Integration tests using Jest and Supertest against a real PostgreSQL database (Neon) to catch real-world issues that mocks would miss.

• Authentication — login success, wrong password, wrong email
• Pending Applications — file upload submission, missing resume validation
• Activation Flow — full end-to-end: submit application → admin approves → token validation → account activation → login
• Jobs — create, edit, delete, and view job listings
• Employer Profile — create and update employer profile
• Email Service — mocked to prevent real emails during CI

Admin accounts are created manually. To log in as an admin, use the following credentials:

To create or update the admin account, run the following SQL:

INSERT INTO users (email, password_hash, role)
VALUES ('admin@example.com', '<bcrypt_hashed_password>', 'admin');

Note: Never store plain-text passwords. Use bcrypt to hash the password before inserting.

To generate a bcrypt hash, run the following in Node.js:

const bcrypt = require('bcrypt');
const hash = await bcrypt.hash('your_password', 10);
console.log(hash);
