# Testing Guide

## Manual Testing Checklist

### ✅ Backend Testing

#### 1. Health Check
```bash
curl http://localhost:5000/api/health
```

Expected response:
```json
{
  "status": "ok",
  "ffmpeg_installed": true,
  "timestamp": "2025-..."
}
```

#### 2. Platform List
```bash
curl http://localhost:5000/api/platforms
```

Should return all 8 platforms with 21 total format combinations.

#### 3. Filename Detection
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/detect \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"filename": "summer_ad_tiktok_9x16.mp4"}'
```

Expected:
```json
{
  "platform": "tiktok",
  "aspect_ratio": "9:16",
  "detected": true
}
```

### ✅ Frontend Testing

#### Test Cases

**1. File Upload**
- [ ] Drag & drop works
- [ ] Click to browse works
- [ ] Invalid file types rejected
- [ ] File info displays correctly

**2. Auto-Detection**
Test these filenames:
- [ ] `test_tiktok_9x16.mp4` → TikTok, 9:16
- [ ] `demo_meta_1x1.mov` → Meta, 1:1
- [ ] `ad_youtube_16x9.mp4` → YouTube, 16:9
- [ ] `campaign_pinterest_2x3.mp4` → Pinterest, 2:3

**3. Platform Selection**
- [ ] All 8 platforms listed
- [ ] Selecting platform populates aspect ratios
- [ ] Format info updates correctly
- [ ] Bitrate hints show recommended values

**4. Video Conversion**
- [ ] Convert button enables when valid
- [ ] Progress bar displays
- [ ] Conversion completes successfully
- [ ] Error handling works for invalid inputs

**5. Video Comparison**
- [ ] Both videos display
- [ ] File size stats correct
- [ ] Reduction percentage calculated
- [ ] Sync playback works
- [ ] Pause both works
- [ ] Download buttons work

**6. Edge Cases**
- [ ] Very large files (>100MB)
- [ ] Very short videos (<5 seconds)
- [ ] Videos with no audio
- [ ] Custom bitrate override
- [ ] Multiple conversions in sequence

---

### ✅ Codec Validation

Verify correct codec usage for each platform:

**TikTok (H265):**
```bash
ffprobe output_file.mp4 2>&1 | grep -i hevc
# Should contain "hevc" or "h265"
```

**YouTube (VP9):**
```bash
ffprobe output_file.webm 2>&1 | grep -i vp9
# Should contain "vp9"
```

**Meta/Others (H264):**
```bash
ffprobe output_file.mp4 2>&1 | grep -i h264
# Should contain "h264"
```

---

### ✅ Performance Testing

**Expected Conversion Times (1 minute 1080p video):**

| Platform | Expected Time | Notes |
|----------|---------------|-------|
| Meta (H264) | 20-40s | Fast |
| TikTok (H265) | 40-80s | Slower (better compression) |
| YouTube (VP9) | 60-120s | Slowest (best quality/size) |

*Times vary based on hardware and video complexity*

---

### ✅ Quality Assurance

**Visual Comparison Checks:**

1. **Sharpness** - Text remains readable
2. **Color** - No significant color shift
3. **Motion** - No excessive blocking in fast scenes
4. **Audio** - Sync and quality maintained

**Acceptable Degradation:**
- Slight softness in small details
- Minor compression artifacts in complex scenes
- Should NOT have: blocking, color banding, desync

---

### ✅ File Size Validation

**Target Reductions (vs. unoptimized source):**

| Platform | Target Reduction | Acceptable Range |
|----------|-----------------|------------------|
| TikTok | 30-40% | 20-50% |
| Meta | 25-35% | 15-45% |
| YouTube | 20-30% | 10-40% |
| Pinterest | 25-35% | 15-45% |

**Warning Signs:**
- ❌ Less than 10% reduction → Check settings
- ❌ More than 60% reduction → Quality likely too low

---

## Integration Testing

### Full Workflow Test

1. Start application: `./start.sh`
2. Upload: `sample_video_tiktok_9x16.mp4`
3. Verify auto-detection: TikTok + 9:16
4. Convert with recommended settings
5. Compare videos side-by-side
6. Verify file size reduction (target: 30-40%)
7. Download optimized file
8. Verify downloaded file plays correctly
9. Upload new file (test cleanup)

---

## Browser Compatibility

Test in:
- [ ] Chrome/Edge (Chromium)
- [ ] Firefox
- [ ] Safari (macOS/iOS)
- [ ] Mobile browsers

**Known Issues:**
- VP9/WebM may have limited support in Safari (falls back to H264)

---

## API Load Testing

### Simple Load Test
```bash
# Upload 10 files concurrently
for i in {1..10}; do
  curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/upload \
    -F "file=@test_video.mp4" &
done
wait
```

**Expected:** All uploads succeed, no crashes

---

## Error Scenarios

Test these error conditions:

1. **No FFmpeg installed**
   - Remove FFmpeg temporarily
   - Start server → Should warn but not crash

2. **Corrupted video file**
   - Upload corrupted file → Should show error

3. **Invalid platform/aspect ratio combo**
   - Try TikTok 2:3 → Should error gracefully

4. **Network interruption**
   - Stop backend mid-conversion → Frontend should handle

5. **Disk space full**
   - Fill disk → Should error gracefully

---

## Clean Up After Testing

```bash
# Remove test files
rm -rf backend/uploads/*
rm -rf backend/outputs/*

# Keep .gitkeep files
touch backend/uploads/.gitkeep
touch backend/outputs/.gitkeep
```

---

## Regression Testing Checklist

Before major updates, verify:

- [ ] All 21 platform/format combinations work
- [ ] Filename auto-detection patterns work
- [ ] Side-by-side comparison works
- [ ] File downloads work
- [ ] Cleanup endpoint works
- [ ] No memory leaks (long-running test)

---

## Test Video Sources

**Where to get test videos:**

1. **Pixabay** - https://pixabay.com/videos/ (Free)
2. **Pexels** - https://www.pexels.com/videos/ (Free)
3. **Generate test patterns:**
```bash
# Create 10-second test video
ffmpeg -f lavfi -i testsrc=duration=10:size=1920x1080:rate=30 \
  -pix_fmt yuv420p test_pattern.mp4
```
