# Testing — `@contentstack/management`

## Frameworks

| Suite | Runner | Assertion / mocks | Notes |
|-------|--------|-------------------|--------|
| **Unit** | **Mocha** + `@babel/register` | **Chai**, **Sinon**, **Nock**, **axios-mock-adapter** | Entry: `test/unit/index.js`; **30s** timeout in npm script |
| **Sanity / API** | Mocha | Chai; **live HTTP** | Entry: `test/sanity-check/sanity.js`; imports **`dist/node/contentstack-management.js`** — run **`npm run build`** first |
| **TypeScript** | **Jest** + **ts-jest** | Jest mocks | `jest.config.js`; `npm run test:typescript` |

## Naming & layout

- **Unit**: `test/unit/*-test.js` (required from `test/unit/index.js`).
- **Sanity**: `test/sanity-check/api/*-test.js` (orchestrated via `sanity.js`); shared setup in `test/sanity-check/utility/testSetup.js` and helpers.
- **TS**: `test/typescript/**/*.test.ts` per Jest config.

## Credentials & env (sanity only)

- Sanity tests need env vars documented in **`test/sanity-check/utility/testSetup.js`** (`EMAIL`, `PASSWORD`, `HOST`, `ORGANIZATION`, optional OAuth/Personalize). **Do not** commit secrets or hardcode tokens in tests.
- Unit tests must **not** rely on real API keys; mock HTTP.

## Coverage

- **nyc** is used with `npm run test:unit` / `test:sanity-test`; exclusions are configured under `package.json` → `nyc`.

## Hygiene

- No committed **`only`** / **`skip`** for tests that should run in CI.
- Prefer existing **`test/unit/mock/`** and sanity **`mock/`** patterns for fixtures.
