+# KMS API - Failing Tests Analysis & Resolution Prompt
+
+## Context
+I have a Go-based Key Management Service (KMS) API with comprehensive end-to-end tests. The server is running successfully on port 8081, but several tests are failing due to database connectivity issues and some implementation gaps. I need help resolving these failing tests.
+
+## Current Test Results
+**Total Tests**: 22  
+**Passing**: 17  
+**Failing**: 6  
+
+## Failing Tests Analysis
+
+### 1. Database Connectivity Issues (Primary Problem)
+```
+[FAIL] Readiness Check (Expected: 200, Got: 503)
+Response: {"status":"not ready","timestamp":"2025-08-22T17:17:03Z","checks":{"database":"unhealthy: sql: database is closed"}}
+
+[FAIL] List applications with auth (Expected: 200, Got: 500)
+Response: {"error":"Internal Server Error","message":"Failed to list applications"}
+
+[FAIL] List applications with pagination (Expected: 200, Got: 500)
+Response: {"error":"Internal Server Error","message":"Failed to list applications"}
+
+[FAIL] Create application (Expected: 201, Got: 500)
+Response: {"error":"Internal Server Error","message":"Failed to create application"}
+
+[FAIL] Missing content-type (Expected: 400, Got: 500)
+Response: {"error":"Internal Server Error","message":"Failed to create application"}
+```
+
+**Root Cause**: The server logs show `"sql: database is closed"` errors. The PostgreSQL database is not running or not properly connected.
+
+### 2. Edge Case Handling
+```
+[FAIL] Delete non-existent token (Expected: 500, Got: 204)
+```
+**Issue**: The delete token endpoint returns 204 (success) even for non-existent tokens, but the test expects 500 (error).
+
+## What Needs to be Completed
+
+### Priority 1: Database Setup & Connection
+1. **Start PostgreSQL Database**
+   - Either start a local PostgreSQL instance
+   - Or set up Docker container with PostgreSQL
+   - Or configure the application to use an in-memory/mock database for testing
+
+2. **Database Configuration**
+   - Verify database connection string in configuration
+   - Ensure database migrations run successfully
+   - Check that database tables are created properly
+
+3. **Connection Pool Management**
+   - Fix the "database is closed" error
+   - Ensure proper database connection lifecycle management
+   - Verify connection pool settings
+
+### Priority 2: Application Service Implementation
+The application CRUD operations are failing, which suggests:
+1. **Repository Layer**: Verify PostgreSQL repository implementations work correctly
+2. **Service Layer**: Ensure application service properly handles database operations
+3. **Error Handling**: Improve error responses for database connectivity issues
+
+### Priority 3: Token Service Edge Cases
+1. **Delete Token Validation**: The delete token endpoint should return appropriate error codes for non-existent tokens
+2. **Error Response Consistency**: Ensure consistent error handling across all endpoints
+
+## Technical Details
+
+### Server Configuration
+- **Server Port**: 8081 (8080 was in use)
+- **Database**: PostgreSQL (currently not connected)
+- **Framework**: Gin (Go web framework)
+- **Architecture**: Clean architecture with repositories, services, and handlers
+
+### Key Files to Examine
+- `cmd/server/main.go` - Server startup and database initialization
+- `internal/database/postgres.go` - Database connection management
+- `internal/services/application_service.go` - Application CRUD operations
+- `internal/services/token_service.go` - Token management
+- `docker-compose.yml` - Database container configuration
+- `migrations/001_initial_schema.up.sql` - Database schema
+
+### Current Working State
+✅ **Working Endpoints**:
+- Health check (basic)
+- Authentication (login, verify, renew)
+- Token operations (create, list, delete - when not requiring complex validation)
+- Error handling for malformed JSON
+- API documentation
+
+❌ **Failing Endpoints**:
+- Readiness check (database health)
+- Application CRUD operations
+- Some edge case validations
+
+## Success Criteria
+After resolution, all 22 tests should pass:
+1. Database connectivity restored (readiness check returns 200)
+2. Application CRUD operations working (create, read, update, delete, list)
+3. Proper error handling for edge cases
+4. All endpoints returning expected HTTP status codes
+
+## How to Test
+Run the E2E test script to verify fixes:
+```bash
+BASE_URL=http://localhost:8081 ./test/e2e_test.sh
+```
+
+The test script provides detailed output showing exactly which endpoints are failing and what responses they're returning versus what's expected.
+
+## Additional Context
+- The server starts successfully and handles HTTP requests
+- Authentication middleware is working correctly
+- The issue appears to be primarily database-related
+- Some service implementations may have placeholder code that needs completion
+- The test suite is comprehensive and will clearly show when issues are resolved

+
+```
+cmd/server/          - Application entry point
+internal/
+  ├── domain/        - Domain models and business logic
+  ├── repository/    - Data access interfaces and implementations
+  ├── services/      - Business logic layer
+  ├── handlers/      - HTTP request handlers
+  ├── middleware/    - HTTP middleware components
+  ├── config/        - Configuration management
+  └── database/      - Database connection and migrations
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Docker and Docker Compose
+- Go 1.21+ (for local development)
+
+### Running with Docker Compose
+
+1. **Start the services:**
+```bash
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+This starts:
+- PostgreSQL database on port 5432
+- API service on port 8080
+- Nginx proxy on port 80
+- Metrics endpoint on port 9090
+
+2. **Check service health:**
+```bash
+curl http://localhost/health
+```
+
+3. **View API documentation:**
+```bash
+curl http://localhost/api/docs
+```
+
+### Configuration
+
+The service is configured via environment variables. Key settings:
+
+```env
+# Database
+DB_HOST=localhost
+DB_PORT=5432
+DB_NAME=kms
+DB_USER=postgres
+DB_PASSWORD=postgres
+
+# Server
+SERVER_HOST=0.0.0.0
+SERVER_PORT=8080
+
+# Authentication
+AUTH_PROVIDER=header
+AUTH_HEADER_USER_EMAIL=X-User-Email
+
+# Security
+RATE_LIMIT_ENABLED=true
+RATE_LIMIT_RPS=100
+RATE_LIMIT_BURST=200
+```
+
+## API Usage
+
+### Authentication
+
+All protected endpoints require the `X-User-Email` header when using the HeaderAuthenticationProvider:
+
+```bash
+curl -H "X-User-Email: admin@example.com" \
+     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+     http://localhost/api/applications
+```
+
+### Creating an Application
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost/api/applications \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-User-Email: admin@example.com" \
+  -d '{
+    "app_id": "com.mycompany.api",
+    "app_link": "https://api.mycompany.com",
+    "type": ["static", "user"],
+    "callback_url": "https://api.mycompany.com/callback",
+    "token_renewal_duration": "168h",
+    "max_token_duration": "720h",
+    "owner": {
+      "type": "team",
+      "name": "API Team",
+      "owner": "api-team@mycompany.com"
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+### Creating a Static Token
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost/api/applications/com.mycompany.api/tokens \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-User-Email: admin@example.com" \
+  -d '{
+    "owner": {
+      "type": "individual",
+      "name": "Service Account",
+      "owner": "service@mycompany.com"
+    },
+    "permissions": ["repo.read", "repo.write"]
+  }'
+```
+
+### Token Verification
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost/api/verify \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "app_id": "com.mycompany.api",
+    "type": "static",
+    "token": "your-static-token-here",
+    "permissions": ["repo.read"]
+  }'
+```
+
+## Permission Scopes
+
+The service includes a hierarchical permission system:
+
+### System Permissions
+- `internal` - Full access to internal system operations
+- `internal.admin` - Administrative access to internal system
+
+### Application Management
+- `app.read` - Read application information
+- `app.write` - Create and update applications
+- `app.delete` - Delete applications
+
+### Token Management
+- `token.read` - Read token information
+- `token.create` - Create new tokens
+- `token.revoke` - Revoke existing tokens
+
+### Repository Access (Example)
+- `repo.read` - Read repository data
+- `repo.write` - Write to repositories
+- `repo.admin` - Administrative access to repositories
+
+## Development
+
+### Local Development
+
+1. **Install dependencies:**
+```bash
+go mod download
+```
+
+2. **Run database migrations:**
+```bash
+# Using Docker for PostgreSQL
+docker run --name kms-postgres -e POSTGRES_DB=kms -e POSTGRES_USER=postgres -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres -p 5432:5432 -d postgres:15-alpine
+```
+
+3. **Run the service:**
+```bash
+go run cmd/server/main.go
+```
+
+### Testing
+
+The service includes comprehensive logging and can be tested at different user levels:
+
+- **Port 80**: Regular user (`test@example.com`)
+- **Port 8081**: Admin user (`admin@example.com`)
+- **Port 8082**: Limited user (`limited@example.com`)
+
+### Building with distrobox
+
+If you have distrobox available:
+
+```bash
+distrobox create --name golang-dev --image golang:1.21-alpine
+distrobox enter golang-dev
+cd /path/to/project
+go build -o api-key-service ./cmd/server
+```
+
+## Security Features
+
+- **Rate Limiting**: Configurable per-endpoint rate limits
+- **Security Headers**: Comprehensive security headers on all responses
+- **CORS**: Configurable Cross-Origin Resource Sharing
+- **Token Security**: Secure token generation and validation
+- **Permission Validation**: Hierarchical permission checking
+- **Audit Logging**: All operations logged with user attribution
+- **Input Validation**: Request validation with detailed error messages
+
+## Monitoring
+
+### Health Checks
+
+- `GET /health` - Basic health check
+- `GET /ready` - Readiness check with database connectivity
+
+### Metrics
+
+- `GET /metrics` - Prometheus-style metrics (when enabled)
+
+### Logging
+
+Structured JSON logging with configurable levels:
+- Request/response logging
+- Error tracking with stack traces
+- Performance metrics
+- Security events
+
+## Database Schema
+
+The service uses PostgreSQL with the following key tables:
+
+- `applications` - Application definitions
+- `static_tokens` - Static API tokens
+- `available_permissions` - Permission catalog
+- `granted_permissions` - Token-permission relationships
+
+Migrations are automatically applied on startup.
+
+## Production Considerations
+
+1. **Security**:
+   - Change default HMAC keys
+   - Use HTTPS in production
+   - Configure proper CORS origins
+   - Set up proper authentication provider
+
+2. **Performance**:
+   - Tune database connection pools
+   - Configure appropriate rate limits
+   - Set up load balancing
+   - Monitor metrics and logs
+
+3. **High Availability**:
+   - Run multiple service instances
+   - Use database clustering
+   - Implement health check monitoring
+   - Set up proper backup procedures
+
+## API Documentation
+
+Comprehensive API documentation is available in [`docs/API.md`](docs/API.md), including:
+
+- Complete endpoint reference
+- Request/response examples
+- Error handling
+- Authentication flows
+- Rate limiting details
+- Security considerations
+
+## Architecture Decisions
+
+- **Interface-based Design**: All dependencies are injected as interfaces for easy testing and replacement
+- **Clean Architecture**: Clear separation between domain, service, and infrastructure layers
+- **Security First**: Built with security considerations from the ground up
+- **Scalability**: Designed to handle millions of concurrent requests
+- **Observability**: Comprehensive logging, metrics, and health checks
+- **Configuration**: Environment-based configuration with sensible defaults
+
+## Contributing
+
+The codebase follows Go best practices and clean architecture principles. Key patterns:
+
+- Repository pattern for data access
+- Service layer for business logic
+- Middleware for cross-cutting concerns
+- Dependency injection throughout
+- Comprehensive error handling
+- Structured logging
+

+
+## Rate Limiting
+
+The API implements rate limiting with the following limits:
+
+- **General API endpoints**: 100 requests per minute with burst of 20
+- **Authentication endpoints** (`/login`, `/verify`, `/renew`): 10 requests per minute with burst of 5
+
+Rate limit headers are included in responses:
+- `X-RateLimit-Limit`: Request limit per window
+- `X-RateLimit-Remaining`: Remaining requests in current window
+- `X-RateLimit-Reset`: Unix timestamp when the window resets
+
+When rate limited:
+```json
+{
+  "error": "Rate limit exceeded",
+  "message": "Too many requests. Please try again later."
+}
+```
+
+## Testing Endpoints
+
+For testing purposes, different user scenarios are available through different ports:
+
+- **Port 80**: Regular user (`test@example.com`)
+- **Port 8081**: Admin user (`admin@example.com`) with higher rate limits
+- **Port 8082**: Limited user (`limited@example.com`) with lower rate limits
+
+## Example Workflows
+
+### Creating an Application and Static Token
+
+1. **Create Application:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost/api/applications \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-User-Email: admin@example.com" \
+  -d '{
+    "app_id": "com.mycompany.api",
+    "app_link": "https://api.mycompany.com",
+    "type": ["static", "user"],
+    "callback_url": "https://api.mycompany.com/callback",
+    "token_renewal_duration": "168h",
+    "max_token_duration": "720h",
+    "owner": {
+      "type": "team",
+      "name": "API Team",
+      "owner": "api-team@mycompany.com"
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+2. **Create Static Token:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost/api/applications/com.mycompany.api/tokens \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-User-Email: admin@example.com" \
+  -d '{
+    "owner": {
+      "type": "individual",
+      "name": "Service Account",
+      "owner": "service@mycompany.com"
+    },
+    "permissions": ["repo.read", "repo.write"]
+  }'
+```
+
+3. **Verify Token:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost/api/verify \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "app_id": "com.mycompany.api",
+    "type": "static",
+    "token": "static-token-abc123xyz789",
+    "permissions": ["repo.read"]
+  }'
+```
+
+### User Authentication Flow
+
+1. **Initiate Login:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost/api/login \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-User-Email: user@example.com" \
+  -d '{
+    "app_id": "com.mycompany.api",
+    "permissions": ["repo.read"],
+    "redirect_uri": "https://myapp.com/callback"
+  }'
+```
+
+2. **Verify User Token:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost/api/verify \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "app_id": "com.mycompany.api",
+    "type": "user",
+    "user_id": "user@example.com",
+    "token": "user-token-from-login",
+    "permissions": ["repo.read"]
+  }'
+```
+
+3. **Renew Token Before Expiry:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost/api/renew \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "app_id": "com.mycompany.api",
+    "user_id": "user@example.com",
+    "token": "current-user-token"
+  }'
+```
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+- All tokens should be transmitted over HTTPS in production
+- Static tokens are returned only once during creation - store them securely
+- User tokens have both renewal and maximum validity periods
+- HMAC keys are used for token signing and should be rotated regularly
+- Rate limiting helps prevent abuse
+- Permission scopes follow hierarchical structure
+- All operations are logged with user attribution
+
+## Development and Testing
+
+The service includes comprehensive health checks, detailed logging, and metrics collection. When running with `LOG_LEVEL=debug`, additional debugging information is available in the logs.
+
+For local development, the service can be started with:
+```bash
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+This starts PostgreSQL, the API service, and Nginx proxy with test user headers configured.

+# End-to-End Testing Guide
+
+This document describes how to run end-to-end tests for the KMS (Key Management Service) API using the provided bash script.
+
+## Overview
+
+The `e2e_test.sh` script provides comprehensive end-to-end testing of the KMS API using curl commands. It tests all major functionality including health checks, authentication, application management, and token operations.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- `curl` command-line tool installed
+- KMS server running (either locally or remotely)
+- Bash shell environment
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Start the KMS Server
+
+First, make sure your KMS server is running. You can start it using Docker Compose:
+
+```bash
+# From the project root directory
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+Or run it directly:
+
+```bash
+go run cmd/server/main.go
+```
+
+### 2. Run the E2E Tests
+
+```bash
+# Run with default settings (server at localhost:8080)
+./test/e2e_test.sh
+
+# Or run with custom configuration
+BASE_URL=http://localhost:8080 USER_EMAIL=admin@example.com ./test/e2e_test.sh
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+The script supports several environment variables for configuration:
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `BASE_URL` | `http://localhost:8080` | Base URL of the KMS server |
+| `USER_EMAIL` | `test@example.com` | User email for authentication headers |
+| `USER_ID` | `test-user-123` | User ID for authentication headers |
+
+### Examples
+
+```bash
+# Test against a remote server
+BASE_URL=https://kms-api.example.com ./test/e2e_test.sh
+
+# Use different user credentials
+USER_EMAIL=admin@company.com USER_ID=admin-456 ./test/e2e_test.sh
+
+# Test against local server on different port
+BASE_URL=http://localhost:3000 ./test/e2e_test.sh
+```
+
+## Test Coverage
+
+The script tests the following functionality:
+
+### Health Endpoints
+- `GET /health` - Basic health check
+- `GET /ready` - Readiness check with database connectivity
+
+### Authentication Endpoints
+- `POST /api/login` - User login (with and without auth headers)
+- `POST /api/verify` - Token verification
+- `POST /api/renew` - Token renewal
+
+### Application Management
+- `GET /api/applications` - List applications (with pagination)
+- `POST /api/applications` - Create new application
+- `GET /api/applications/:id` - Get application by ID
+- `PUT /api/applications/:id` - Update application
+- `DELETE /api/applications/:id` - Delete application
+
+### Token Management
+- `GET /api/applications/:id/tokens` - List tokens for application
+- `POST /api/applications/:id/tokens` - Create static token
+- `DELETE /api/tokens/:id` - Delete token
+
+### Error Handling
+- Invalid endpoints (404 errors)
+- Malformed JSON requests
+- Missing authentication headers
+- Invalid request formats
+
+### Documentation
+- `GET /api/docs` - API documentation endpoint
+
+## Output Format
+
+The script provides colored output with clear test results:
+
+- 🔵 **[INFO]** - General information and test progress
+- 🟢 **[PASS]** - Successful test cases
+- 🔴 **[FAIL]** - Failed test cases
+- 🟡 **[WARN]** - Warnings and non-critical issues
+
+### Sample Output
+
+```
+[INFO] Starting End-to-End Tests for KMS API
+[INFO] Base URL: http://localhost:8080
+[INFO] User Email: test@example.com
+[INFO] User ID: test-user-123
+
+[INFO] Waiting for server to be ready...
+[PASS] Server is ready!
+
+[INFO] === Testing Health Endpoints ===
+[INFO] Running test: Health Check
+[PASS] Health Check (Status: 200)
+Response: {"status":"healthy","timestamp":"2025-08-22T17:13:26Z"}
+
+[INFO] Running test: Readiness Check
+[PASS] Readiness Check (Status: 200)
+Response: {"status":"ready","timestamp":"2025-08-22T17:13:26Z","checks":{"database":"healthy"}}
+
+...
+
+[INFO] === Test Summary ===
+Tests Run: 25
+Tests Passed: 23
+Tests Failed: 2
+Some tests failed!
+```
+
+## Features
+
+### Automatic Server Detection
+The script waits for the server to be ready before running tests, with a configurable timeout.
+
+### Dynamic Test Data
+- Creates test applications and extracts their IDs for subsequent tests
+- Creates test tokens and uses them for deletion tests
+- Automatically cleans up test data after completion
+
+### Comprehensive Error Testing
+Tests various error conditions including:
+- Missing authentication
+- Invalid JSON payloads
+- Non-existent resources
+- Malformed requests
+
+### Robust Error Handling
+- Graceful handling of network errors
+- Automatic cleanup on script interruption
+- Clear error messages and status codes
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+1. **Server Not Ready**
+   ```
+   [FAIL] Server failed to start within timeout
+   ```
+   - Ensure the KMS server is running
+   - Check if the server is accessible at the configured URL
+   - Verify database connectivity
+
+2. **Authentication Failures**
+   ```
+   [FAIL] List applications with auth (Expected: 200, Got: 401)
+   ```
+   - Check if authentication middleware is properly configured
+   - Verify the authentication headers are being processed correctly
+
+3. **Database Connection Issues**
+   ```
+   [FAIL] Readiness Check (Expected: 200, Got: 503)
+   ```
+   - Ensure PostgreSQL database is running
+   - Check database connection configuration
+   - Verify database migrations have been applied
+
+### Debug Mode
+
+For more detailed output, you can modify the script to include verbose curl output:
+
+```bash
+# Add -v flag to curl commands for verbose output
+# Edit the run_test function in e2e_test.sh
+```
+
+### Manual Testing
+
+You can also run individual curl commands manually for debugging:
+
+```bash
+# Test health endpoint
+curl -v http://localhost:8080/health
+
+# Test authentication
+curl -v -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/login \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-User-Email: test@example.com" \
+  -H "X-User-ID: test-user-123" \
+  -d '{"app_id": "test-app", "permissions": ["read"]}'
+```
+
+## Integration with CI/CD
+
+The script is designed to work well in CI/CD pipelines:
+
+```yaml
+# Example GitHub Actions workflow
+- name: Run E2E Tests
+  run: |
+    docker-compose up -d
+    sleep 10  # Wait for services to start
+    ./test/e2e_test.sh
+    docker-compose down
+  env:
+    BASE_URL: http://localhost:8080
+    USER_EMAIL: ci@example.com
+```
+
+## Extending the Tests
+
+To add new test cases:
+
+1. Create a new test function following the pattern `test_*`
+2. Use the `run_test` helper function for consistent output
+3. Add the function call to the `main()` function
+4. Update this documentation
+
+Example:
+
+```bash
+test_new_feature() {
+    log_info "=== Testing New Feature ==="
+    
+    run_test "New feature test" "200" \
+        -X GET "$API_BASE/new-endpoint" \
+        -H "X-User-Email: $USER_EMAIL" \
+        -H "X-User-ID: $USER_ID"
+}

+- Basic health check (`/health`)
+- Readiness check with database connectivity (`/ready`)
+
+### 2. **Application CRUD Operations**
+- Create new applications
+- List applications with pagination

+
+### 5. **Authentication Middleware**
+- Header-based authentication validation
+- Unauthorized access handling
+- User context management
+
+### 6. **Error Handling**
+- Invalid JSON request handling
+- Non-existent resource handling
+- Proper HTTP status codes
+
+### 7. **Concurrent Load Testing**
+- Multiple simultaneous health checks
+- Concurrent application listing requests
+- Database connection pooling under load
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before running the integration tests, ensure you have:
+
+1. **PostgreSQL Database**: Running on localhost:5432
+2. **Test Database**: Create a test database named `kms_test`
+3. **Go Dependencies**: All required Go modules installed
+
+### Database Setup
+
+```bash
+# Connect to PostgreSQL
+psql -U postgres -h localhost
+
+# Create test database
+CREATE DATABASE kms_test;
+
+# Grant permissions
+GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE kms_test TO postgres;
+```
+
+## Running the Tests
+
+### Option 1: Run All Integration Tests
+
+```bash
+# From the project root directory
+go test -v ./test/...
+```
+
+### Option 2: Run with Coverage
+
+```bash
+# Generate coverage report
+go test -v -coverprofile=coverage.out ./test/...
+go tool cover -html=coverage.out -o coverage.html
+```
+
+### Option 3: Run Specific Test Suites
+
+```bash
+# Run only health endpoint tests
+go test -v ./test/ -run TestHealthEndpoints
+
+# Run only application CRUD tests
+go test -v ./test/ -run TestApplicationCRUD
+
+# Run only token workflow tests
+go test -v ./test/ -run TestStaticTokenWorkflow
+
+# Run concurrent load tests
+go test -v ./test/ -run TestConcurrentRequests
+```
+
+### Option 4: Run with Docker/Podman
+
+```bash
+# Start the services first
+podman-compose up -d
+
+# Wait for services to be ready
+sleep 10
+
+# Run the tests
+go test -v ./test/...
+
+# Clean up
+podman-compose down
+```
+
+## Test Configuration
+
+The tests use a separate test configuration that:
+
+- Uses a dedicated test database (`kms_test`)
+- Disables rate limiting for testing
+- Disables metrics collection
+- Uses debug logging level
+- Configures shorter timeouts
+
+## Test Data Management
+
+The integration tests:
+
+- **Clean up after themselves**: Each test cleans up its test data
+- **Use isolated data**: Test data is prefixed with `test-` to avoid conflicts
+- **Reset state**: Database state is reset between test runs
+- **Use transactions**: Where possible, tests use database transactions
+
+## Expected Test Results
+
+When all tests pass, you should see output similar to:
+
+```
+=== RUN   TestIntegrationSuite
+=== RUN   TestIntegrationSuite/TestHealthEndpoints
+=== RUN   TestIntegrationSuite/TestApplicationCRUD

+=== RUN   TestIntegrationSuite/TestConcurrentRequests/ConcurrentApplicationListing
+--- PASS: TestIntegrationSuite (2.34s)
+PASS
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+1. **Database Connection Failed**
+   ```
+   Error: failed to connect to database
+   ```
+   - Ensure PostgreSQL is running
+   - Check database credentials
+   - Verify test database exists
+
+2. **Migration Errors**
+   ```
+   Error: failed to run migrations
+   ```
+   - Ensure migration files are in the correct location
+   - Check database permissions
+   - Verify migration file format
+
+3. **Port Already in Use**
+   ```
+   Error: bind: address already in use
+   ```
+   - The test server uses random ports, but check if other services are running
+   - Stop any running instances of the API service
+
+4. **Test Timeouts**
+   ```
+   Error: test timed out
+   ```
+   - Increase test timeout values
+   - Check database performance
+   - Verify network connectivity
+
+### Debug Mode
+
+To run tests with additional debugging:
+
+```bash
+# Enable debug logging
+LOG_LEVEL=debug go test -v ./test/...
+
+# Run with race detection
+go test -race -v ./test/...
+
+# Run with memory profiling
+go test -memprofile=mem.prof -v ./test/...
+```
+
+## Test Architecture
+
+The integration tests use:
+
+- **testify/suite**: For organized test suites with setup/teardown
+- **httptest**: For HTTP server testing
+- **testify/assert**: For test assertions
+- **testify/require**: For test requirements
+
+The test structure follows the same clean architecture as the main application:
+
+```
+test/
+├── integration_test.go    # Main integration test suite
+├── test_helpers.go        # Test utilities and mocks
+└── README.md             # This documentation
+```
+
+## Contributing
+
+When adding new integration tests:
+
+1. Follow the existing test patterns
+2. Clean up test data properly
+3. Use descriptive test names
+4. Add appropriate assertions
+5. Update this README if needed
+
+## Performance Benchmarks
+
+The concurrent load tests provide basic performance benchmarks:
+
+- **Health Check Load**: 50 concurrent requests
+- **Application Listing Load**: 20 concurrent requests
+- **Expected Response Time**: < 100ms for health checks
+- **Expected Throughput**: > 100 requests/second
+
+These benchmarks help ensure the service can handle reasonable concurrent load.
