Analyze failure root cause 2. Create minimal test case 3. Fix underlying code issue 4. Add regression test 5. Verify fix passes all related tests ### For Coverage Gaps: 1. Identify uncovered code paths 2. Create test case for path 3. Add edge case tests 4. Verify coverage increases to 100% ### For Trading Logic Issues: 1. Review algorithm correctness 2. Add unit tests for calculations 3. Add integration tests with mock data 4. Validate against expected outputs 5. Test edge cases (zero amounts, extreme prices, etc.) ### For Production Config Issues: 1. Review configuration files 2. Add validation logic 3. Create integration tests 4. Document all settings 5. Create example configs --- ## Success Criteria ### โœ… Tests - [ ] 100% of tests passing - [ ] 100% code coverage - [ ] All security checks passing - [ ] No lint warnings ### โœ… Trading Logic - [ ] Opportunity detection working - [ ] Profit calculations accurate - [ ] Gas estimation correct - [ ] Slippage protection active - [ ] Flash loans integrated ### โœ… Production Ready - [ ] All configuration documented - [ ] Error handling comprehensive - [ ] Logging complete - [ ] Monitoring setup - [ ] Health checks active - [ ] Graceful shutdown ### โœ… Performance - [ ] Sub-second opportunity detection - [ ] Sub-second transaction building - [ ] Memory usage < 500MB - [ ] CPU usage reasonable - [ ] Network requests optimized --- ## Timeline | Phase | Task | Estimated | Status | |-------|------|-----------|--------| | 1 | Run tests | 10 min | โณ | | 2 | Analyze results | 15 min | โณ | | 3 | Code review | 30 min | ๐Ÿ“‹ | | 4 | Fix issues | 1-2 hours | ๐Ÿ“‹ | | 5 | Verify fixes | 20 min | ๐Ÿ“‹ | | 6 | Integration test | 15 min | ๐Ÿ“‹ | | 7 | Run bot & analyze | 30 min | ๐Ÿ“‹ | --- ## Reports to Generate After audit completion: 1. **Test Coverage Report** - Overall coverage percentage - Coverage by package - Uncovered lines - Recommendations 2. **Code Quality Report** - Security scan results - Lint warnings/errors - Complexity metrics - Recommendations 3. **Trading Logic Report** - Algorithm validation - Test results for key paths - Edge case testing - Profit calculation validation 4. **Production Readiness Report** - Configuration completeness - Error handling review - Performance metrics - Security checklist - Deployment readiness --- ## Next Steps 1. **Wait for test results** - Monitor `podman compose up test-unit` 2. **Analyze failures** - Review any failing tests 3. **Fix issues** - Address all identified problems 4. **Run full audit** - Execute complete test suite 5. **Generate report** - Document findings 6. **Deploy & test** - Run bot with full logging 7. **Validate trading** - Ensure proper opportunity detection --- Generated: 2025-11-06 Status: IN PROGRESS Next: Monitor test results and proceed with audit phases
