Integration Testing

Redis Lua Scripts: All 4 scripts tested (acquire, release, heartbeat, get_active)
Cloud KMS Signing: Mock integration with signature verification
Multi-Tenant Isolation: Cross-organization access prevention
Audit Logging: Comprehensive metadata tracking
Authentication: All endpoints require auth, proper 401 responses

Test Features

1. Factory Boy Integration

Benefits:

Clean, reusable test data
Traits for common variations
Sequence generation for unique fields
Relationships handled automatically

Example Usage:

def test_with_factory(license_factory):
    license = license_factory(
        enterprise_tier=True,  # Trait
        expired=True           # Trait
    )
    assert license.tier == 'ENTERPRISE'
    assert license.is_expired is True

Factories Available:

OrganizationFactory (traits: free_plan, enterprise_plan, inactive)
UserFactory (traits: admin_role, owner_role, guest_role)
LicenseFactory (traits: basic_tier, enterprise_tier, expired, inactive)
LicenseSessionFactory (traits: stale, ended, long_running)
AuditLogFactory (traits: heartbeat, release, acquisition_failed)

2. Redis Mocking with FakeRedis

Features:

In-memory Redis simulation
Lua script execution support
Isolated state per test
TTL and expiration support
Set operations (SADD, SREM, SISMEMBER)

Auto-Patching: All tests automatically use FakeRedis unless marked with @pytest.mark.no_redis_patch

Example:

def test_redis_example(mock_redis):
    # Redis operations work in-memory
    mock_redis.set('key', 'value')
    assert mock_redis.get('key') == b'value'

    # Lua scripts preloaded
    result = mock_redis.evalsha(
        mock_redis.script_shas['acquire'],
        1, 'tenant-id', 'session-id', 10
    )
    assert result == 1

3. Cloud KMS Mocking

Features:

Mock asymmetric signing
CRC32C checksum simulation
Configurable responses
Failure scenarios

Auto-Patching: All tests automatically use mock KMS unless marked with @pytest.mark.no_kms_patch

Example:

def test_kms_example(mock_kms_client):
    # KMS automatically mocked
    # Returns: b'fake_signature_bytes_1234567890'

    # Verify KMS was called
    assert mock_kms_client.asymmetric_sign.called

4. Multi-Tenant Isolation

Test Coverage:

Users can only access own organization's resources
License acquisition across tenants blocked
Heartbeat across tenants blocked
Release across tenants blocked
django-multitenant row-level security verified

Example:

def test_tenant_isolation(api_client, license, user_org2, organization_2):
    set_current_tenant(organization_2)
    api_client.force_authenticate(user=user_org2)

    # Try to acquire license from different org
    response = api_client.post('/api/v1/licenses/acquire/', {
        'license_key': license.key_string  # From org1
    })

    assert response.status_code == 400  # Blocked by tenant isolation

5. Graceful Degradation Testing

Redis Offline:

Acquire: Returns 503 Service Unavailable
Heartbeat: Returns 503 Service Unavailable
Release: Returns 503 (should degrade to 200 + DB update only)

KMS Offline:

Acquire: Continues without signature (signature=None)
Non-critical failure handled gracefully

Example:

@pytest.mark.no_redis_patch
def test_redis_offline(authenticated_client, license, redis_unavailable):
    with patch('api.v1.views.license.redis_client', redis_unavailable):
        response = authenticated_client.post('/api/v1/licenses/acquire/', {
            'license_key': license.key_string,
            'hardware_id': 'test'
        })

    assert response.status_code == 503
    assert 'unavailable' in response.data['error'].lower()

Known Issues & Recommendations

1. Model Field Naming Mismatch

Issue: License model uses key_string field but serializers reference license_key.

Impact:

Serializer field mapping inconsistency
Tests use key_string to match actual model
API may have issues if serializer expects license_key

Recommendation: Rename License model field from key_string to license_key for consistency:

# Before
key_string = models.CharField(max_length=255, unique=True)

# After
license_key = models.CharField(max_length=255, unique=True)

Then create migration:

python manage.py makemigrations --name rename_key_string_to_license_key
python manage.py migrate

2. Redis Graceful Degradation

Current Behavior: All endpoints return 503 when Redis is offline.

Recommendation: Release endpoint should degrade gracefully:

Update database session.ended_at
Return 200 OK with warning
Log Redis failure
Continue without Redis seat release

Benefits:

Better user experience
Critical operation (session cleanup) still succeeds
Non-critical operation (seat count) handled async

Implementation:

# In LicenseReleaseView.delete()
try:
    # Try Redis release
    redis_result = release_seat_via_redis()
except RedisError:
    logger.warning("Redis offline, continuing with DB-only release")
    redis_result = None

# Always update database
session.ended_at = timezone.now()
session.save()

# Return success even if Redis failed
return Response({...}, status=200)

3. Organization max_seats vs License max_concurrent_seats

Issue: Confusion between two similar fields:

Organization.max_seats - Org-level seat limit
License.max_concurrent_seats - (NOT FOUND in current model)

Current Implementation:

Organization has max_seats field
License does NOT have max_concurrent_seats field
Tests and views reference org.max_seats

Recommendation: Clarify in documentation which model controls seat limits. Current implementation uses organization-level seat control, which is correct for multi-license scenarios.

4. Audit Log Volume for Heartbeat

Current: Heartbeat audit logging is commented out (lines 456-464 in views.py)

Reason: Heartbeat is high-frequency (every 5 minutes), would create excessive logs

Recommendation: Keep heartbeat audit logging disabled in production, but consider:

Aggregate metrics instead (e.g., "100 heartbeats in last hour")
Sample-based logging (e.g., log 1% of heartbeats)
Separate table for high-frequency events

5. Test Database Configuration

Current: Tests likely using SQLite in-memory database

Recommendation for CI/CD: Use PostgreSQL for tests to match production:

# settings.py or settings_test.py
if os.environ.get('GITHUB_ACTIONS'):
    DATABASES = {
        'default': {
            'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
            'NAME': 'test_db',
            'USER': 'postgres',
            'PASSWORD': 'postgres',
            'HOST': 'localhost',
            'PORT': '5432',
        }
    }
