Frontend WebSocket Tests Summary

Expanded the useWebSocket.test.ts from minimal coverage to 20 comprehensive tests covering:

  WebSocket Mock Tests (6 tests)

  - Creates WebSocket with correct URL
  - Starts in CONNECTING state
  - Transitions to OPEN state
  - Can receive messages
  - Can close connection
  - Tracks all instances

  Hook Connection Tests (2 tests)

  - Connects to WebSocket on mount
  - Reports connected state when WebSocket opens

  Message Handling Tests (9 tests)

  - Updates printer status in query cache on printer_status message
  - Preserves wifi_signal when new value is null
  - Invalidates archives on print_complete message
  - Invalidates archives on archive_created message
  - Invalidates archives on archive_updated message (new handler for timelapse auto-assignment)
  - Ignores pong messages without error
  - Handles malformed JSON gracefully
  - Handles unknown message types gracefully

  sendMessage Tests (2 tests)

  - Sends JSON message when connected
  - Does not send when disconnected

  Reconnection Tests (2 tests)

  - Reconnects after connection closes
  - Cleans up on unmount

  Key Fixes

  - Fixed MSW (Mock Service Worker) conflict by:
    a. Adding addEventListener/removeEventListener to MockWebSocket class
    b. Updating MSW setup to bypass WebSocket requests
    c. Properly managing WebSocket mock lifecycle in each test

  Test Results:
  - Frontend: 137 tests passed (9 test files)
  - Backend: 346 tests passed
