5+
**Primary Test File**: `controllers/watch_helpers_test.go` (376 lines)
6+
7+
## 📊 Test Coverage
8+
9+
- **Function Coverage**: 88.9% of `CreateRequestsFromObjectUpdates`
10+
- **Test Scenarios**: 16 comprehensive test cases
11+
- **Execution Time**: ~0.03 seconds
12+

## 🚀 Quick Start
15+
16+
Run the tests:
17+

19+
go test -v ./controllers -run "TestCreateRequestsFromObjectUpdates"
20+
```
21+
22+
Run with coverage:
23+
```bash
24+
go test -v ./controllers -run "TestCreateRequestsFromObjectUpdates" -coverprofile=coverage.out
25+
go tool cover -func=coverage.out | grep watch_helpers.go
26+
```
27+
28+
## 📝 Test Scenarios Covered
29+
30+
### ✅ Success Cases
31+

33+
- Topology field references
34+
35+
### ✅ Empty/No Results
36+

## Usage Examples Based on Real Controllers
70+
71+
The tests are modeled after actual usage patterns found in the codebase:
72+
73+
### DesignateProducer Pattern
74+
```go
75+
watchFields := []string{
76+
".spec.secret",
77+
".spec.tls.caBundleSecretName",
78+
".spec.topologyRef.Name",
79+
}
80+
```
81+
*Used in*: `designateproducer_controller.go`, `designatecentral_controller.go`, `designateworker_controller.go`, `designatemdns_controller.go`
82+
83+
### DesignateAPI Pattern
84+
```go
85+
watchFields := []string{
86+
".spec.secret",
87+
".spec.tls.api.internal.secretName",
88+
".spec.tls.api.public.secretName",
89+
".spec.tls.caBundleSecretName",
90+
".spec.topologyRef.Name",
91+
}
92+
```
93+
*Used in*: `designateapi_controller.go`
94+
95+
### DesignateUnbound Pattern
96+
```go
97+
watchFields := []string{
98+
".spec.secret",
99+
".spec.tls.caBundleSecretName",
100+
".spec.topologyRef.Name",
101+
}
102+
```
103+
*Used in*: `designateunbound_controller.go`, `designatebackendbind9_controller.go`
104+
105+
## Test Implementation Approach
106+
107+
### Mock Strategy
108+
Tests use mock implementations of `ObjectListFunc`:
109+
```go
110+
mockListFunc := func(ctx context.Context, cl client.Client, field string,
111+
src client.Object, log *logr.Logger) ([]metav1.ObjectMeta, error) {
112+
switch field {
113+
case ".spec.secret":
114+
return []metav1.ObjectMeta{{Name: "obj1", Namespace: "ns1"}}, nil
115+
case ".spec.tls.caBundleSecretName":
116+
return []metav1.ObjectMeta{{Name: "obj2", Namespace: "ns2"}}, nil
117+
}
118+
return []metav1.ObjectMeta{}, nil
119+
}
120+
```
121+
122+
### No External Dependencies
123+
The tests are completely self-contained and do not require:
124+
- Kubernetes cluster
125+
- etcd
126+
- kubebuilder test environment
127+
- Actual CRD installations
128+
- Real Kubernetes API calls
129+
130+
This makes them fast, reliable, and easy to run in any environment.
131+
132+
## Running the Tests
133+
134+
### Basic Test Run
135+
```bash
136+
go test -v ./controllers -run "TestCreateRequestsFromObjectUpdates"
137+
```
138+
139+
### With Coverage
140+
```bash
141+
go test -v ./controllers -run "TestCreateRequestsFromObjectUpdates" -coverprofile=coverage.out
142+
go tool cover -func=coverage.out | grep watch_helpers.go
143+
```
144+
145+
### Expected Output
146+
```
147+
github.com/openstack-k8s-operators/designate-operator/controllers/watch_helpers.go:40: CreateRequestsFromObjectUpdates 88.9%
148+
