# Integration Test Builder

Build comprehensive integration tests for APIs and database flows.

## Test Harness Setup

```typescript
// tests/setup/test-harness.ts
import { PrismaClient } from "@prisma/client";
import { execSync } from "child_process";

export class TestHarness {
  prisma: PrismaClient;

  async setup() {
    // Setup test database
    process.env.DATABASE_URL = process.env.TEST_DATABASE_URL;

    // Run migrations
    execSync("npx prisma migrate deploy");

    // Initialize Prisma client
    this.prisma = new PrismaClient();

    // Clear all data
    await this.clearDatabase();
  }

  async teardown() {
    await this.prisma.$disconnect();
  }

  async clearDatabase() {
    const tables = await this.prisma.$queryRaw<{ tablename: string }[]>`
      SELECT tablename FROM pg_tables WHERE schemaname = 'public'
    `;

    for (const { tablename } of tables) {
      if (tablename !== "_prisma_migrations") {
        await this.prisma.$executeRawUnsafe(
          `TRUNCATE TABLE "${tablename}" CASCADE`
        );
      }
    }
  }

  async seedFixtures() {
    // Seed test data
    await this.prisma.user.create({
      data: {
        email: "[email protected]",
        name: "Test User",
      },
    });
  }
}
```

```typescript
