Why This PR Exists

The indexer's correctness depends on Postgres and the Soroban RPC/event pipeline working together — unit tests with in-memory fakes (InMemoryIndexerStore, InMemoryCommitmentIndex) can't catch bugs in the real SQL (transactions, upserts, schema) or in how a mock Soroban contract event decodes and lands in the database. #23 asks for integration tests that spin up an ephemeral, Dockerized Postgres via Testcontainers, feed it mock Soroban events through the indexer, and verify the database end-to-end.

What Was Wrong

There was no self-contained way to run a real-Postgres test for the indexer. The two existing DB-backed tests (src/indexer/commitments.test.ts, src/indexer/listener.test.ts) are gated on process.env.DATABASE_URL and silently SKIP unless a Postgres instance is already running and reachable — locally that means nothing runs by default, and in CI it depends on a services: Postgres container wired up separately from the test. Neither exercises the full path from a mock Soroban contract event through FinalityIndexer → the commitment-indexing hook → the commitment_index table in one shot.

There was also a pre-existing, non-functional backend/jest.config.js (added in #40, the DLQ PR) that was never wired to an npm script and never had jest/ts-jest installed — dead config nobody could have run.

What This PR Does

Adds a self-contained integration suite that needs nothing but Docker:

  • backend/tests/setup.ts — startIntegrationDatabase() / stopIntegrationDatabase(): boots a postgres:16 Testcontainer, applies just the two schema files the indexer pipeline touches (003_deterministic_indexer.sql, 005_commitment_index.sql — no TimescaleDB extension needed for this path), and returns a pg.Pool pointed at it. Reusable by any future integration test file.
  • backend/tests/integration/indexer.test.ts — builds mock Soroban commitment_created contract events (real base64 XDR via @stellar/stellar-sdk, same shape the on-chain registry emits — see contracts/registry/src/events.rs), runs them through a real FinalityIndexer + PostgresIndexerStore + PostgresCommitmentIndex against the container, and asserts against the actual tables (indexed_ledgers, commitment_index), not just the store abstraction. 3 tests:
    • indexes a single mock event end-to-end and verifies both indexed_ledgers and commitment_index rows
    • indexes two ledgers and verifies the reverse index accumulates aparty to both commitments shows both)
    • a ledger with no decodable commitment events still commits to the checkpoint, but leaves commitment_index empty (negative case) - backend/package.json — new npm run test:integration script.
  • .github/workflows/ci.yml — new step in the backend-tests job running npm run test:integration after the existing npm test. No services: entry needed — Testcontainers talks to the Docker daemon already on ubuntu-latest d
  • .gitignore — added dist-integration-test/ (this test's compiled output directory, mirroring the existing dist-indexer-test//dist-relayer-test/ entries).
    Also fixes (labeled aside, out of the issue's literal scope but required to make this work cleanly): deleted the dead backend/jest.config.js from Implement Dead Letter Queue for Indexer Webhooks #40. It predates this PR, was never wired to any script, and — I verified this empiri but cannot work in this repo: @stellar/stellar-sdk transitivelyrequires @noble/hashes, which is pure ESM ("type": "module", no CJS build). Plain Node 22+/24 handles that fine via native require(esm), but Jest's own CJS modulloader does not, so jest/ts-jest throws SyntaxError: Cannot use impoule the moment any indexer code path (which all lazy-import() theSDK) is loaded. That's exactly why every existing DB-integration test in this repo (commitments.test.ts, listener.test.ts, cagg.test.ts) already uses node:test, not Jest — I followed that established convention rather than the isnstruction, since Jest is demonstrably incompatible with thiscodebase's Soroban SDK dependency. @testcontainers/postgresql was already a devDependency (added alongside cagg.test.ts, which is itself dead — not wired into any script either — but that's pre-existing and out of scope here), so neded at all.

Testing

All commands below were run against a clean checkout (git worktree + npm ci || npm install fallback, since the root lockfile has apre-existing, unrelated drift against packages/cli that already forces every workspace's CI install step through that fallback today — same issue documented in
e2e-sandbox.yml's frontend step, not something this PR introduces or

  • npm test (existing test:indexer + test:relayer, node:test) → 83 teipped (the 4 skips are the pre-existing DATABASE_URL-gated tests,unrelated to this PR), confirming no regression from removing jest.config.js or adding the new tsconfig.
  • Verified clean teardown directly: docker ps -a before/after the rues:16 container and no leftover testcontainers-ryuk-* reapercontainer.
  • Compiled the new suite (tsc -p tsconfig.integration-test.json) wit
  • The new files pass this repo's own lint-staged (eslint --fix / prettier --write ran clean on commit). - I do not have a way to trigger an actual GitHub Actions run from hvironment), so the new CI step itself hasn't been observed green inActions — only reproduced command-for-command locally per the above. Everything else in ci.yml's backend-tests job (lint, npm test) was also re-clean checkout and passed.
    🚫 Out of Scope
    - Did not wire cagg.test.ts into any script or fix its own pool-sing.env.TIMESCALEDB_* after db/timescale.ts has already created itsmodule-level Pool from those env vars, so it silently connects to the wrong database) — pre-existing, unrelated to the indexer pipeline this issdeserves its own PR.
  • Did not touch the existing DATABASE_URL-gated tests in commitments.test.ts / listener.test.ts — they cover different (still valid) scenarios areplace them.
  • Did not fix the root package-lock.json / packages/cli workspace drift that makes npm ci fail across every workspace in this repo (backend, frotoday — pre-existing on main, already silently tolerated by every CIll fallback, and out of scope for an indexer-testing issue.
  • Did not add TimescaleDB-hypertable coverage (migrations 001/007) since the indexer pipeline under test here never touches those tables.
    Known gaps
  • Only one scenario type is covered (commitment_created) since that's the event the indexer's commitment-reverse-index actually consumes today; attested/disputed/resolved events aren't decoded into any table yet there's nothing to assert against for those.
  • test:integration boots one container per describe block (via before/after), not a single container shared across all future integration test files. Fine for one file today; if more integration test files are added, worth revisiticontainer-startup cost independently.

Closes #23

Summary by CodeRabbit

    • Added comprehensive backend integration coverage for ledger indexing, checkpoint progression, commitment tracking, and ledgers without commitment events.
    • Integration tests now use isolated, temporary PostgreSQL databases for more reliable results.
    • Added automated validation for single- and multi-ledger indexing scenarios.
    • Updated wallet and encrypted-request end-to-end test coverage.
  • Chores

    • Added tooling and build configuration for running integration tests locally and in CI.
    • Excluded generated integration-test output from version control.
    • Updated contract workspace configuration.

…ipeline

Boots an ephemeral postgres:16 container, feeds mock Soroban
commitment_created events through FinalityIndexer + PostgresIndexerStore
+ PostgresCommitmentIndex, and asserts against the real indexed_ledgers
and commitment_index tables. Uses node:test (not Jest) to match the
rest of the backend's DB-integration tests, since Jest's CJS loader
cannot load @stellar/stellar-sdk's ESM-only @noble/hashes dependency.
Removes the dead, never-wired backend/jest.config.js left over from LynxXProtocol#40.

Closes LynxXProtocol#23

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The backend adds Testcontainers-based PostgreSQL integration tests for FinalityIndexer, a dedicated TypeScript build, and CI execution. The contracts workspace registers fraud_verifier, and the frontend E2E flow updates its Freighter mock and wallet setup.

Changes

Indexer integration testing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Database test harness
backend/tests/setup.ts, backend/tsconfig.integration-test.json
Integration tests start PostgreSQL 16 in a temporary Testcontainer, apply indexer migrations, and manage pool and container cleanup.
Indexer integration scenarios
backend/tests/integration/indexer.test.ts
Tests validate single-ledger indexing, multi-ledger checkpoint advancement, shared-address accumulation, and ledgers without decodable commitment events.
Integration test execution
backend/package.json, .github/workflows/ci.yml, .gitignore
The backend adds a compile-and-run script, ignores generated output, and runs integration tests conditionally in CI using Docker.

Contracts workspace configuration

Layer / File(s) Summary
fraud_verifier workspace registration
contracts/Cargo.toml, contracts/fraud_verifier/Cargo.toml
The Cargo workspace registers fraud_verifier, and the crate-specific release profile is removed.

Frontend E2E updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Freighter mock and validation flow
frontend/e2e/commitment-flow.spec.ts
The Freighter mock returns signed blob and message fields. The validation test uses connectFreighter, and the polling assertion is reformatted.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 129c4

This change adds isolated integration-test coverage and CI execution without any actionable merge-blocking risk remaining beyond normal checks and review.

Comment thread backend/tests/setup.ts Resolved
startIntegrationDatabase left the Postgres container and pg.Pool
orphaned if readFile or pool.query threw partway through applying
migrations. Close/stop them in a catch and rethrow, so a broken
migration never leaks a container.

Verified by temporarily pointing INDEXER_MIGRATIONS at a nonexistent
file: the run fails as expected and docker ps shows no leftover
postgres:16 or testcontainers-ryuk container afterward.

Mac-5 and others added 4 commits August 25, 2026 18:56
The previous fix awaited pool.end() then container.stop() sequentially
in the catch block: a rejection from pool.end() would skip
container.stop() entirely (leaking the container), and either
cleanup's rejection would replace the original migration error,
masking the real root cause.

Use Promise.allSettled so both cleanups are always attempted
independently of each other's outcome, and always rethrow the
original setup error.

Verified with the same broken-migration-filename smoke test as the
prior fix: the original ENOENT still surfaces, and docker ps shows no
leftover postgres:16/testcontainers-ryuk container afterward. Did not
add dedicated unit tests mocking pool.end()/container.stop() rejection
-- this is test-infrastructure code and Promise.allSettled's
independent-settlement guarantee is a language primitive, not custom
logic; injecting mockable pool/container objects into
startIntegrationDatabase to unit-test it would be a disproportionate
restructuring of a test helper for the benefit gained.

zk/test/crosscheck.test.ts runs `cargo run --bin hash_helper` from
contracts/fraud_verifier, but that crate was never added to
contracts/Cargo.toml's workspace.members -- it sits inside the
workspace's directory tree without being declared a member, so Cargo
refused to build it standalone ("current package believes it's in a
workspace when it's not"), failing the zk test suite in CI.

Also drops fraud_verifier's own [profile.release] block: now that it's
a workspace member, Cargo ignores per-member profiles in favor of the
workspace root's (which already has identical settings) and was
emitting a "profiles for the non root package will be ignored"
warning.

Verified safe before applying, since `cargo clippy --workspace` and
`cargo build --target wasm32-unknown-unknown` in CI now cover this
crate too:
- cargo build --target wasm32-unknown-unknown --release (whole
  workspace, matches the contract-tests CI job) succeeds cleanly with
  fraud_verifier included.
- cargo test --workspace --features
  registry/wasm-tests,timelock/wasm-tests passes, including
  fraud_verifier's own 2 unit tests.
- cargo fmt --all -- --check and cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets
  -- -D warnings are already failing on main today, entirely within
  state_channel -- pre-existing, unrelated to fraud_verifier, which
  contributes zero new diffs/errors to either. Not fixed here (out of
  scope, different crate, different bug class).
- zk/test/crosscheck.test.ts now passes for real: 6/6, including the
  previously-failing "Rust and TypeScript produce identical hashes"
  case.

…ases in e2e test

Two issues in commitment-flow.spec.ts, both pre-existing on main and
both blocking this branch's commit via the repo's eslint pre-commit
hook (no-duplicate-case is an error, not auto-fixable):

1. The "WASM validation failure blocks transaction simulation and
   wallet submission" test connected the wallet twice: three inline
   steps (Connect Wallet -> Freighter -> assert address), then an
   immediate second call to connectFreighter() doing the same thing.
   Once connected, WalletConnectButton's label is no longer "Connect
   Wallet" -- clicking it reopens WalletConnectModal in its
   already-connected branch (address details + Disconnect button),
   which never renders a "Freighter" button. The second
   connectFreighter() call then hung on
   getByRole('button', { name: /Freighter/ }) for the full 30s
   timeout, on every retry, on both chromium and firefox. Removed the
   redundant inline block, matching the same cleanup already done for
   the "encrypted commitment" test elsewhere in this file.

2. installFreighterMock's postMessage switch had accumulated
   duplicate/dead case labels from what looks like several merges that
   each added their own mock handler without removing the prior one:
   - A first 'REQUEST_SIGN_MESSAGE' arm referenced `txXdr`, a const
     scoped to an earlier case block -- not just dead code, but would
     have thrown ReferenceError had it ever actually been reached.
   - Two duplicate 'SUBMIT_TRANSACTION' arms after the first (real)
     one were unreachable dead code (JS switch takes the first
     matching label).
   Kept only the first (reachable, correct) SUBMIT_TRANSACTION/
   REQUEST_SIGN_TRANSACTION arm and the well-formed SUBMIT_BLOB/
   REQUEST_SIGN_MESSAGE arm; deleted the broken/dead ones.

Verified: `npx eslint e2e/commitment-flow.spec.ts` clean (was 3
no-duplicate-case errors before). Full frontend e2e suite: 30/30 pass
on both chromium and firefox (up from 28 pass / 2 fail in the CI run
that reported the original timeout). `npm run lint` (oxlint) exit 0,
no errors, no new warnings from this file.
