Test Coverage

Kind 0 - Profile Metadata

testProfileMetadata(t, ctx, db, alice)

Creates profile with name, about, picture
Verifies NostrUser node created
Checks profile fields populated correctly

Kind 3 - Contact List (Initial)

testContactListInitial(t, ctx, db, alice, bob, charlie)

Alice follows Bob and Charlie
Verifies 2 FOLLOWS relationships created
Checks event traceability

Kind 3 - Contact List (Update - Add)

testContactListUpdate(t, ctx, db, alice, bob, charlie, dave)

Alice adds Dave (now: Bob, Charlie, Dave)
Verifies diff algorithm adds only Dave
Checks old event marked as superseded

Kind 3 - Contact List (Update - Remove)

testContactListRemove(t, ctx, db, alice, bob, charlie, dave)

Alice unfollows Charlie (now: Bob, Dave)
Verifies Charlie's relationship removed
Checks others unchanged

Kind 3 - Older Event Rejected

testContactListOlderRejected(t, ctx, db, alice, bob)

Attempts to save old contact list
Verifies rejection (follows unchanged)
Tests replaceable event semantics

Kind 10000 - Mute List

testMuteList(t, ctx, db, alice, eve)

Alice mutes Eve
Verifies MUTES relationship created
Checks mute list query

Kind 1984 - Reports

testReports(t, ctx, db, alice, bob, eve)

Alice reports Eve for "spam"
Bob reports Eve for "illegal"
Verifies 2 REPORTS relationships
Checks report types correct
Tests accumulative nature (not replaceable)

Final Graph Verification

verifyFinalGraphState(t, ctx, db, alice, bob, charlie, dave, eve)

Verifies complete graph state
Checks all relationships have event traceability
Validates no orphaned relationships

Test Utilities

Keypair Generation

generateTestKeypair(t, name) testKeypair

Generates test keypairs using p8k
Returns pubkey and signer for signing events

Query Helpers

queryFollows(t, ctx, db, pubkey) []string
queryMutes(t, ctx, db, pubkey) []string
queryReports(t, ctx, db, pubkey) []reportInfo

Query active relationships (filters superseded events)
Return pubkeys or report info
Helper for test assertions

Diff Testing

diffStringSlices(old, new) (added, removed []string)

Computes set difference
Returns added and removed elements
Core algorithm used in social processor

P-Tag Extraction

extractPTags(ev) []string

Extracts unique pubkeys from p-tags
Validates pubkey length
Deduplicates entries

Test Data Flow

1. Generate test keypairs (Alice, Bob, Charlie, Dave, Eve)
   └─> testKeypair struct with pubkey + signer

2. Create Kind 0 event (Alice's profile)
   └─> Sign with Alice's signer
   └─> SaveEvent()
   └─> Query NostrUser node
   └─> Assert: name="Alice", about="Test user"

3. Create Kind 3 event (Alice follows Bob, Charlie)
   └─> Sign with Alice's signer
   └─> SaveEvent()
   └─> Query FOLLOWS relationships
   └─> Assert: 2 relationships, correct targets

4. Update Kind 3 event (Alice adds Dave)
   └─> Newer timestamp
   └─> Sign and SaveEvent()
   └─> Query FOLLOWS relationships
   └─> Assert: 3 relationships (Bob, Charlie, Dave)
   └─> Query ProcessedSocialEvent
   └─> Assert: old event superseded

5. Update Kind 3 event (Alice unfollows Charlie)
   └─> Even newer timestamp
   └─> Sign and SaveEvent()
   └─> Query FOLLOWS relationships
   └─> Assert: 2 relationships (Bob, Dave only)

6. Create Kind 10000 event (Alice mutes Eve)
   └─> Sign and SaveEvent()
   └─> Query MUTES relationships
   └─> Assert: 1 relationship to Eve

7. Create Kind 1984 events (Reports against Eve)
   └─> Alice reports for "spam"
   └─> Bob reports for "illegal"
   └─> Sign and SaveEvent() for both
   └─> Query REPORTS relationships
   └─> Assert: 2 reports with correct types

8. Final verification
   └─> Query all relationship types
   └─> Assert: complete graph state correct
   └─> Check: all relationships have created_by_event

Debugging

Enable Debug Logging

Database logger set to "debug" in tests, showing all Cypher queries:

[DEBUG] Executing Cypher: MATCH (u:NostrUser {pubkey: $pubkey})...
[DEBUG] Query returned 1 result

Check Graph State

// Count nodes by label
MATCH (n) RETURN labels(n), count(*)

// Count relationships by type
MATCH ()-[r]->() RETURN type(r), count(*)

// Find relationships without traceability
MATCH ()-[r:FOLLOWS|MUTES|REPORTS]->()

RETURN r

Inspect Superseded Events

MATCH (evt:ProcessedSocialEvent)
WHERE evt.superseded_by IS NOT NULL
RETURN evt

Known Limitations

No concurrent update tests: Tests run sequentially
No large list tests: Max tested is a few follows
No error injection: Network failures, transaction timeouts not tested
No encrypted tag support: Kind 10000 encrypted tags not tested
No event deletion: Kind 5 not implemented yet

Future Enhancements

[ ] Test concurrent contact list updates from same user
[ ] Test very large follow lists (1000+ users)
[ ] Test encrypted mute lists (NIP-59)
[ ] Test event deletion (kind 5) and relationship cleanup
[ ] Test malformed events and error handling
[ ] Test Neo4j connection failures and retries
[ ] Test transaction rollbacks
[ ] Load testing with realistic event streams
[ ] Fuzz testing for edge cases

CI/CD Integration

Tests skip gracefully if Neo4j not available:

if os.Getenv("ORLY_NEO4J_URI") == "" {
    t.Skip("Skipping Neo4j test: ORLY_NEO4J_URI not set")
}

For CI with Neo4j:

services:
  neo4j:
    image: neo4j:5.15
    ports:
      - 7687:7687
    env:
      NEO4J_AUTH: neo4j/test

test:
  script:
    - export ORLY_NEO4J_URI="bolt://neo4j:7687"
    - export ORLY_NEO4J_USER="neo4j"
    - export ORLY_NEO4J_PASSWORD="test"
    - go test ./pkg/neo4j/...

Summary

✅ Complete test coverage for social event processing ✅ Comprehensive documentation (TESTING.md) ✅ Integration tests with real Neo4j instance ✅ Unit tests for helper functions ✅ Benchmarks for performance monitoring ✅ Neo4j Browser queries for visual verification ✅ CI/CD ready (skips if Neo4j not available) ✅ Debug support with detailed logging ✅ Clear test output with checkmarks and summaries

The test suite validates that the event-driven vertex management system works correctly for all three social event types (follows, mutes, reports) with full event traceability and diff-based updates.
