Add integration tests for AuthContext token-event and storage-event synchronization

[Jagadeeshftw]

📌 Description

src/shared/contexts/AuthContext.tsx listens to both the custom patchwork-auth-token event and the cross-tab storage event to keep auth state in sync, re-running checkAuth on token set and clearing state on token removal. The existing AuthContext.test.tsx should be extended (or a focused integration test added) to cover: clearing state when a storage event removes patchwork_jwt, refreshing user on a patchwork-auth-token set event, and ignoring storage events for unrelated keys.

💡 Why it matters: Cross-tab logout and same-tab token changes are security-relevant; an event-handling regression could leave a logged-out tab appearing authenticated.

🧩 Requirements and context

• Test that dispatching storage with key: 'patchwork_jwt' and newValue: null clears user/role/id.
• Test that a patchwork-auth-token set event triggers getCurrentUser re-fetch.
• Test that storage events for other keys are ignored.
• Mock getCurrentUser and storage; assert state transitions.
• Ensure listeners are cleaned up on unmount.

Non-functional requirements

• Must be secure, tested, and documented.
• Should be efficient and easy to review.

🛠️ Suggested execution

1. Fork the repo and create a branch

git checkout -b test/auth-context-sync

2. Implement changes

• Write/modify the relevant source: none unless a bug is found
• Write comprehensive tests: src/shared/contexts/AuthContext.test.tsx
• Add documentation: inline test descriptions
• Include TSDoc doc comments where touched
• Validate security assumptions: cross-tab logout reliably clears state

3. Test and commit

• Run tests:

npm test -- AuthContext

• Cover edge cases: unrelated key, set then clear, unmount cleanup
• Include test output and security notes in the PR description.

Example commit message

test(auth): cover token/storage event synchronization

✅ Acceptance criteria

• storage-clear path clears state
• token-set event re-fetches user
• unrelated key ignored
• listeners removed on unmount

🔒 Security notes

Verify a removed token in any tab cannot leave another tab in an authenticated state.

📋 Guidelines

• Minimum 95% test coverage
• Clear documentation
• Timeframe: 96 hours
