Known Issues from Previous Testing

Issue #1: TUI Auto-Select Limitation (DOCUMENTED)

Severity: Minor
Location: Interactive mode with --auto-select
Description: TUI doesn't auto-quit after operation (by design for multi-operation sessions)
Workaround: Use CLI mode for fully automated testing
Status: Documented, not a bug

Issue #2: Config Directory Handling (NEEDS VERIFICATION)

Severity: Major (if exists)
Location: Config file lookup
Description: .dbbackup.conf may be created in different directories depending on execution context
Test: Verify consistent behavior
Status: ⏳ TO BE VERIFIED

Critical Safety Checks

MUST VERIFY BEFORE RELEASE:

Restore Confirmation Prompt
- Appears for single restore
- Appears for cluster restore
- Warns if overwriting existing database
- Can be cancelled
No Password Leakage
- Config file doesn't store passwords
- Logs don't contain passwords
- Error messages don't expose passwords
Data Integrity
- Backup files are valid
- Restore produces identical data
- Checksums match
- No corruption on partial failures
Graceful Degradation
- Invalid input never crashes app
- Connection failures handled
- Disk full handled
- Permissions handled

Next Steps

Automation Notes

Current Automated Tests:

✅ CLI mode: 10/10 tests passing
✅ Security features: All validated
✅ Retention policy: Working correctly
⏳ TUI mode: Manual testing required (interactive nature)

Recommendation: Combine automated CLI tests with manual TUI verification for comprehensive coverage.
