integration-tests

integration-tests is a cursor rule for Cursor from prest/prest. It costs 0 tokens per session (601 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for writing human-readable integration tests. Integration tests check that several parts of an application work together, often through HTTP requests and a real or test database.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding or reviewing HTTP end-to-end tests, database-specific tests, authenticated requests, table-driven cases, and tests for application behavior changes.
Why use it?
It makes each test’s scenario, expected result, and request purpose understandable. It also helps place tests in the right suite and requires behavior changes to include integration coverage.

About the project

pREST is an API service that creates REST and Model Context Protocol endpoints for an existing or new PostgreSQL database, covering database operations, custom SQL routes, authentication, access control, and read-only MCP access. Developers use it to expose PostgreSQL data without writing a separate backend. The catalogue entries provide rules, skills, and instructions for using pREST.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

integration-tests scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 52 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Integration Tests

Integration tests must be human-readable. A reader should understand scenario, expected outcome, and why each request matters without decoding URLs alone.

Document every request

  • Sequential: before each HTTP call, 1–3 comments: What / Expected outcome / Why (if non-obvious)
  • Table-driven: clear description per case (scenario + expected outcome); use in t.Run / t.Log
  • Prefer wrapping long DoRequest / DoAuthRequest across lines; stable scenario name arg

Helpers (do / don't)

Do Don't
helpers.ServerURL, QueriesServerURL, AuthServerURL, MultiClusterServerURL httptest.NewServer for standard controller routes
testutils.DoRequest / helpers.DoAuthRequest postgres.Load() or live DB outside integration/

Placement

  • Wire-compatible HTTP E2E → integration/suites/ (Postgres job owns these)
  • Engine- or stack-specific → integration/<db>/ (e.g. postgres/, timescaledb/)

MUST: every application behavior change ships with an integration test

A unit test with mocks proves a code path can be reached and returns the right value in isolation; only an integration test proves it is reached through real HTTP routing and behaves correctly end-to-end. Unit coverage (unit-tests-tdd.mdc) is necessary but not sufficient — do not consider a behavior change (controller, adapter, middleware, query-param parsing, SQL building, etc.) done without a paired integration test in integration/suites/ or integration/<db>/.

Precedent: _select's SQL-injection fix (GHSA-qvx3-q8vx-9q3c) landed with unit coverage for its own validator (sanitizeSelectField). The sibling _groupby path used a separate, weaker validator (isSafeSQLExpression) that no integration test ever exercised end-to-end — the gap went unnoticed until a dedicated audit found it. Unit tests alone did not — and structurally could not — catch a sibling code path being missed entirely; only an HTTP-level test asserting the actual response for both _select and _groupby would have. See integration/suites/controllers/crud_test.go (_groupby subquery/UNION injection cases) for the test that now guards it.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
