# Account Creation Testing Guide

This guide provides instructions for testing the account creation functionality and debugging issues.

## Overview

The account creation process involves several components:
1. Frontend OAuth initiation
2. LinkedIn authentication
3. OAuth callback handling
4. Database insertion
5. Account retrieval

## Testing Scripts

### 1. Database Connection Test
**File**: `test_database_connection.py`
**Purpose**: Test basic database connectivity and CRUD operations
**Usage**: 
```bash
cd backend
python test_database_connection.py
```

**Tests Performed**:
- Supabase client initialization
- Basic database connection
- Record insertion, retrieval, and deletion
- Authentication status check

### 2. OAuth Flow Test
**File**: `test_oauth_flow.py`
**Purpose**: Test the complete OAuth flow and account creation process
**Usage**:
```bash
cd backend
python test_oauth_flow.py
```

**Tests Performed**:
- LinkedIn service initialization
- Authorization URL generation
- Account creation flow simulation
- OAuth callback simulation
- Database operations with OAuth data

## Running the Tests

### Prerequisites
1. Ensure you have the required dependencies installed:
   ```bash
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   ```

2. Verify environment variables are set in `.env` file:
   - `SUPABASE_URL`
   - `SUPABASE_KEY`
   - `CLIENT_ID`
   - `CLIENT_SECRET`
   - `REDIRECT_URL`

### Step-by-Step Testing

#### Step 1: Database Connection Test
```bash
cd backend
python test_database_connection.py
```

**Expected Output**:
```
🚀 Starting database connection tests...
🔍 Testing database connection...
✅ Supabase client initialized successfully
✅ Database connection successful
✅ Insert test successful
✅ Retrieve test successful
✅ Delete test successful
🎉 All database tests passed!
```

#### Step 2: OAuth Flow Test
```bash
cd backend
python test_oauth_flow.py
```

**Expected Output**:
```
🚀 Starting OAuth flow tests...
🔍 Testing LinkedIn service...
✅ LinkedIn service initialized successfully
✅ Authorization URL generated successfully
🎉 LinkedIn service test completed successfully!
🔍 Testing account creation flow...
✅ Account insertion response: <response object>
✅ Account inserted successfully with ID: <account_id>
✅ Retrieved 1 accounts for user test_user_123
✅ Account deletion response: <response object>
🎉 Account creation flow test completed successfully!
🔍 Simulating OAuth callback process...
✅ OAuth callback simulation response: <response object>
✅ Response data: [<account_data>]
🎉 OAuth callback simulation completed successfully!
🎉 All tests passed! OAuth flow is working correctly.
```

## Debugging the Account Creation Issue

### Step 1: Check Database Connection
Run the database connection test to ensure:
- Supabase client is properly initialized
- Database operations work correctly
- No permission issues

### Step 2: Check OAuth Configuration
Run the OAuth flow test to verify:
- LinkedIn service is properly configured
- Authorization URL generation works
- Database insertion with OAuth data works

### Step 3: Enhanced Logging
The enhanced logging will help identify issues in the actual flow:

#### Backend Logs
Look for these log messages:
- `🔗 [OAuth] Starting callback for user: <user_id>`
- `🔗 [OAuth] Received data: <data>`
- `🔗 [OAuth] Supabase client available: <boolean>`
- `🔗 [OAuth] Token exchange successful`
- `🔗 [OAuth] User info fetched: <user_info>`
- `🔗 [OAuth] Database response: <response>`
- `🔗 [OAuth] Account linked successfully`

#### Frontend Logs
Look for these console messages:
- `🔗 [Frontend] LinkedIn callback handler started`
- `🔗 [Frontend] URL parameters: {code: '...', state: '...', error: null}`
- `🔗 [Frontend] Dispatching LinkedIn callback action...`
- `🔗 [Frontend] Callback result: {success: true, ...}`

### Step 4: Common Issues and Solutions

#### Issue 1: Database Connection Fails
**Symptoms**: Database connection test fails
**Solutions**:
- Check `SUPABASE_URL` and `SUPABASE_KEY` in `.env` file
- Verify Supabase project is active
- Check network connectivity

#### Issue 2: OAuth Configuration Issues
**Symptoms**: LinkedIn service test fails
**Solutions**:
- Check `CLIENT_ID`, `CLIENT_SECRET`, and `REDIRECT_URL` in `.env` file
- Verify LinkedIn App is properly configured
- Ensure redirect URL is whitelisted in LinkedIn App settings

#### Issue 3: Database Insertion Fails
**Symptoms**: OAuth flow test passes but actual account creation fails
**Solutions**:
- Check RLS policies on `Social_network` table
- Verify user ID mapping between auth and database
- Check for data validation issues

#### Issue 4: Silent Failures
**Symptoms**: No error messages but accounts don't appear
**Solutions**:
- Check enhanced logs for specific error messages
- Verify database response data
- Check for exceptions being caught and suppressed

### Step 5: Manual Testing

#### Test the Complete Flow
1. Start the backend server:
   ```bash
   cd backend
   python app.py
   ```

2. Start the frontend server:
   ```bash
   cd frontend
   npm run dev
   ```

3. Navigate to the application and try to add a LinkedIn account
4. Check the browser console for frontend logs
5. Check the backend logs for detailed debugging information

## Monitoring and Maintenance

### Log Analysis
Monitor these key log messages:
- Successful OAuth callback processing
- Database insertion success/failure
- Error messages and exceptions
- Performance metrics

### Regular Testing
Run the test scripts regularly to ensure:
- Database connectivity remains stable
- OAuth configuration is correct
- No new issues have been introduced

### Performance Monitoring
Track these metrics:
- Account creation success rate
- Database query performance
- OAuth token exchange time
- User authentication time

## Troubleshooting Checklist

### Before Testing
- [ ] Verify all environment variables are set
- [ ] Check Supabase project is active
- [ ] Verify LinkedIn App configuration
