Overview
The QA team is responsible for comprehensive testing of all 7 KODA applications to ensure quality, security, and performance standards are met before each release.
Testing Scope
- Functional testing (all features and user flows)
- Integration testing (API and inter-application)
- Security testing (SAST/DAST, penetration testing)
- Performance testing (load and stress testing)
- Usability and accessibility testing
- Cross-browser and cross-device testing
- Production validation and smoke testing
Testing Tools
- API Testing: Postman/Newman
- Web Automation: Selenium/Cypress
- Mobile Automation: Appium
- Security: OWASP ZAP, Burp Suite
- Performance: Apache Bench, K6, JMeter
- Test Management: TestRail
Phase 1 - Core Functionality Testing
Comprehensive testing of all 7 KODA applications covering functional, integration, and security aspects.
Milestone 1: Backend API Testing (M1)
Backend API Testing Suite (64H)
QA-M1-001
16H
Critical Path
API Endpoints Testing - Authentication & User Management
Authentication Endpoints:
- Test user registration API (valid/invalid data, duplicate phone numbers)
- Test login API (valid credentials, invalid credentials, locked accounts)
- Test logout API
- Test token refresh API
- Test password reset flow
- Verify multi-tenant API key validation
- Test branch selection API
User Profile APIs:
- Test get user profile API
- Test update user profile API (all fields, partial updates)
- Test profile photo upload API
- Test user search API (by name, phone, email)
- Test user listing API with pagination and filters
Test Cases:
- Positive test cases (happy path)
- Negative test cases (invalid inputs, missing required fields)
- Boundary test cases (max length fields, special characters)
- Security test cases (SQL injection attempts, XSS attempts)
Tools:
- Postman/Newman for API testing
- Create automated test collection
QA-M1-002
12H
Critical Path
API Endpoints Testing - Phone Management & Verification
Phone Management APIs:
- Test add phone number API
- Test set primary phone API (for calls, for messages)
- Test delete phone number API
- Test get user phones API
- Verify phone number validation (format, duplicates)
OTP Verification APIs:
- Test send OTP API
- Test verify OTP API (valid OTP, invalid OTP, expired OTP)
- Test OTP rate limiting
- Test OTP resend functionality
- Verify OTP expiry time
Multi-Tenant Phone Testing:
- Test phone verification sync between main and sub-app databases
- Verify global_phone_id linking
- Test phone deduplication across sub-apps
QA-M1-003
14H
Critical Path
API Endpoints Testing - Multi-Tenant Architecture
Multi-Tenant Testing:
- Test API key validation middleware
- Test sub-application creation API
- Test database connection switching
- Test user deduplication across sub-apps
- Test identity verification API (Core Admin only)
- Test user-to-application assignment API
Data Isolation Testing:
- Verify data isolation between sub-apps
- Test that sub-app A cannot access sub-app B data
- Verify global_id linking works correctly
- Test activity log includes correct app_id and api_key_id
- Test client transactions include correct app_id
Performance Testing:
- Verify API key cache performance (<2ms validation)
- Test database connection pooling
- Verify sub-app database queries only access correct database
QA-M1-004
12H
High Priority
API Endpoints Testing - Permissions System
Permission APIs:
- Test get all permissions API
- Test get permission categories API
- Test assign permission category to user API
- Test revoke permission category API
- Test check permission API
Authorization Testing:
- Verify users with permission can access protected endpoints
- Verify users without permission receive 403 Forbidden
- Test permission inheritance (category-based)
- Test granular permissions (view_own, view_all, create, update, delete)
- Test Core Admin override permissions
Edge Cases:
- Test permission check with deleted user
- Test permission check with invalid permission name
- Test concurrent permission assignments

- Test client transaction logging
Backup & Recovery:
- Test database backup procedure
- Test database restoration
- Verify data integrity after restoration
