Include edge cases**: Invalid inputs, auth, not found
6. **Setup fixtures**: Test data and database seeding

## Test Structure

```
tests/
├── setup.ts              # Global test setup
├── fixtures/             # Test data
│   ├── users.ts
│   └── products.ts
├── integration/          # API integration tests
│   ├── users.test.ts
│   ├── products.test.ts
│   └── auth.test.ts
└── helpers/              # Test utilities
    ├── api-client.ts
    └── auth.ts
```

## Test Setup (Vitest/Jest)

```typescript
// tests/setup.ts
import { beforeAll, afterAll, beforeEach, afterEach } from "vitest";
import { createServer } from "../src/server";
import { prisma } from "../src/db";

let server: ReturnType<typeof createServer>;

beforeAll(async () => {
  server = await createServer();
  await server.listen({ port: 0 }); // Random port
  process.env.TEST_BASE_URL = `http://localhost:${server.address().port}`;
});

afterAll(async () => {
  await server.close();
  await prisma.$disconnect();
});

beforeEach(async () => {
  // Clean database before each test
  await prisma.$executeRaw`TRUNCATE TABLE users CASCADE`;
});

afterEach(async () => {
  // Cleanup after each test
});

export { server };
```

## API Test Client

```typescript
// tests/helpers/api-client.ts
import supertest from "supertest";

const baseUrl = process.env.TEST_BASE_URL || "http://localhost:3000";

export const api = supertest(baseUrl);

export async function authenticatedApi(token?: string) {
  const authToken = token || (await getTestAuthToken());
  return {
    get: (url: string) => api.get(url).set("Authorization", `Bearer ${authToken}`),
    post: (url: string) => api.post(url).set("Authorization", `Bearer ${authToken}`),
    put: (url: string) => api.put(url).set("Authorization", `Bearer ${authToken}`),
    patch: (url: string) => api.patch(url).set("Authorization", `Bearer ${authToken}`),
    delete: (url: string) => api.delete(url).set("Authorization", `Bearer ${authToken}`),
  };
}

async function getTestAuthToken(): Promise<string> {
  const response = await api.post("/api/auth/login").send({
    email: "[email protected]",
    password: "testpassword",
  });
  return response.body.token;
}
```

## Test Fixtures

```typescript
// tests/fixtures/users.ts
import { prisma } from "../../src/db";
import { faker } from "@faker-js/faker";

interface CreateUserOptions {
  name?: string;
  email?: string;
  role?: string;
}

export async function createUser(options: CreateUserOptions = {}) {
  return prisma.user.create({
    data: {
      name: options.name ?? faker.person.fullName(),
      email: options.email ?? faker.internet.email(),
      role: options.role ?? "user",
      password: await hashPassword("testpassword"),
    },
  });
}

export async function createUsers(count: number) {
  const users = Array.from({ length: count }, () => ({
    name: faker.person.fullName(),
    email: faker.internet.email(),
    role: "user",
    password: "hashed-password",
  }));

  return prisma.user.createMany({ data: users });
}

export async function createAdminUser() {
  return createUser({ role: "admin" });
}
```

## Contract Testing

```typescript
// tests/contract/users.contract.test.ts
import { describe, it, expect } from "vitest";
import { api, authenticatedApi } from "../helpers/api-client";
import { z } from "zod";

// Response schemas
const UserSchema = z.object({
  id: z.string().uuid(),
  name: z.string(),
  email: z.string().email(),
  role: z.enum(["user", "admin"]),
  createdAt: z.string().datetime(),
});

const PaginatedUsersSchema = z.object({
  success: z.literal(true),
  data: z.array(UserSchema),
  meta: z.object({
    page: z.number(),
    limit: z.number(),
    total: z.number(),
    total_pages: z.number(),
  }),
});

describe("Users API Contract", () => {
  it("GET /api/users should match contract", async () => {
    const client = await authenticatedApi();
    const response = await client.get("/api/users").expect(200);

    // Validate against schema
    const result = PaginatedUsersSchema.safeParse(response.body);
    expect(result.success).toBe(true);
  });

  it("GET /api/users/:id should match contract", async () => {
    const user = await createUser();

    const client = await authenticatedApi();
    const response = await client.get(`/api/users/${user.id}`).expect(200);

    // Validate against schema
    const result = UserSchema.safeParse(response.body.data);
    expect(result.success).toBe(true);
  });
});
```

## CLI Script

```typescript
#!/usr/bin/env node
// scripts/test-gen.ts
import * as fs from "fs";
import * as path from "path";
import { program } from "commander";

program
  .name("test-gen")
  .description("Generate API test suite from routes")
  .option("-f, --framework <type>", "Framework (express|nextjs|fastify)", "express")
  .option("-s, --source <path>", "Source directory", "./src")
  .option("-o, --output <path>", "Output directory", "./tests/integration")
  .option("-t, --test-runner <type>", "Test runner (vitest|jest)", "vitest")
  .parse();

const options = program.opts();

async function main() {
  const routes = await scanRoutes(options.framework, options.source);
  const groupedRoutes = groupRoutesByResource(routes);

  if (!fs.existsSync(options.output)) {
    fs.mkdirSync(options.output, { recursive: true });
  }

  for (const [resource, resourceRoutes] of Object.entries(groupedRoutes)) {
    const content = generateTestFile(resource, resourceRoutes);
    const filePath = path.join(options.output, `${resource}.test.ts`);
    fs.writeFileSync(filePath, content);
    console.log(`Generated ${filePath}`);
  }
}

main();
```

## Best Practices

1. **Isolate tests**: Each test should be independent
2. **Clean state**: Reset database between tests
3. **Use fixtures**: Create reusable test data factories
4. **Test edge cases**: Invalid input, auth, not found
5. **Contract testing**: Validate response schemas
6. **Descriptive names**: Tests should read like documentation
7. **Fast execution**: Use transactions for database cleanup
8. **CI integration**: Run tests on every PR
