Summary
This PR introduces support for using a separate PostgreSQL database during testing by adding a new
.env.test
file and dynamic configuration logic.Changes
.env.test
to defineENVIRONMENT=test
andPOSTGRES_DB=app_test
config.py
to automatically switch the database based on environmentREADME.md
under a new Testing Environment sectionMotivation
Currently, the development and testing environments use the same database (
app
), which can lead to data collisions or accidental data loss.This PR addresses Issue #125 by separating configuration and runtime behavior cleanly, without introducing breaking changes.
Notes
Let me know if you'd like
.env.test
to be excluded via.gitignore
or if you'd prefer adocker-compose.override.yml
for full isolation.
