Missing Unit Tests for HTTP Handlers in backend/pkg/handler
Description
The backend/pkg/handler directory contains the core HTTP routing and request parsing logic for the API (such as groups.go, channels.go, packages.go, etc.). However, these critical handler functions currently lack any unit test coverage.
Without tests at the HTTP handler layer, it's difficult to confidently verify that request parsing, parameter validation, and HTTP status code responses are behaving as expected when the API is modified.
Steps to Reproduce
- Clone the repository and navigate to the backend handler package:
- Search for any Go test files:
- Observe that no test files currently exist for these handlers (e.g., no
groups_test.go).
- Run the Go test coverage tool for the handler package:
- Observe that the HTTP handler logic is not covered by tests.
Expected Behavior
Test files (e.g. groups_test.go) should exist alongside the handler implementations. These tests should utilize net/http/httptest to mock incoming HTTP requests, route them through the handlers using mocked datastores, and assert that the correct HTTP responses (status codes and JSON structures) are returned.
