Vultr DNS MCP Test Suite - Complete Fix Package

🎯 Quick Solution

I've analyzed the broken tests in the vultr-dns-mcp repository and created a complete fix package. Here's how to apply it:

One-Command Fix (if you have access to this directory):

# From your vultr-dns-mcp repository root:
bash /home/rpm/claude/vultr-dns-mcp-fix/fix_tests.sh

Manual Fix (recommended):

# 1. Navigate to your repository
cd /path/to/vultr-dns-mcp

# 2. Backup current files
cp tests/conftest.py tests/conftest.py.backup
cp tests/test_mcp_server.py tests/test_mcp_server.py.backup

# 3. Copy fixed files
cp /home/rpm/claude/vultr-dns-mcp-fix/fixed_conftest.py tests/conftest.py
cp /home/rpm/claude/vultr-dns-mcp-fix/fixed_test_mcp_server.py tests/test_mcp_server.py

# 4. Install dependencies
pip install -e .[dev]

# 5. Run tests
pytest tests/ -v

🚀 What Gets Fixed

Before (Broken):

# Incorrect async pattern
async def test_tool(self, mcp_server):
    result = await client.call_tool("tool_name", {})
    # ❌ Missing proper async context
    # ❌ No mock configuration  
    # ❌ Incomplete error handling

After (Fixed):

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_tool(self, mock_vultr_client):
    with patch('vultr_dns_mcp.server.VultrDNSServer', return_value=mock_vultr_client):
        server = create_mcp_server("test-api-key")
        async with Client(server) as client:  # ✅ Proper context manager
            result = await client.call_tool("tool_name", {})
            assert result is not None  # ✅ Proper assertions
            mock_vultr_client.method.assert_called_once()  # ✅ Mock verification

🧪 Expected Test Results

🔧 Key Technical Fixes

1. Fixed Async Patterns

• Proper @pytest.mark.asyncio usage
• Correct async with Client(server) as client: context managers
• Fixed await patterns throughout

2. Improved Mock Configuration

• Complete AsyncMock setup with proper specs
• All Vultr API methods properly mocked
• Realistic API response structures

3. Better Error Handling

• Comprehensive error scenario testing
• Graceful handling of API failures
• Proper exception testing patterns

4. Updated Dependencies

• Fixed pytest-asyncio configuration
• Proper FastMCP version requirements
• Added missing test dependencies

🆘 Troubleshooting

If tests still fail:

1. Check installation:

   pip list | grep -E "(pytest|fastmcp|httpx)"
   

2. Verify imports:

   python -c "from vultr_dns_mcp.server import create_mcp_server"
   

3. Run single test:

   pytest tests/test_mcp_server.py::TestMCPTools::test_list_dns_domains_tool -vvv
   

4. Check pytest config:

   pytest --collect-only tests/
   

Common Issues:

• ImportError: Run pip install -e . from repository root
• AsyncioError: Ensure asyncio_mode = "auto" in pyproject.toml
• MockError: Check that fixed_conftest.py was properly copied

📊 Success Metrics

You'll know the fix worked when:

• ✅ Zero test failures in MCP test suite
• ✅ All async tests run without warnings
• ✅ Mock verification passes
• ✅ Coverage >80% on core modules
• ✅ Integration tests complete end-to-end

🎉 Summary

This fix package addresses all the major issues in the vultr-dns-mcp test suite:

1. Fixes critical async/await patterns that were causing test failures
2. Provides comprehensive mock configuration matching the Vultr API
3. Adds proper error handling tests for robustness
4. Updates all import statements to work correctly
5. Includes complete documentation for maintenance
