- 🏆 **Showcases** - See real-world examples

## 📦 Test Template Marketplace

### Browse Templates

Find templates for common testing scenarios:

```bash
# List all templates
e2e community list-templates

# Filter by category
e2e community list-templates --category authentication

# Filter by framework
e2e community list-templates --framework fastapi
```

### Install a Template

Install a template into your service:

```bash
e2e community install-template <template-id> --service my-service

# With custom name
e2e community install-template <template-id> --service my-service --name custom_auth_tests
```

### Publish Your Own Template

Share your test templates with the community:

```bash
e2e community publish-template \
  --name "JWT Authentication Tests" \
  --description "Complete JWT auth test suite" \
  --category authentication \
  --framework fastapi \
  --author "Your Name" \
  --file ./my_template.py
```

### Template Categories

## 🔌 Plugin Repository

### Browse Plugins

Discover plugins to extend functionality:

```bash
# List all plugins
e2e community list-plugins

# Filter by tag
e2e community list-plugins --tag reporting
```

### Install a Plugin

```bash
e2e community install-plugin <plugin-id>
```

### Manage Plugins

```bash
# List installed plugins
e2e community list-installed-plugins

# Uninstall a plugin
e2e community uninstall-plugin <plugin-name>
```

### Creating Plugins

Create a plugin to extend the framework:

1. **Create Plugin Manifest** (`manifest.json`):

```json
{
  "name": "my-custom-plugin",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "Adds custom functionality",
  "author": "Your Name",
  "entry_point": "my_plugin.main",
  "hooks": ["before_test", "after_test"],
  "dependencies": [],
  "compatible_framework_versions": ["0.1.0+"],
  "min_python_version": "3.8",
  "tags": ["custom", "extension"]
}
```

2. **Implement Plugin** (`my_plugin.py`):

```python
"""My Custom Plugin"""

class MyPlugin:
    def __init__(self):
        self.name = "my-custom-plugin"
    
    def before_test(self, test_context):
        """Called before each test"""
        print(f"Running: {test_context.name}")
    
    def after_test(self, test_context, result):
        """Called after each test"""
        print(f"Completed: {test_context.name} - {result.status}")
```

3. **Package and Publish**:

```bash
# Create plugin package
e2e community create-plugin-package \
  --manifest manifest.json \
  --code my_plugin.py \
  --output my-plugin-v1.0.0.zip

# Publish to repository
e2e community publish-plugin \
  --package my-plugin-v1.0.0.zip
```

## 📚 Best Practices

### Writing Great Tests

#### 1. Test Structure

```python
# Good: Clear, focused test
async def test_user_can_login_with_valid_credentials():
    """Test that users can login with valid credentials."""
    response = await page.post("/auth/login", json={
        "email": "user@example.com",
        "password": "correct_password"
    })
    
    assert response.status == 200
    data = await response.json()
    assert "token" in data
    assert data["user"]["email"] == "user@example.com"

# Bad: Unclear, multiple assertions
async def test_login():
    response = await page.post("/auth/login", json={...})
    assert response.status == 200
    # ... more assertions
```

#### 2. Test Data Management

```python
# Good: Use data fixtures
from socialseed_e2e.fixtures import user_fixture

async def test_create_order(user_fixture):
    """Test order creation with valid user."""
    user = user_fixture.create_user()
    order = await create_order(user.id)
    assert order.user_id == user.id

# Bad: Hardcoded data
async def test_create_order():
    user = await create_user("test@example.com")  # May conflict
    order = await create_order(user.id)
```

#### 3. Error Handling

```python
# Good: Test error cases
async def test_login_with_invalid_password():
    """Test that invalid password returns 401."""
    response = await page.post("/auth/login", json={
        "email": "user@example.com",
        "password": "wrong_password"
    })
    
    assert response.status == 401
    data = await response.json()
    assert data["error"] == "Invalid credentials"
```

#### 4. Test Independence

```python
# Good: Tests are independent
async def test_user_crud():
    """Each test creates its own data."""
    user = await create_test_user()  # Creates unique user
    # ... test operations
    await cleanup_user(user.id)  # Cleanup

# Bad: Tests depend on each other
async def test_step1():
    global test_user
    test_user = await create_user()  # Shared state

async def test_step2():
    # Depends on test_step1
    await update_user(test_user.id)
```

### Organizing Tests

```
services/
├── auth-service/
│   ├── auth_service_page.py      # Service page
│   ├── data_schema.py             # DTOs and data
│   └── modules/
│       ├── test_01_login_flow.py
│       ├── test_02_registration.py
│       ├── test_03_password_reset.py
│       └── test_04_token_refresh.py
```

### Naming Conventions

- **Files**: `test_<number>_<description>.py`
- **Functions**: `test_<what>_<condition>_<expected_result>`
- **Classes**: `<Service>Page`
