## ADDED Requirements

### Requirement: Backend API integration tests exist
The system SHALL have integration tests for the backend API that verify endpoints work correctly with real or test database.

#### Scenario: API endpoint returns expected response
- **WHEN** an API endpoint is called via HTTP request
- **THEN** the response SHALL match expected status code and body structure

#### Scenario: API endpoint persists data
- **WHEN** a POST or PUT request is made
- **THEN** the data SHALL be persisted and retrievable via GET request

#### Scenario: API handles authentication
- **WHEN** a protected endpoint is called with or without valid authentication
- **THEN** the response SHALL enforce authentication rules correctly

### Requirement: Frontend-backend integration tests exist
The system SHALL have tests that verify the frontend can communicate with the backend API.

#### Scenario: Frontend fetches data from backend
- **WHEN** the frontend makes an API call to the backend
- **THEN** the backend SHALL receive the request and return appropriate data

#### Scenario: Frontend sends data to backend
- **WHEN** the frontend submits form data to the backend
- **THEN** the backend SHALL process the data and return success or error response

### Requirement: Test database is isolated
The system SHALL use an isolated test database for integration tests.

#### Scenario: Test database is separate from development database
- **WHEN** integration tests run
- **THEN** they SHALL connect to a test database, not the development database

#### Scenario: Test database is reset between test runs
- **WHEN** integration tests complete
- **THEN** the test database state SHALL be cleaned up to ensure test isolation

### Requirement: Integration tests can run in CI
The system SHALL support running integration tests in CI environment with test infrastructure.

#### Scenario: Backend and database start for tests
- **WHEN** integration tests are executed in CI
- **THEN** the backend and test database SHALL start automatically before tests

#### Scenario: Tests use correct environment configuration
- **WHEN** tests run in CI environment
- **THEN** they SHALL use CI-specific configuration (test database URLs, test auth secrets)
