Testing

How to verify each part of the system. Do the mailcmd tests as the asterisk user, not as yourself — that's where permission bugs hide.

---

0. Pre-checks

df -h /var                                  # must not be full (Postfix 452)
grep '^mailcmd' /etc/asterisk/voicemail.conf
sudo systemctl is-active vm-portal
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:8099/healthz

---

1. Unit tests (no sudo, no asterisk)

cd /home/jp/Work/asterisk-voicemail
./venv/bin/python tests/test_telegram.py     # routing, caption clipping, opus transcode
./venv/bin/python tests/test_contacts.py     # vCard/CSV parse, digit-normalised match

test_telegram.py asserts: per-mailbox → one chat; comma list → N chats; group id negative; unmapped → default; enabled=no → no route; caption clipped to 1017 chars on a word boundary when over 1024; a 374 KB wav → 64 KB OggS opus.

test_contacts.py asserts: +447700900123, 07700900123, 447700900123 all match one contact (last-9-digit key); multi-TEL cards; Google CSV ::: split.

2. Build a fake voicemail and run the real pipeline

# needs ffmpeg; uses test_vm.wav shipped in the repo (or any wav)
python3 tests/make_test_mail.py test_vm.wav you@example.com > /tmp/t.eml
sudo chmod 644 /tmp/t.eml
sudo -u asterisk /opt/vm-transcribe/venv/bin/python3 \
     /opt/vm-transcribe/vm_mailcmd.py < /tmp/t.eml
sudo tail -5 /var/log/asterisk/vm_mailcmd.log

Expect transcribed … chars then sent enriched notification to you@example.com. Then confirm real delivery:

sudo grep "to=<you@example.com>" /var/log/mail.log | tail -1   # status=sent

Fail-safe: a message with no audio

printf 'From: a@b\nTo: you@example.com\nSubject: no audio\n\nbody\n' > /tmp/n.eml
sudo chmod 644 /tmp/n.eml
sudo -u asterisk /opt/vm-transcribe/venv/bin/python3 \
     /opt/vm-transcribe/vm_mailcmd.py < /tmp/n.eml
# log must show: "no audio attachment; relaying original"

Fail-safe: a thrown error relays the original

Temporarily point VM_DB at an unreadable path; the script should fall back to relaying the original Asterisk message and log relaying original, mailcmd error.

3. Telegram (needs a real token)

sudo /opt/vm-transcribe/venv/bin/python3 /opt/vm-transcribe/vm_tg_setup.py ids
# each recipient must have messaged the bot once (/start) to appear
sudo /opt/vm-transcribe/venv/bin/python3 /opt/vm-transcribe/vm_tg_setup.py test 1001
# sends a real voice note + summary; exits non-zero on any failure

Offline, the routing logic is covered by tests/test_telegram.py so you don't need a token to verify the config parser.

---

4. Contacts

sudo -u asterisk /opt/vm-transcribe/venv/bin/python3 \
     /opt/vm-transcribe/vm_contacts.py '<07700900123>'
# resolves against the configured backend; prints name or the raw caller id

---

5. Portal — auth, authz, playback, delete

Run the app locally (or against the live service) and exercise it with curl. Use VM_INSECURE_COOKIE=1 only for plain-HTTP local tests so the Secure cookie can be set.

# login ok
curl -s -c /tmp/j -o /dev/null -w '%{redirect_url}\n' \
     -d 'mailbox=7940&pin=5159' http://127.0.0.1:8099/login

# wrong pin rejected
curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' -d 'mailbox=7940&pin=1111' http://127.0.0.1:8099/login

# authenticated list
curl -s -b /tmp/j http://127.0.0.1:8099/ | grep -c 'class="card'

# audio streams
curl -s -b /tmp/j -o /tmp/x.wav http://127.0.0.1:8099/audio/1
file /tmp/x.wav        # RIFF WAVE, 8000 Hz mono

# delete
curl -s -b /tmp/j -X POST -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' http://127.0.0.1:8099/delete/1

Authorization (IDOR) — must 404

A session for mailbox A must never reach mailbox B's data. With a cookie for mailbox 7940, hitting /audio/<id-owned-by-1001> and /delete/<id-owned-by-1001> must both return 404/303, never serve or delete the other mailbox's message. Add this assertion whenever you change vm_store or vm_web.

---

6. Portal over the real URL (TLS + proxy)

R="--resolve vm.txt3.net:443:ORIGIN.IP"
curl -s $R https://vm.txt3.net/healthz
curl -s $R -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' https://vm.txt3.net/login
curl -s $R -D- -o /dev/null https://vm.txt3.net/login | grep -iE 'strict-transport|content-security|x-frame'
# http -> https redirect
curl -s $R -o /dev/null -w '%{redirect_url}\n' http://vm.txt3.net/

Behind a CDN, --resolve to the origin IP; otherwise you are testing the CDN, not your server.

7. Backfill

sudo -u asterisk /opt/vm-transcribe/venv/bin/python3 \
     /opt/vm-transcribe/vm_import.py --dry-run --limit 5
# preview: lists 5 messages with caller + date, no writes

sudo -u asterisk /opt/vm-transcribe/venv/bin/python3 \
     /opt/vm-transcribe/vm_import.py --limit 3
# real: 3 imported, others skipped; re-running is a no-op (idempotent)

Verify they appear in the portal and are playable (§5). Expect a no_speech count — 44-byte WAVs are hung-up calls, not failures.
