The five authRateLimiter registrations were inert for the same reason the
general one was -- registered below the error handler. Auth endpoints have
never had an IP limit; the 5-attempt behaviour QA observed is the per-account
lockout in authSecurity.js, which is a different mechanism and is untouched.
They could not simply be activated: app.use('/api/auth', ...) is a prefix, so
a 5-per-window budget would have covered GET /api/auth/session and
POST /api/auth/password-strength, which the frontend calls far more than five
times per window. That locks users out.
The real surface was enumerated by loading the routers and walking
router.stack rather than grepping, which showed two of the five registrations
pointed at routes that do not exist: adminAuth.js has no /login (admin login
is POST /api/auth/admin/login) and there is no /api/gallery/:slug/verify
(gallery verify is POST /api/auth/gallery/verify).
Now limited, on exact method+path: admin login, admin MFA verify, gallery
password verify, share-login, client PIN, setup verify-token, setup admin,
customer login, customer password-reset. Deliberately unlimited: session
checks, password-strength, logouts, authenticated change-password, the SSO
round-trip (a 429 on the callback breaks login from shared corporate IPs),
and one-time invite/accept-invite links.
Two choices carry the design. skipSuccessfulRequests means only failed
attempts spend budget, which is what makes 5-per-IP survivable behind NAT --
ten guests on one venue wifi all typing the correct gallery password consume
nothing -- and means a legitimate admin cannot be locked out by their own
success. And the limiter keeps its own rateLimit() instance, hence its own
store and its own per-IP bucket, with the general gate's auth exemption left
in place: sharing a counter is exactly the lockout described above.
Patterns are case-insensitive because Express's case-sensitive routing is off
by default, so POST /api/auth/admin/LOGIN reaches the login handler and a
case-sensitive pattern would have been a free bypass.
max is now read per request, so the Settings UI's rate_limit_auth_max_requests
applies without a restart, matching the general limiter.
Tests prove both directions: each credential endpoint 429s on attempt 6 with
the response shape the four login pages already branch on, each benign
endpoint still returns 200 after 40 calls, the two buckets are independent in
both directions, and 30 consecutive successful logins consume no budget.

- Service lifecycle management
Integration Tests
integration/backup-s3.test.js- Integration tests for S3 backups- Real S3/MinIO connection tests
- Full backup process with actual files
- Incremental backup verification
- Manifest storage and retrieval
- Error recovery scenarios
Manual Integration Test Script
../scripts/test-backup-integration.js- Comprehensive manual testing script- Can test against MinIO, AWS S3, or any S3-compatible service
- Tests all backup types (S3, local, rsync)
- Performance testing with large files
- Detailed progress reporting
Running Tests
Prerequisites
-
For Unit Tests: No special setup required, all dependencies are mocked.
-
For Integration Tests: Requires a running S3-compatible service (MinIO recommended)
# Start MinIO using Docker docker run -d \ -p 9000:9000 \ -p 9001:9001 \ --name minio-test \ -e MINIO_ROOT_USER=minioadmin \ -e MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=minioadmin \ minio/minio server /data --console-address ":9001" -
Environment Variables (for integration tests):
# Optional - defaults work with local MinIO export TEST_S3_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:9000 export TEST_S3_ACCESS_KEY=minioadmin export TEST_S3_SECRET_KEY=minioadmin # Skip S3 tests if no S3 service available export SKIP_S3_TESTS=true
Running Unit Tests
# Run all backup service tests
npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js
# Run specific test suite
npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js -t "S3 Backup Functionality"
# Run with coverage
npm test -- --coverage __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js
Running Integration Tests
# Ensure MinIO is running first!
# Run S3 integration tests
npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js
# Run with verbose output
npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js --verbose
# Skip S3 tests if needed

Running Manual Integration Tests
# Test with local MinIO (default)
node scripts/test-backup-integration.js
# Test with AWS S3
node scripts/test-backup-integration.js \
--endpoint https://s3.amazonaws.com \
--access-key YOUR_ACCESS_KEY \
--secret-key YOUR_SECRET_KEY \
--bucket your-test-bucket
# Test local backup

Mock Setup
The unit tests use comprehensive mocking:
// Database mocking
jest.mock('../../src/database/db');
// S3 client mocking
jest.mock('../../src/services/storage/s3Storage');
// File system mocking
const mockFs = require('mock-fs');
// Cron job mocking
jest.mock('node-cron');
CI/CD Integration
To run tests in CI/CD pipeline:
# Example GitHub Actions
- name: Run Unit Tests
run: npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js
- name: Start MinIO
run: |
docker run -d \
-p 9000:9000 \
--name minio-test \
-e MINIO_ROOT_USER=minioadmin \
-e MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=minioadmin \
minio/minio server /data
- name: Run Integration Tests
run: npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js
Debugging Tests
# Run tests in debug mode
node --inspect-brk ./node_modules/.bin/jest __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js
# Run single test with console output
npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js -t "should perform S3 backup" --verbose
Performance Considerations
- Integration tests create real files and S3 objects
- Each test run creates a unique S3 bucket to avoid conflicts
- Cleanup is automatic but can be disabled for debugging
- Large file tests (10MB+) are included but can be slow
Adding New Tests
When adding new backup features:
- Add unit tests to
backupService.enhanced.test.js - Add integration tests to
backup-s3.test.jsif S3-specific - Update manual test script for comprehensive testing
- Ensure mocks are properly configured
- Document any new environment requirements
