Quote Service Test Plan

Quote Service Test Plan

Version: 3.0 Last Updated: December 31, 2025 Owner: Solution Architect & Testing Team Architecture Doc: 30-QUOTE-SERVICE-ARCHITECTURE.mdPRIMARY REFERENCE Review Enhancements: 26.1-TEST-PLAN-ENHANCEMENTS.md (Critical additions from Gemini/ChatGPT reviews)

1. Executive Summary

The Quote Service is the core engine of the HFT trading pipeline, responsible for sub-10ms quote calculation with 95%+ accuracy. This test plan ensures production readiness through comprehensive unit, integration, load, and HFT-specific testing.

Key Performance Targets (Updated with Critical Enhancements):

  • Latency:
    • HTTP: p50 <1ms (cached), p95 <10ms (uncached), p99 <50ms
    • Shared Memory Read: p99 <1μs (100-500x faster than gRPC)
    • Arbitrage Detection: p95 <50μs (scanner integration)
  • Throughput: 1000 req/s sustained, 10,000 req/s peak
  • Availability: 99.99% uptime (52 minutes downtime/year) - Enhanced with Redis persistence
  • Cache Hit Rate: >95% (enhanced with pre-computation)
  • Quote Accuracy: >95% vs actual execution (enhanced with validation layer)
  • Cold Start Recovery: <3s (vs 30s with Redis persistence)

Test Coverage Target: >80% code coverage, 100% critical path coverage

New Critical Enhancement Tests (See Sections 2.7-2.12):

  • Shared Memory IPC: Ultra-low-latency quote access for Rust scanners (<1μs reads)
  • PostgreSQL + Redis Route Storage: Three-tier storage (Shared memory → Redis → PostgreSQL)
  • Quote Pre-computation: Background refresh for 99.9%+ cache hit rate
  • Parallel Quote Calculation: Worker pool pattern for 5x speedup
  • Redis Quote Persistence: <3s cold start recovery from snapshots
  • Circuit Breaker Per-Quoter: Isolated failure handling per external provider
  • Quote Validation Layer: Price manipulation detection and outlier filtering
  • Quote Versioning: Staleness detection with atomic version counters
  • Torn Read Prevention (ChatGPT Critical #1): Double-read verification for correctness
  • Confidence Scoring (ChatGPT Critical #3): 5-factor deterministic algorithm
  • 1s AMM Refresh (Gemini Enhancement): 10× faster opportunity capture
  • Parallel Paired Quotes (ChatGPT Exceptional): Eliminate fake arbitrage
  • Explicit Timeouts (ChatGPT Critical #2): Non-blocking local-first emission

    }
}

func TestQuoteStaleness(t *testing.T) {
    quote := &domain.Quote{
        GeneratedAt: time.Now().Add(-8 * time.Second), // 8s ago

2.8 Torn Read Prevention Tests (Review Enhancement) ⭐ CRITICAL

Priority: P0 - CORRECTNESS Estimated Effort: 4 hours Review Source: ChatGPT critique #1 Design Doc: 30.2-SHARED-MEMORY-HYBRID-CHANGE-DETECTION.md

Purpose

Validate that the shared memory reader’s double-read verification protocol prevents torn reads (reading partially-written structs) under concurrent write pressure.

Test Cases

Test 2.8.1: No Torn Reads Under Heavy Contention

Scenario: Multiple concurrent writers (1000 writes/sec) while readers continuously poll

Setup:

// 10 writer threads
for i in 0..10 {
    spawn(move || {
        for j in 0..100 {
            writer.write_quote(i, create_test_quote(j));
            thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(10)); // 100 writes/sec per thread
        }
    });
}

// 5 reader threads
for _ in 0..5 {
    spawn(move || {
        for _ in 0..10_000 {
            let quotes = reader.read_changed_quotes();
            validate_no_torn_reads(&quotes);
        }
    });
}

Validation:

fn validate_no_torn_reads(quotes: &[(u32, QuoteMetadata)]) {
    for (idx, quote) in quotes {
        let v1 = quote.version.load(Ordering::Acquire);

        // ✅ Version must be even (readable)
        assert_eq!(v1 % 2, 0, "Torn read detected: odd version");

        // ✅ All fields must be consistent
        assert!(quote.output_amount > 0, "Invalid output amount");
        assert!(quote.price_impact_bps < 10000, "Invalid price impact");

        // ✅ Oracle price must be valid
        assert!(quote.oracle_price_usd > 0.0, "Invalid oracle price");
    }
}

Assertions:

  • ✅ 0 torn reads in 50,000 total reads
  • ✅ All versions are even (readable state)
  • ✅ All field values are valid (no corruption)
  • ✅ No panics or crashes

Acceptance Criteria:

  • Pass: 0 torn reads detected
  • Fail: Any torn read (odd version or corrupted data)

Test 2.8.2: Retry Mechanism Under Active Writes

Scenario: Reader attempts to read while writer is actively writing (odd version)

Validation Pattern:

fn read_quote_safe(&self, quote: &QuoteMetadata) -> Option<QuoteMetadata> {
    let mut retry_count = 0;

    for _ in 0..10 {  // Max 10 retries
        let v1 = quote.version.load(Ordering::Acquire);

        if v1 % 2 != 0 {
            retry_count += 1;
            std::hint::spin_loop();
            continue;  // Retry if odd (writing)
        }

        let quote_copy = /* copy struct */;
        let v2 = quote.version.load(Ordering::Acquire);

        if v1 == v2 {
            METRICS.record_retry_count(retry_count);
            return Some(quote_copy);  // ✅ Success
        }

        retry_count += 1;
    }

    None  // Failed after 10 retries
}

Assertions:

  • ✅ 100% success rate (no None returns)
  • ✅ Average retry count < 3
  • ✅ p99 retry count < 10
  • ✅ Total latency < 500ns (p99)

Test 2.8.3: Performance Under No Contention

oracleFactor := 1.0

// 4. Provider Reliability: local = 100% → 1.0 (weight 10%)
providerFactor := 1.0

// 5. Slippage vs Depth: 0.2% in 5000 SOL → expected = actual → 1.0 (weight 10%)
slippageFactor := 1.0

// Weighted sum
confidence := 0.95*0.30 + 1.0*0.20 + 1.0*0.30 + 1.0*0.10 + 1.0*0.10
            = 0.285 + 0.20 + 0.30 + 0.10 + 0.10
            = 0.985

Assertions:

  • confidence >= 0.95 (high confidence)

    // Calculate 100 times
    scores := make([]float64, 100)
    for i := 0; i < 100; i++ {
        scores[i] = calc.Calculate(quote, oracle)
    }

    // All scores must be identical
    for i := 1; i < 100; i++ {
        assert.Equal(t, scores[0], scores[i],
            "Confidence calculation is not deterministic")
    }
}

Assertions:

  • ✅ Rate limiting protects against abuse
  • ✅ Graceful degradation during failures
  • ✅ Observability: metrics, logs, traces

7. Test Automation

7.1 Test Frameworks

Go Testing:

  • Standard library: testing package
  • Assertions: github.com/stretchr/testify
  • Mocking: github.com/golang/mock
  • HTTP testing: net/http/httptest

Load Testing:

  • k6 (Grafana k6)
  • Artillery (optional alternative)

Observability:

  • Prometheus test queries
  • Grafana test dashboards
  • Jaeger trace validation

7.2 Test Utilities

Mock RPC Client:

type MockRPCClient struct {
    mock.Mock
}

func (m *MockRPCClient) GetAccountInfo(ctx context.Context, pubkey string) (*rpc.AccountInfo, error) {
    args := m.Called(ctx, pubkey)
    return args.Get(0).(*rpc.AccountInfo), args.Error(1)
}

Test Data Generators:

func GenerateTestQuoteRequest() *QuoteRequest {
    return &QuoteRequest{
        InputMint:  testutil.SOL_MINT,
        OutputMint: testutil.USDC_MINT,
        Amount:     rand.Uint64() % 10_000_000_000,
    }
}

Benchmark Helpers:

func BenchmarkWithMetrics(b *testing.B, fn func()) {
    start := time.Now()
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        fn()
    }
    elapsed := time.Since(start)

    b.ReportMetric(float64(elapsed.Nanoseconds())/float64(b.N), "ns/op")
}

10.2 Troubleshooting

Test Failure: “Redis connection refused”

  • Solution: Start Redis with docker-compose up -d redis

Test Failure: “RPC timeout”

  • Solution: Use mock RPC client or increase timeout

Load Test Failure: “Too many open files”

  • Solution: Increase ulimit: ulimit -n 10000

Flaky Test

  • Solution: Add retries with exponential backoff, or use t.Skip() if environmental
