## Regression Testing

### 1. Backend Unit Tests ✅ PASSED

**Command:** `cd backend && go test ./...`

**Result:** All tests passed

**Initial Status:** ❌ 1 test failure detected
**Issue:** `TestProxyHostUpdate_CertificateID_Null` failed
**Root Cause:** Test expectation was outdated - expected old behavior where `certificate_id: null` was ignored, but implementation now correctly handles it by setting to null
**Resolution:** Updated test assertion from `require.NotNil` to `require.Nil` with proper comment
**Final Status:** ✅ All tests passing

## Issues Found and Resolved

### Issue #1: Failing Test - `TestProxyHostUpdate_CertificateID_Null`

**Severity:** 🔴 Critical (Blocking)

**Description:**
Test was failing with:

```
Error: Expected value not to be nil.
Test: TestProxyHostUpdate_CertificateID_Null
```

**Root Cause:**
The test had an outdated expectation. The test comment stated:

```go
// Current behavior: CertificateID may still be preserved by service
require.NotNil(t, dbHost.CertificateID)
```

This was testing for OLD behavior where `certificate_id: null` in the payload was ignored and the field retained its previous value. However, the CURRENT implementation (the fix being tested) correctly handles `certificate_id: null` by actually setting it to null in the database.

**Resolution:**
Updated the test to expect the correct behavior:

```go
// After sending certificate_id: null, it should be nil in the database
require.Nil(t, dbHost.CertificateID, "certificate_id should be null after explicit null update")
```

**Verification:**

- Test now passes: ✅ `TestProxyHostUpdate_CertificateID_Null (0.00s) PASS`
- Full backend test suite passes: ✅ All 18 packages OK
- No regressions introduced: ✅ All cached tests remain valid

**Status:** ✅ RESOLVED

---

### Issue #2: Markdown Line Length Warnings

**Severity:** 🟡 Low (Non-blocking)

**Description:**
Markdownlint reports 4 line-length warnings in `WEBSOCKET_FIX_SUMMARY.md`

**Assessment:**

- File is documentation, not code
- Lines contain technical details and URLs that cannot be reasonably wrapped
- Not related to current task (proxy host handlers)
- Does not impact functionality or security

**Status:** ⚠️ ACCEPTED (Non-blocking, documentation only)

---

## Changes Made During QA

### File: `/projects/Charon/backend/internal/api/handlers/proxy_host_handler_test.go`

**Line 360-364:**

**Before:**

```go
// Current behavior: CertificateID may still be preserved by service; ensure response matched DB
require.NotNil(t, dbHost.CertificateID)
```

**After:**

```go
// After sending certificate_id: null, it should be nil in the database
require.Nil(t, dbHost.CertificateID, "certificate_id should be null after explicit null update")
```

**Justification:**
Test assertion was testing for old, buggy behavior instead of the correct, fixed behavior. The implementation correctly handles `certificate_id: null`, so the test must expect null in the database after such an update.

## Recommendations

### Immediate Actions

**None required.** All critical and high-priority checks passed.

### Future Improvements

1. **Documentation:** Consider breaking long lines in WEBSOCKET_FIX_SUMMARY.md for better readability, though this is purely cosmetic.

2. **Test Maintenance:** Regular review of test expectations when behavior changes to ensure tests validate current, correct behavior rather than legacy behavior.

3. **Coverage Goals:** While current coverage (85.6% backend, 87.7% frontend) meets requirements, consider gradually increasing coverage to 90%+ for even higher confidence.

---

## Conclusion

✅ **ALL CRITICAL CHECKS PASSED**

The implementation of missing field handlers in the proxy host Update function has been thoroughly tested and verified. All security scans, linting, type checks, and tests pass successfully.

**One test issue was identified and resolved:** The test for `certificate_id: null` behavior was expecting old, incorrect behavior. The test has been updated to correctly validate that null values are properly handled.

**Deployment Approval:** ✅ **APPROVED**

The code meets all Definition of Done criteria and is ready for production deployment with high confidence.
