Background

Roadmap reference: ROADMAP.md > P1 > Test coverage for auth and admin

tests/test_api.py bypasses authentication entirely, meaning regressions in the JWT flow (broken token validation, missing admin guards, etc.) will not be caught by CI.

What to do

Extend tests/test_api.py (or add a new tests/test_auth.py) with the following test cases:

  1. Registration - POST /auth/register with valid payload returns 201 and a user object without the password hash.
  2. Duplicate registration - Registering the same username twice returns 409.
  3. Login success - POST /auth/login with valid credentials returns a JWT access token.
  4. Login failure - Wrong password returns 401.
  5. Protected route with valid token - A GET to an authenticated endpoint with Authorization: Bearer <token> returns 200.
  6. Protected route without token - Same endpoint without a token returns 401.
  7. Expired token - A token with exp in the past returns 401.
  8. Admin-only endpoint - A non-admin JWT receives 403; an admin JWT receives 200.

Acceptance criteria

  • All 8 test cases are implemented and green.
  • pytest --cov shows >80% branch coverage on auth.py.
  • CI pipeline runs these tests and fails the build if they regress.
