Summary
This PR adds support for a dedicated PostgreSQL test database by introducing a
.env.test
file and adapting the config logic to switch automatically based on theENVIRONMENT
variable.What’s in this PR
.env.test
file withENVIRONMENT=test
andPOSTGRES_DB=app_test
config.py
to dynamically load the correct databaseWhy
Right now, both development and test environments point to the same DB (
app
), which can lead to data conflicts during CI runs or local testing.This solves Issue #125 by making test isolation simple and configuration-driven—no breaking changes introduced.
Additional Notes
.env.test
is included by default — let me know if you’d prefer it excluded via.gitignore
