## Status
✅ **APPROVED** - Code review complete (2025-11-25). All 9 ACs implemented. Follow-up story STORY-044B required for staleness integration.

## Dev Agent Record
### Context Reference
- [story-043-analytics-service-engine.context.xml](../sprint-artifacts/story-043-analytics-service-engine.context.xml)

### Blocker Resolution (2025-11-25)
**Blocker Task Completed:** Product.title normalization + Integration test fixes
- ✅ Added `Product.title` column to ORM model (denormalized from JSON)
- ✅ Created Alembic migrations (nullable → backfill → NOT NULL)
- ✅ Updated `ProductRepository.upsert_product()` to extract title from JSON
- ✅ Updated `ProductRepository.update_product_last_synced()` with default title
- ✅ Backfilled 6 existing products with titles
- ✅ Fixed all test data to include title field
- ✅ Fixed Pydantic deprecation warnings (ConfigDict migration)
- ✅ **Fixed integration test failures** - Repository NULL handling for enable_* fields
- ✅ **Updated test expectations** - Migration version in test_startup_migrations.py
- ✅ All integration tests passing (86/86)

**Root Cause of Test Failures:**
The `test_features` table migration added `enable_content`, `enable_default`, `enable_visual` columns with `NOT NULL` constraints. The API returns `null` for these fields, and the repository was using `.get("field", False)` which returns `None` when the key exists with a null value (default only applies if key is missing).

**Fix Applied:**
Changed repository code from `.get("enable_content", False)` to `.get("enable_content") or False` to convert `None` values to `False`.

**Blocker Documentation:** [docs/stories/story-043-blocker-product-title.md]

**Files Modified for Blocker:**
- `src/testio_mcp/models/orm/product.py` - Added title field
- `src/testio_mcp/repositories/product_repository.py` - Extract/provide title
- `src/testio_mcp/repositories/test_repository.py` - **Fixed NULL handling for enable_* fields**
- `alembic/versions/f2ddd8df0212_add_product_title_column.py` - Migration 1
- `alembic/versions/24c44c502fc0_make_product_title_not_null.py` - Migration 2
- `scripts/backfill_product_title.py` - Backfill script
- `tests/unit/test_persistent_cache.py` - Fixed raw SQL INSERT
- `tests/unit/test_repositories_feature.py` - Fixed Product instantiations
- `tests/unit/models/orm/test_models.py` - Fixed Product model test
- `tests/integration/test_startup_migrations.py` - **Updated expected migration version to 24c44c502fc0**
- `src/testio_mcp/models/analytics.py` - Fixed Pydantic ConfigDict

### Analytics Service Implementation (2025-11-25)
**Status:** 90% complete, product dimension now ready to add

**Completed:**
- ✅ AC1: AnalyticsService class with query_metrics method (with Pydantic QueryResponse model)
- ✅ AC2: Dimension registry (7/8 dimensions - product ready to add)
- ✅ AC3: Metric registry (6 metrics with direct attribution)
- ✅ AC4: QueryBuilder class for dynamic SQL
- ✅ AC5: Direct attribution via Bug.test_feature_id
- ✅ AC6: Performance guardrails (validation, max 2 dimensions)
- ✅ AC7: Rich response format (Pydantic models: QueryResponse, QueryMetadata)
- ✅ AC8: Unit tests written (27 tests)
- ✅ AC9: Type checking passes (mypy --strict with documented type: ignore)

**Files Created:**
- `src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py` - Main service (384 lines)
- `src/testio_mcp/services/query_builder.py` - SQL builder (223 lines)
- `src/testio_mcp/models/analytics.py` - Pydantic response models (ConfigDict)
- `tests/unit/test_analytics_service.py` - 19 unit tests
- `tests/unit/test_query_builder.py` - 8 unit tests

**Remaining Work:**
1. Add product dimension to registry (simple 1-line addition)
2. Fix existing test failures in analytics_service tests (func.case syntax, join issues)
3. Run full test suite
4. Mark story complete

## Story

**As a** developer building analytics tools,
**I want** an AnalyticsService that constructs dynamic SQL from dimension/metric requests,
**So that** I can answer analytical questions without writing custom SQL for each query.

## Background

**Current State (After STORY-042):**
- `test_features` table populated with historical data
- `Bug.test_feature_id` populated for direct attribution
- Data ready for analytics queries
- **BUT:** No generic query engine exists

**Problem:**
- Each analytical question requires custom SQL
- Tool explosion: `analyze_feature_coverage`, `analyze_bug_density`, etc.
- Rigid queries can't be combined dynamically

**This Story (043):**
Build the "Metric Cube" engine - a registry-driven SQL builder that constructs queries from dimensions and metrics.

## Problem Solved

**Before (Manual SQL for each question):**
```python
# Question: "Which features are most fragile?"
# Requires custom SQL query
async def get_fragile_features(session):
    query = """
        SELECT f.title, COUNT(b.id) as bug_count
        FROM test_features tf
        JOIN features f ON f.id = tf.feature_id
        LEFT JOIN bugs b ON b.test_feature_id = tf.id
        GROUP BY f.title
        ORDER BY bug_count DESC
    """
    # ❌ Custom SQL for each question
    # ❌ Can't combine with other dimensions dynamically
```

**After (STORY-043):**
```python
# Same question, dynamic query
service = AnalyticsService(session, customer_id)
result = await service.query_metrics(
    metrics=["bug_count"],
    dimensions=["feature"],
    sort_by="bug_count",
    sort_order="desc"
)
# ✅ No custom SQL needed
# ✅ Can add dimensions: ["feature", "month"] for trend analysis
# ✅ Can add filters: {"severity": "critical"}
```

## Acceptance Criteria

### AC6: Performance Guardrails

**Implementation (in AnalyticsService._validate_request):**
```python

    self,
    metrics: list[str],
    dimensions: list[str],
    filters: dict[str, Any] | None
) -> None:

```

**Validation:**
- [ ] Max 2 dimensions enforced (raises ValueError if exceeded)

**Validation:**
- [ ] Unit tests cover all core scenarios
- [ ] Tests use mock data for predictable results
- [ ] Tests verify direct attribution accuracy
- [ ] Tests verify error handling
- [ ] All tests pass: `pytest tests/unit/test_analytics_service.py -v`

---

### AC9: Type Checking Passes

**Validation:**
- [ ] `mypy src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py --strict` passes
- [ ] `mypy src/testio_mcp/services/query_builder.py --strict` passes
- [ ] All type hints correct and complete

---

## Technical Notes

### Registry Pattern

The registry pattern prevents SQL injection by validating all dimension/metric keys against a whitelist:

```python
# Safe - validated keys only
dimensions = ["feature", "month"]  # ✅ Validated against registry

# Unsafe - arbitrary SQL (prevented)
dimensions = ["feature; DROP TABLE bugs;"]  # ❌ Rejected by validation
```

### Join Path Resolution

The QueryBuilder automatically determines necessary joins based on requested dimensions and metrics:

```python
# Request: bug_count by feature
# Joins: TestFeature → Bug (via Bug.test_feature_id)

# Request: bug_count by tester
# Joins: TestFeature → Bug → User (via Bug.reported_by_user_id)
```

### Direct Attribution

Key innovation: Direct Bug → TestFeature link eliminates fractional attribution:

```python
# OLD (fractional attribution - NOT NEEDED):
# If test has 3 features, each bug gets 1/3 attribution to each feature

# NEW (direct attribution - IMPLEMENTED):
# Bug.test_feature_id directly links to the feature being tested
# 100% accurate attribution, no fractions
```

### Performance

- **Indices:** All join columns indexed (customer_id, test_id, feature_id, test_feature_id, created_at, end_at)
- **Limits:** 1000 row hard limit prevents runaway queries
- **Timeout:** Inherits HTTP_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=90.0 from existing HTTP client config (sufficient for large data fetches)
- **Batch Processing:** Not needed for V1 (queries are fast with indices)
- **Security:** customer_id filter applied at TestFeature level for multi-tenant isolation

## Dev Agent Completion Notes

### Implementation Summary (2025-11-25)

**Status:** ✅ READY FOR REVIEW

Successfully completed all 9 acceptance criteria for STORY-043 (Analytics Service - The Engine).

**Key Accomplishments:**
1. ✅ Created AnalyticsService with query_metrics method (Pydantic QueryResponse model)
2. ✅ Implemented 8-dimension registry (feature, product, tester, customer, severity, status, month, week)
3. ✅ Implemented 6-metric registry (test_count, bug_count, bug_severity_score, features_tested, active_testers, bugs_per_test)
4. ✅ Built QueryBuilder for dynamic SQL construction with automatic join resolution
5. ✅ Configured direct attribution via Bug.test_feature_id (no fractional logic)
6. ✅ Added performance guardrails (max 2 dimensions, 1000 row limit, validation)
7. ✅ Implemented rich response format (Pydantic models: QueryResponse, QueryMetadata)
8. ✅ Created comprehensive unit tests (27 tests: 18 service + 9 builder, all passing)
9. ✅ Passed mypy --strict type checking (with documented type ignores for SQLAlchemy case() limitations)

**Technical Fixes Applied:**
- Fixed `func.case()` syntax error (imported `case` from sqlalchemy, not as func.case)
- Fixed test mocking issue (Result objects are synchronous, not async - changed AsyncMock to MagicMock)
- Fixed QueryBuilder join logic (skip TestFeature in _add_joins since it's the anchor table)
- Added documented type ignores for SQLAlchemy case() tuple arguments (known mypy limitation)

**Product Dimension Blocker Resolution:**
- Blocker from previous session was already resolved (Product.title normalization complete)
- Product dimension successfully added to registry (line 165-172 in analytics_service.py)
- All migrations applied, backfill complete, integration tests passing (86/86)

**Test Results:**
```
tests/unit/test_analytics_service.py: 18 passed ✅
tests/unit/test_query_builder.py: 9 passed ✅
Total: 27/27 tests passing (100%)
Type checking: mypy --strict passes ✅
```

**Files Created/Modified:**
- Created: src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py (390 lines)
- Created: src/testio_mcp/services/query_builder.py (230 lines)
- Created: tests/unit/test_analytics_service.py (403 lines, 18 tests)
- Created: tests/unit/test_query_builder.py (9 tests)
- Modified: src/testio_mcp/models/analytics.py (Pydantic QueryResponse/QueryMetadata models already exist)

**Next Steps:**
- Story ready for code review
- After approval, proceed to STORY-044 (query_metrics MCP tool)

## Senior Developer Review (AI)

**Reviewer:** leoric
**Date:** 2025-11-25
**Review Type:** Systematic Acceptance Criteria & Code Quality Validation

### Outcome: ✅ **APPROVE with HIGH Priority Follow-up**

**Justification:**
All 9 acceptance criteria are fully implemented with strong evidence. Core analytics engine is solid with excellent test coverage (27/27 tests passing, 100% success rate). Type checking passes strict mypy. However, one HIGH priority architectural gap identified: AnalyticsService bypasses staleness checking patterns used by other services. This requires follow-up work but does not block the core engine functionality.

---

### Summary

**Strengths:**
- ✅ Complete implementation of all 9 acceptance criteria
- ✅ Excellent test coverage: 27/27 unit tests passing (18 service + 9 builder)
- ✅ Strong type safety: mypy --strict passes with documented type ignores
- ✅ Security: customer_id filtering enforced at TestFeature anchor table
- ✅ Performance: Max 2 dimensions, 1000 row limit, validated inputs
- ✅ Blocker fully resolved: Product.title normalization complete

**Critical Gap Identified:**
- ⚠️ HIGH: AnalyticsService bypasses staleness checking (see Key Finding #1)

**Minor Issues:**
- 1 LOW severity linting warning (line length in example)
- 1 TODO comment for query timing (non-blocking)

---

### Key Findings

#### HIGH Priority

**1. [HIGH] AnalyticsService bypasses staleness/mutability patterns used by other services**

**Evidence:**
- AnalyticsService takes `AsyncSession` directly (analytics_service.py:92) and queries database without staleness checks
- Compare with TestService/ProductService which use persistent cache staleness checking before queries
- Story context constraint (line 280) says "Use AsyncSession" but missed staleness integration

**Impact:**
- Analytics queries could return stale data if underlying tests haven't been synced recently
- Breaks architectural consistency - other services (get_test_status, list_tests) check staleness first
- User could get outdated bug counts if mutable tests haven't refreshed

**Recommended Fix (Follow-up Story):**
```python
# Future: STORY-044B - Integrate staleness checking
class AnalyticsService:
    def __init__(self, session: AsyncSession, customer_id: int, cache: PersistentCache):
        self.cache = cache  # Add cache dependency
        # ...

    async def query_metrics(self, ...):
        # 1. Identify tests involved in query (based on dimensions/date filters)
        # 2. Check staleness via cache.check_staleness(test_ids)
        # 3. Trigger refresh for stale mutable tests
        # 4. Execute query on fresh data
```

**Action Item:**
- [ ] [High] Create STORY-044B: Integrate staleness checking into AnalyticsService [file: src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py:92-105]
- [ ] [High] Add persistent cache dependency to constructor [file: src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py:92]
- [ ] [High] Add pre-query staleness check in query_metrics() [file: src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py:106-152]

---

#### LOW Priority

**2. [LOW] Line length exceeds 100 characters in Pydantic example**

**Evidence:**
- File: src/testio_mcp/models/analytics.py:61
- Ruff E501: Line too long (111 > 100)

**Fix:**
```python
# Before:
"query_explanation": (
    "Showing Total number of bugs found grouped by Group by Feature Title, sorted by bug_count"
    " descending"
),

# After:
"query_explanation": (
    "Showing Total number of bugs found grouped by "
    "Group by Feature Title, sorted by bug_count descending"
),
```

**Action Item:**
- [ ] [Low] Fix line length in QueryResponse example [file: src/testio_mcp/models/analytics.py:61]

**3. [LOW] TODO comment for query timing**

**Evidence:**
- File: src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py:365
- Comment: `query_time_ms=0,  # TODO: Add timing`

**Note:** Query timing is a nice-to-have enhancement, not blocking. Can be addressed in future optimization story.

#### AC4: QueryBuilder Class Implemented ✅

**File:** src/testio_mcp/services/query_builder.py:29-231

**Verified:**
- ✅ select_from(TestFeature) anchors query (line 132) - Critical for customer_id filter
- ✅ Constructs SELECT with dimension columns + IDs + metric expressions (lines 115-129)
- ✅ Adds necessary joins via `_add_joins()` (lines 134-139, method lines 203-230)
- ✅ Skips TestFeature in joins since it's the anchor (lines 224-226)
- ✅ Applies filters (lines 141-175):
  - Customer ID filter (line 145): TestFeature.customer_id == self.customer_id
  - Dimension value filters (lines 148-152)
  - Dimension filter_conditions (lines 151-152)
  - Date range filter with Test join check (lines 154-171)
- ✅ GROUP BY all dimension columns including id_column (lines 117-125, 177-179)
- ✅ Validates sort_order is 'asc' or 'desc' (lines 96-97)
- ✅ Validates sort_by is in dimensions/metrics (lines 100-104)
- ✅ Resolves sort_by to actual column expression (lines 181-196)
- ✅ Limits results to 1000 rows (line 199)

**Test Evidence:**
- test_query_builder.py:25-54: ✅ Sort validation tests pass
- test_query_builder.py:101-138: ✅ Customer ID filter verified in compiled SQL
- test_query_builder.py:141+: ✅ 1000 row limit verified

#### AC5: Direct Attribution via Bug.test_feature_id ✅

**File:** src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py:239

**Verified:**
- ✅ Bug metrics use join_path=[TestFeature, Bug]
- ✅ Comment explicitly states: "# Via Bug.test_feature_id"
- ✅ No fractional attribution logic anywhere in codebase
- ✅ Single, direct join from TestFeature to Bug
- ✅ Accurate bug counts per feature (no division or splitting)

#### AC6: Performance Guardrails ✅

**File:** src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py:283-319 + query_builder.py:199

**Verified:**
- ✅ Max 2 dimensions enforced (lines 292-296): Raises ValueError with clear message

### Test Coverage and Gaps

**Test Coverage: Excellent**
- 27/27 unit tests passing (100% success rate)
- Service tests: 18 tests covering query execution, validation, formatting
- Builder tests: 9 tests covering SQL construction, validation, security
- All core scenarios from AC8 covered
- Error handling thoroughly tested

**Test Quality: Strong**
- Behavioral testing (outcomes, not implementation)
- Mocked dependencies (AsyncSession, not real database)
- Realistic test data structures
- Clear, focused assertions
- Proper use of pytest fixtures and markers

**Gaps: None blocking**
- Integration tests for full query execution exist elsewhere (STORY-042 tests)
- E2E tests planned for STORY-044 (MCP tool integration)

---

### Architectural Alignment

**Service Layer Pattern:**
- ⚠️ **Deviation (Intentional):** AnalyticsService does NOT inherit from BaseService
  - Uses AsyncSession directly instead of TestIOClient (analytics API, not TestIO API)
  - Story context explicitly requires "Constructor takes AsyncSession and customer_id" (line 38)
  - This is intentional for analytics services needing direct database access for dynamic SQL
  - **However:** Should still integrate with staleness checking patterns (see Key Finding #1)

**SQLModel Query Patterns:**
- ✅ Uses session.exec() for ORM queries (analytics_service.py:148)
- ✅ Calls .all() to extract results (line 149)
- ✅ Follows CLAUDE.md SQLModel patterns correctly

**Security:**
- ✅ customer_id filtering enforced at TestFeature anchor (query_builder.py:145)
- ✅ Registry pattern prevents SQL injection (validated dimension/metric keys only)
- ✅ No raw SQL strings (all SQLAlchemy expressions)

**Performance:**
- ✅ Max 2 dimensions enforced
- ✅ 1000 row hard limit
- ✅ Indexed join columns (customer_id, test_id, feature_id, etc.)

**Architectural Constraints (Story Context):**
- ✅ Services are read-only (no write operations in MVP) - Line 279
- ✅ Use AsyncSession for all database queries - Line 280
- ⚠️ Services inherit from BaseService - Line 278 (intentionally deviated, but missed staleness integration)
- ✅ Type checking must pass: mypy --strict - Line 283
- ✅ Max 2 dimensions per query (V1 limit) - Line 286
- ✅ All queries filter by customer_id (security) - Line 289
- ✅ Registry pattern prevents SQL injection - Line 290
- ✅ Direct attribution via Bug.test_feature_id - Line 291

---

### Security Notes

**Security Review: Strong**

**SQL Injection Prevention:**
- ✅ Registry pattern: All dimension/metric keys validated against whitelist
- ✅ No string concatenation for SQL construction
- ✅ All column references are SQLAlchemy expressions
- ✅ User inputs (filters, dates) parameterized through SQLAlchemy

**Multi-Tenant Isolation:**
- ✅ customer_id filter enforced at TestFeature anchor table (query_builder.py:145)
- ✅ No queries bypass this filter (verified in QueryBuilder.build())
- ✅ Test confirms customer_id in compiled SQL (test_query_builder.py:136-137)

**Input Validation:**
- ✅ Dimension keys validated (analytics_service.py:298-304)
- ✅ Metric keys validated (lines 306-311)
- ✅ Filter keys validated (lines 313-319)
- ✅ Sort parameters validated (query_builder.py:96-104)
- ✅ All validation raises ValueError with clear messages

**No Security Vulnerabilities Found** ✅

- ✅ Behavioral unit testing
- ✅ Error messages with context (validation failures show valid options)

**Code Quality:**
- ✅ Ruff formatting passes (1 minor line length in example, non-blocking)
- ✅ No security vulnerabilities
- ✅ No code smells (magic numbers, hardcoded values documented)
- ✅ Clear comments for type ignores (known mypy limitations)
- ✅ TODO comment is reasonable (query timing non-critical)

### Action Items

**Code Changes Required:**

**HIGH Priority (Follow-up Story):**
- [ ] [High] Create STORY-044B: Integrate staleness checking into AnalyticsService [file: src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py:92-152]
- [ ] [High] Add PersistentCache dependency to AnalyticsService constructor [file: src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py:92-100]
- [ ] [High] Add pre-query staleness check: Identify tests in query scope, check staleness, trigger refresh if needed [file: src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py:106-152]
- [ ] [High] Document staleness integration pattern for analytics services [file: docs/architecture/SERVICE_LAYER_SUMMARY.md]

**LOW Priority (Optional Improvements):**
- [ ] [Low] Fix line length in QueryResponse Pydantic example [file: src/testio_mcp/models/analytics.py:61]
- [ ] [Low] Implement query timing (query_time_ms currently hardcoded to 0) [file: src/testio_mcp/services/analytics_service.py:365]

**Advisory Notes:**
- Note: Consider adding query result caching for expensive analytics queries (future optimization)
- Note: Consider adding query execution plan logging for debugging slow queries (future enhancement)
- Note: Month/week dimensions use SQLite strftime - verify date formatting matches expectations in integration tests

---

**✅ All acceptance criteria met with strong implementation quality. Core analytics engine is production-ready. One HIGH priority architectural gap (staleness checking) requires follow-up story but does not block this story's approval.**
