# Run Tests

Run project tests. Arguments: `$ARGUMENTS`

## Test Commands

### Run All Tests

```bash
pnpm test
```

### Run Single Test File

```bash
# Using relative path (from apps/core directory)
pnpm test -- test/src/modules/post/post.controller.e2e-spec.ts

# Using filename pattern
pnpm test -- --testNamePattern="PostController"
```

### Watch Mode

```bash
pnpm -C apps/core run test:watch
```

### Run Specific Test Case

```bash
# Match test name
pnpm test -- --testNamePattern="should create post"
```

## Test Types

| Suffix | Type | Description |
|--------|------|-------------|
| `.spec.ts` | Unit test | Test single function or class |
| `.e2e-spec.ts` | E2E test | Test complete HTTP request flow |

## Execution Steps

1. Analyze arguments to determine which tests to run
2. If file path specified, verify file exists first
3. Execute appropriate test command
4. Report test results

## Common Issues

### Test Timeout

Increase timeout:

```bash
pnpm test -- --testTimeout=30000
```

### Memory Issues

Tests use in-memory database. If memory issues occur:

```bash
NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=4096" pnpm test
```

### Run Only Failed Tests

```bash
pnpm test -- --reporter=verbose
```
