Context

The existing tests/test_api.py bypasses authentication entirely. There are no tests covering the JWT flow, which is a critical security surface.

Task

Add tests to tests/test_api.py (or a new tests/test_auth.py) that cover:

  • User registration: successful registration, duplicate username/email rejection
  • Login: valid credentials return a JWT, invalid credentials return 401
  • Protected route access: requests without a token return 401, valid token allows access
  • Token expiry: expired tokens are rejected
  • Admin-only endpoints: non-admin token returns 403, admin token allows access

Acceptance Criteria

  • All listed scenarios have at least one test case
  • Tests run successfully with pytest
  • Tests do not require a live database (use fixtures or an in-memory SQLite if possible)
  • CI passes with the new tests

Already implemented on main. tests/test_auth.py covers all scenarios: registration (first user admin, subsequent user, duplicate email), login (valid/invalid credentials), protected routes (valid token, missing token, expired token, refresh-as-access), token refresh (valid/invalid/access-as-refresh), and admin endpoints (list users, change role, cannot change own role, non-admin 403). Uses mocked DB. All acceptance criteria met. Closing.
