Add Unit Tests for Bot Functionality

[Zingzy]

To ensure the bot's reliability and maintainability, we need to implement unit tests covering core functionalities. A comprehensive testing suite will help catch bugs early, ensure consistent behavior, and simplify future development and refactoring efforts.

The unit tests should focus on:

• Core command functionality.
• Interaction with external APIs.
• Edge case handling and error scenarios.

Tasks

• Identify Core Functionalities for Testing

  • List all commands and features that need to be tested.
  • Determine critical areas such as API interactions, data processing, and edge cases.

• Set Up Testing Framework

  • Research and choose a suitable Python testing framework (e.g., pytest, unittest).
  • Explore mocking tools for external API interactions.

• Define Testing Strategy

  • Decide on test coverage goals and prioritize high-impact functionalities.
  • Plan how to isolate and mock dependencies to create effective unit tests.

• Ensure Test Environment Readiness

  • Configure a dedicated testing environment.
  • Ensure test data and resources are accessible without impacting the live environment.

Outcome

Adding unit tests will help improve code quality, reduce bugs, and make the bot's development process more robust. Detailed implementation plans and specific tests will be created as the strategy is finalized.
