Generate Convex tests

Use convex-test + vitest to test functions against an in-memory backend: args/returns, auth paths, indexes, and scheduled functions.

Steps

  1. Install convex-test + vitest.
  2. Write tests using convexTest(schema): seed via t.run, call t.query/t.mutation, assert.
  3. Cover auth (withIdentity), error paths, and scheduled functions (t.finishInProgressScheduledFunctions).
  4. Run vitest; keep tests deterministic.

Rules

  • Use convex-test (in-memory), not a live deployment.
  • Cover auth + error paths, not just the happy path.
  • Keep tests deterministic (no real time/network).
