The token validation response handling should include tests to verify proper error responses for expired and invalid tokens

token_validator() is called without any arguments but based on the error handling it seems to expect an authorization token parameter

if "expired" in resp:
return Response(error_message_helper(resp), 401, mimetype="application/json")
return Response(error_message_helper(), 401, mimetype="application/json")

error_message_helper() is called without a message parameter which deviates from the helper function's intended usage pattern

elif "Invalid token" in resp:
return Response(error_message_helper(resp), 401, mimetype="application/json")
return Response(error_message_helper(), 401, mimetype="application/json")

The error message for invalid token case should be passed to error_message_helper() to provide more specific feedback
