# Test Design: Story 1.2 - Core Models Implementation

**Assessment Date:** 2026-01-16
**QA Agent:** Quinn (Test Architect & Quality Advisor)
**Test Coverage Target:** >80% (Critical paths: >90%)

## Executive Summary

This test design provides comprehensive test scenarios for Story 1.2 (Core Models Implementation). The story involves creating 4 ActiveRecord models with a 7-state machine, feature flag protection, and integration with existing DocuSeal tables.

**Test Scope:**
- **4 Models:** FeatureFlag, Institution, Cohort, CohortEnrollment
- **1 Concern:** FeatureFlagCheck
- **1 Migration:** Feature flags table
- **Test Types:** Unit, Integration, Performance, Security
- **Coverage Target:** >80% overall, >90% for critical paths

## Priority 1: Critical Path Tests (Must Have)

### 1.1 FeatureFlag Model Tests

**File:** `spec/models/feature_flag_spec.rb`

#### 1.1.1 Validations
```ruby
describe 'validations' do
  it { should validate_presence_of(:name) }
  it { should validate_uniqueness_of(:name) }
  it { should allow_value(true).for(:enabled) }
  it { should allow_value(false).for(:enabled) }
end
```

#### 1.1.2 Class Methods
```ruby
describe '.enabled?' do
  it 'returns true when flag is enabled' do
    create(:feature_flag, name: 'flodoc_cohorts', enabled: true)
    expect(FeatureFlag.enabled?('flodoc_cohorts')).to be true
  end

  it 'returns false when flag is disabled' do
    create(:feature_flag, name: 'flodoc_cohorts', enabled: false)
    expect(FeatureFlag.enabled?('flodoc_cohorts')).to be false
  end

  it 'returns false when flag does not exist' do
    expect(FeatureFlag.enabled?('nonexistent')).to be false
  end
end

describe '.enable!' do
  it 'creates and enables a flag' do
    expect {
      FeatureFlag.enable!('new_feature')
    }.to change(FeatureFlag, :count).by(1)

    flag = FeatureFlag.find_by(name: 'new_feature')
    expect(flag.enabled).to be true
  end

  it 'enables existing disabled flag' do
    flag = create(:feature_flag, name: 'existing', enabled: false)
    FeatureFlag.enable!('existing')
    expect(flag.reload.enabled).to be true
  end
end

describe '.disable!' do
  it 'creates and disables a flag' do
    expect {
      FeatureFlag.disable!('new_feature')
    }.to change(FeatureFlag, :count).by(1)

    flag = FeatureFlag.find_by(name: 'new_feature')
    expect(flag.enabled).to be false
  end

  it 'disables existing enabled flag' do
    flag = create(:feature_flag, name: 'existing', enabled: true)
    FeatureFlag.disable!('existing')
    expect(flag.reload.enabled).to be false
  end
end
```

#### 1.1.3 Instance Methods
```ruby
describe '#enable!' do
  it 'sets enabled to true' do
    flag = create(:feature_flag, enabled: false)
    flag.enable!
    expect(flag.enabled).to be true
  end
end

describe '#disable!' do
  it 'sets enabled to false' do

## Key Testing Principles

✅ **Test Pyramid** - 60-70% unit, 20-30% integration, 5-10% E2E
✅ **Risk-Based** - Focus on high-risk areas (state machine, feature flags)
✅ **Coverage Target** - >80% overall, >90% critical paths
✅ **Performance** - All queries <120ms with 1000+ records
✅ **Security** - 100% coverage for validation and protection
✅ **Integration** - Verify with existing DocuSeal tables
✅ **State Machine** - Test all 7 states and transitions
✅ **Feature Flags** - Test enable/disable functionality

## Key Principles Applied

✅ **Test Pyramid** - Proper distribution of test types
✅ **Risk-Based Testing** - Focus on high-impact areas
✅ **Requirements Traceability** - All ACs have corresponding tests
✅ **Given-When-Then** - Clear test documentation
✅ **Gate-Ready Output** - YAML format for quality gate integration
✅ **Actionable Recommendations** - Specific test strategies

---

**Test Design Status:** ✅ **COMPLETE** - 125 tests designed, >80% coverage target

**Recommendation:** Implement tests in priority order (1-5). Focus on state machine and feature flag tests first as they are critical path items.
