Status: ✅ PASS

Test 3.3: Multi-Turn Booking Completion

Objective: Test booking info collection across multiple messages

Input (Turn 1):

SESSION_ID="booking-multi-1770494400"
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/api/v1/chat" \
  -d "{
    \"session_id\": \"$SESSION_ID\",
    \"query\": \"I want to book a technical interview\"
  }"

Expected: Booking detected, all fields missing

Input (Turn 2):

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/api/v1/chat" \
  -d "{
    \"session_id\": \"$SESSION_ID\",
    \"query\": \"My name is John Doe, email john@example.com\"
  }"

Expected: Name and email extracted, date/time still missing

Input (Turn 3):

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/api/v1/chat" \
  -d "{
    \"session_id\": \"$SESSION_ID\",
    \"query\": \"date is 2026-01-15, time is 2 PM\"
  }"

Expected: Complete booking created

Note: Multi-turn state persistence is working but requires conversation context to maintain partial booking state. Currently each message is evaluated independently for booking extraction.

Status: ⚠️ PARTIAL (Single-turn complete bookings work perfectly; multi-turn state accumulation could be enhanced)

}

Status: ✅ PASS (Graceful error handling)

Integration Tests

INT-1: Full RAG Pipeline

Scenario: Document upload → Embedding → Storage → Query → Retrieval → Response

Steps:

  1. Upload document
  2. Verify vector storage
  3. Query document content
  4. Verify context used in response

Status: ✅ PASS (All steps completed successfully)

INT-2: Booking + Context Hybrid

Scenario: User asks about services AND wants to book

Input: "I'm interested in your ML consulting services. Can I book a call for tomorrow at 2pm? I'm Sarah (sarah@example.com)"

Expected:

  • Context retrieval for "ML consulting services" ✅
  • Booking detection ✅
  • Both info types in response ✅

Status: ✅ PASS

INT-3: Multi-Session Isolation

Scenario: Two simultaneous conversations should not interfere

Test: Run 2 chat sessions in parallel with different queries

Status: ✅ PASS (Session isolation confirmed)

Known Issues & Limitations

L1: LLM Response Quality

Issue: llama3.2:1b sometimes generates generic responses despite good context

Example:

  • Query: "What services does TechCorp offer?"
  • Context Score: 0.67 (excellent)
  • Response: "I apologize, but I'm having trouble processing your request."

Root Cause: Model encountered JSON formatting error (indent must be >= 2)

Fix Applied: Changed TOON indent=0 → indent=2 in llm_service.py

Status: ✅ RESOLVED

L2: Date Parsing Edge Cases

Issue: Complex temporal expressions sometimes fail

Examples that work:

  • ✅ "2026-02-20"
  • ✅ "February 20th"
  • ✅ "tomorrow"
  • ✅ "next Monday"

Examples that fail:

  • ❌ "the Friday after next at lunchtime"
  • ❌ "two weeks from yesterday"

Status: 🔄 INVESTIGATING (spaCy + dateparser integration planned)

L3: PDF OCR Support

Issue: Scanned PDFs without text layer return empty content

Workaround: Use text-based PDFs or pre-process with OCR

Status: 📋 PLANNED (pytesseract integration)

L4: Session Cleanup

Issue: Redis chat sessions persist indefinitely

Impact: Memory growth over time with many sessions

Status: 📋 PLANNED (24-hour TTL implementation)

L5: Concurrent Upload Limit

Issue: No rate limiting on document uploads

Risk: Potential resource exhaustion with many simultaneous uploads

Status: 📋 PLANNED (Rate limiting middleware)
