Goal-6-Task-1 Test Plan

Test Objectives

Verify Scheduled Task System Core meets all requirements:

1. Cron-like scheduling with ±1s accuracy
2. AES-256 encryption compliance
3. Integration with dispatcher system
4. Modularity (file size ≤ 500 lines)
5. Test coverage ≥ 95%

Test Cases

1. Scheduling Accuracy

• Verify task execution within ±1s of scheduled time
• Test various cron expressions (* * * * *, */5 * * * *, etc.)
• Verify handling of daylight savings time changes

2. Security Compliance

• Verify AES-256 encryption for task payloads
• Validate encryption key management
• Test secure task serialization

3. Dispatcher Integration

• Verify task execution triggers dispatcher
• Test error handling when dispatcher unavailable
• Validate task status updates

4. Modularity

• Verify scheduler.py ≤ 500 lines
• Check separation of concerns
• Validate dependency management

5. Test Coverage

• Review existing test cases
• Identify missing coverage areas
• Verify ≥ 95% coverage

Test Environment

• Python 3.10+
• pytest framework
• Local development environment

Test Data

• Sample cron expressions
• Test tasks with various payloads
• Mock dispatcher responses

Risks

• Timing tests may be flaky
• Encryption tests require valid keys
• Dispatcher integration requires running service
