+
+### Test Categories
+
+#### 1. **Basic Tests** (`basic_tests.rs`)
+- Database connection and health checks
+- Simple CRUD operations for paths
+- JSON import/export functionality
+- Search capabilities
+- Error handling scenarios
+- Path cloning operations
+
+#### 2. **Repository Tests** (`simplified_repository_tests.rs`)
+- Comprehensive repository testing including:
+  - Metadata repository operations
+  - Path repository full CRUD lifecycle
+  - Repository manager coordination
+  - Transaction handling (commit/rollback)
+  - Concurrent operations safety
+  - Complex path structures with multiple nodes/exercises
+
+## 🧪 Test Infrastructure
+
+### Test Database (`common/TestDb`)
+Each test uses an isolated SQLite database that is:
+- Created with a unique UUID identifier
+- Automatically migrated with the latest schema
+- Cleaned up after test completion
+- Located in `./test_dbs/` directory
+
+### Key Features
+- **Isolation**: Each test gets its own database instance
+- **Cleanup**: Automatic cleanup prevents test interference
+- **Migrations**: Uses real SQLx migrations for authentic schema
+- **Concurrent Safe**: Tests can run in parallel safely
+
+### Test Data Helpers
+Pre-built test data generators in each test file for:
+- `create_test_path()` - Complete learning path with nodes and exercises
+- `create_test_metadata(path_id, version)` - Metadata with proper timestamps
+- `create_simple_test_path()` - Minimal valid path for basic testing
+

+- ✅ **Search**: Content-based path discovery
+- ✅ **Validation**: Data integrity checking
+- ✅ **Concurrent Operations**: Multi-threaded safety testing
+
+### Test Scenarios
+- **Basic Workflows**: Simple path creation → retrieval → deletion
+- **Complex Structures**: Multi-node paths with various exercise types
+- **Error Conditions**: Non-existent resources, invalid data
+- **Performance**: Concurrent operations, large datasets
+- **Data Integrity**: Reference consistency, transaction safety
+
+## 🔧 Test Configuration
+
+### Environment Variables
+```bash
+# Enable debug logging during tests
+export RUST_LOG=debug
+
+# Enable backtraces for better error debugging
+export RUST_BACKTRACE=1
+```
+
+### Test Database Settings
+Tests use temporary SQLite databases with:
+- Unique UUID-based naming to prevent conflicts
+- Automatic cleanup on test completion
+- Full schema migrations applied
+- WAL mode for better concurrency
+
+### Parallel Execution
+Tests run in parallel by default. To run sequentially:
+```bash
+cargo test -- --test-threads=1
+```
+
+## 🛠️ Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+#### Database Lock Errors
+```
+Error: database is locked
+```
+**Solution**: Reduce parallel test threads or ensure proper cleanup
+```bash
+cargo test -- --test-threads=1
+```
+
+#### Missing Dependencies
+```
+Error: could not find dependency
+```
+**Solution**: Install development dependencies
+```bash
+cargo build --tests
+```
+
+#### File Permission Errors
+```
+Error: Permission denied
+```
+**Solution**: Check permissions on test directories
+```bash
+mkdir -p test_dbs && chmod 755 test_dbs
+```
+
+### Debug Mode
+Enable detailed logging for debugging:
+```bash
+RUST_LOG=debug cargo test test_name -- --nocapture
+```

+
+## 📚 Adding New Tests
+
+### Adding a New Test Function
+1. Choose the appropriate test file (`basic_tests.rs` or `simplified_repository_tests.rs`)
+2. Follow the existing pattern:
+```rust
+#[tokio::test]
+async fn test_my_new_feature() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
+    let test_db = TestDb::new().await?;
+    let repo_manager = RepositoryManager::new(&test_db.pool);
+    
+    // Your test logic here
+    
+    test_db.cleanup().await?;
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+### Test Guidelines
+- Always use isolated test databases
+- Include both success and failure scenarios
+- Test error conditions and edge cases
+- Verify data integrity after operations
+- Clean up resources properly
+
+### Performance Testing
+For performance-critical tests:
+```rust
+let start_time = std::time::Instant::now();
+// Operation to test
+let duration = start_time.elapsed();
+println!("Operation took: {:?}", duration);
+```
+
+## 🎉 Success Metrics
+
+The current test suite ensures:
+- **Reliability**: All repository operations work correctly
+- **Performance**: Operations complete within acceptable timeframes
+- **Safety**: Concurrent access doesn't cause data corruption
+- **Integrity**: Data relationships are properly maintained
+- **Robustness**: Graceful handling of error conditions
+
+This test infrastructure provides a solid foundation for continued development and ensures the Flalingo backend remains stable and performant.
