Test MongoDB Repository

Write Vitest tests for MongoDB repository implementations. Requires test infrastructure setup with mongodb-memory-server.

Quick Reference

Location: tests/repositories/{entity-name}.mongodb.repository.test.ts Run tests: pnpm test -- tests/repositories/{entity-name}.mongodb.repository.test.ts

Prerequisites

1. Install Dependencies

bash
pnpm add -D mongodb-memory-server

2. Configure Vitest

Update vitest.config.ts:

typescript
export default defineConfig({
  test: {
    include: ["tests/**/*.test.ts"],
    globalSetup: ["./tests/config/mongodb.global.ts"],
    setupFiles: ["./tests/config/mongodb.setup.ts"],
    pool: "forks", // Avoid database conflicts
    // ... other config
  },
});

3. Create Test Config Files

You need two configuration files. See REFERENCE.md for complete files:

  • tests/config/mongodb.global.ts - Starts/stops MongoDB Memory Server
  • tests/config/mongodb.setup.ts - Mocks database connection, provides test helpers

Test Structure

typescript
import {
  describe,
  it,
  expect,
  beforeEach,
  afterEach,
  beforeAll,
  afterAll,
} from "vitest";
import { MongoDb{Entity}Repository } from "@/repositories/mongodb/{entity-name}.mongodb.repository";
import type { MongoClient, Db } from "mongodb";
import type {
  Create{Entity}Type,
  Update{Entity}Type,
  {Entity}QueryParamsType,
} from "@/schemas/{entity-name}.schema";

describe("MongoDb{Entity}Repository", () => {
  let repository: MongoDb{Entity}Repository;
  let testClient: MongoClient;
  let testDb: Db;
  const testUserId = "test-user-123";

  beforeAll(async () => {
    // Global helper from mongodb.setup.ts
    const { db, client } = await setupTestDatabase();
    testDb = db;
    testClient = client;
  });

  afterAll(async () => {
    await cleanupTestDatabase(testClient);
  });

  beforeEach(async () => {
    repository = new MongoDb{Entity}Repository();
    await repository.clear();
  });

  afterEach(async () => {
    await repository.clear();
  });

  // Test cases...
});

Test Cases

CRUD Operations

Same patterns as MockDB tests. See test-mockdb-repository skill for:

  • create
  • findById
  • findAll (with filtering, pagination, sorting)
  • update
  • remove

MongoDB-Specific: Data Validation

typescript
describe("data validation", () => {
  it("validates data using Zod schema when mapping from document", async () => {
    const data: Create{Entity}Type = { content: "Valid content" };
    const result = await repository.create(data, testUserId);

    // Zod validation ensures proper types
    expect(result.id).toBeTruthy();
    expect(result.createdAt).toBeInstanceOf(Date);
    expect(result.updatedAt).toBeInstanceOf(Date);
  });
});

MongoDB-Specific: Database Indexes

typescript
describe("database indexes", () => {
  it("creates proper indexes for performance", async () => {
    // Create entity to trigger collection initialization
    await repository.create({ content: "Test" }, testUserId);
    const stats = await repository.getStats();

    expect(stats.indexes).toContain("_id_");
    expect(stats.indexes).toContain("{entities}_createdBy");
    expect(stats.indexes).toContain("{entities}_createdAt_desc");
    expect(stats.indexes).toContain("{entities}_{field}_text");
  });
});

MongoDB-Specific: Helper Methods

typescript
describe("helper methods", () => {
  beforeEach(async () => {
    await repository.create({ content: "Test 1" }, testUserId);
    await repository.create({ content: "Test 2" }, testUserId);
  });

  it("clears all entities", async () => {
    await repository.clear();
    const result = await repository.findAll({});
    expect(result.data).toHaveLength(0);
  });

  it("returns collection stats", async () => {
    const stats = await repository.getStats();
    expect(stats.count).toBe(2);
    expect(stats.indexes).toEqual(expect.any(Array));
  });
});

What to Test

Category Test Cases
CRUD Same as MockDB (create, findById, findAll, update, remove)
Validation Zod schema validation when reading from DB
Indexes Proper indexes created for performance
Helpers clear() and getStats() work correctly
ObjectId Invalid IDs return null (not throw)

Test Infrastructure Explained

vitest.config.ts

Setting Purpose
globalSetup Runs once before all tests - starts MongoDB Memory Server
setupFiles Runs before each test file - sets up mocks and helpers
pool: "forks" Runs tests in separate processes to avoid database conflicts

mongodb.global.ts

  • Starts mongodb-memory-server once for entire test run
  • Stores URI and database name in process.env
  • Tears down when all tests complete

mongodb.setup.ts

  • Mocks @/config/mongodb.setup module
  • Provides global setupTestDatabase() and cleanupTestDatabase() helpers
  • Redirects repository database calls to the in-memory server

Complete Example

See REFERENCE.md for:

  • Complete MongoDB repository test file
  • vitest.config.ts configuration
  • tests/config/mongodb.global.ts
  • tests/config/mongodb.setup.ts

What NOT to Do

  • Do NOT forget to set up the test infrastructure files
  • Do NOT run MongoDB tests in parallel (use pool: "forks")
  • Do NOT forget beforeAll/afterAll for database setup/teardown
  • Do NOT forget to call repository.clear() in beforeEach/afterEach
  • Do NOT skip index tests - they verify performance optimization
