## Notes

### Test Fixtures

All tests use consistent fixtures for:
- Authentication headers
- Sample requests
- Test database
- MCP client instances

### Test Markers

Tests use pytest markers for categorization:
- `@pytest.mark.asyncio` - Async tests
- `@pytest.mark.slow` - Slow-running tests
- `@pytest.mark.parametrize` - Parameterized tests

### Performance Considerations

Load tests are designed to:
- Measure realistic performance
- Detect resource leaks
- Validate scalability
- Identify bottlenecks

### Known Limitations

Some tests are placeholders pending:
- Actual HTTP router implementation
- MCP HTTP app integration
- SSE endpoint implementation
- Production auth provider

These will be completed in subsequent implementation phases.
