testing

A testing guide for DBHub, a server that lets compatible AI tools connect to databases. It covers unit tests, integration tests that use Docker database containers, and database-specific checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run all or selected tests, distinguish unit tests from integration tests, troubleshoot container problems, and add or verify DBHub tests.
Why use it?
It explains which commands to run, how tests are grouped, and which failures may require Docker or other setup.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

testing 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 156 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Testing Skill

This skill helps you run, write, and troubleshoot tests in the DBHub project.

Test Commands

pnpm test              # Run all tests (unit + integration)
pnpm test:unit         # Unit tests only (no Docker needed)
pnpm test:watch        # Interactive watch mode
pnpm test:integration  # Integration tests only (requires Docker)

Run a specific test file:

pnpm test src/connectors/__tests__/postgres.integration.test.ts
pnpm test src/utils/__tests__/allowed-keywords.test.ts

Run tests matching a name pattern:

pnpm test -- --testNamePattern="PostgreSQL"

Verbose output for debugging:

pnpm test:integration --reporter=verbose

Test Architecture

Vitest is configured with two projects in vitest.config.ts:

  • unit: All *.test.ts files excluding *integration* in the filename
  • integration: Only *integration*.test.ts files

This means the naming convention matters — integration tests MUST have integration in their filename to be correctly categorized.

Test File Locations

Unit tests (~20 files, no Docker needed):

  • src/utils/__tests__/ — Utility function tests (SQL parsing, DSN obfuscation, SSH config, allowed keywords, identifier quoting, parameter mapping, row limiting, safe URL, config watcher, AWS RDS signer)
  • src/tools/__tests__/ — Tool handler tests (execute-sql, search-objects, custom-tool-handler)
  • src/config/__tests__/ — Configuration tests (env parsing, TOML loading)
  • src/connectors/__tests__/ — Connector unit tests (dsn-parser, manager)
  • src/requests/__tests__/ — Request store tests

Integration tests (~11 files, Docker required):

  • src/connectors/__tests__/postgres.integration.test.ts
  • src/connectors/__tests__/mysql.integration.test.ts
  • src/connectors/__tests__/mariadb.integration.test.ts
  • src/connectors/__tests__/sqlserver.integration.test.ts
  • src/connectors/__tests__/sqlite.integration.test.ts
  • src/connectors/__tests__/postgres-ssh.integration.test.ts
  • src/connectors/__tests__/multi-sqlite-sources.integration.test.ts
  • src/__tests__/json-rpc-integration.test.ts
  • src/api/__tests__/sources.integration.test.ts
  • src/api/__tests__/requests.integration.test.ts
  • src/config/__tests__/ssh-config-integration.test.ts

What this file has done since we first saw 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.

testing is a skill published in the GitHub repository bytebase/dbhub (3,431 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 67 tokens to every session and 1,531 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
