• Activity feed: content creation, edits, approvals, publishing
• Permission system: View / Edit / Approve / Admin per workspace
• Workspace member invitation with email workflow
• Member role assignment and permission grants
**F5: Content Approval Workflow**
• Define approval stages per workspace (e.g., Draft → Review → Approved)
• Content status tracking: Draft → Submitted for Review → Approved → Published
• Approval requests with reviewer assignment and deadline
• Reviewer dashboard showing pending approvals
• Approval feedback with required revisions specification
• Auto-notify via email when action required (submission, rejection, approval)

• Plan upgrade/downgrade with pro-rata adjustment
• Dunning management: handle failed payments with retry
---
### **SECTION 3 — SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE**
**Architecture Style**
• Microservices-lite architecture with clear separation of concerns
• API-first design enabling third-party integrations
• Event-driven async processing for long-running tasks (content generation, publishing)
• Multi-tenant isolation at database and API level
**Application Layers**
• **Presentation Layer**: React SPA + WebSocket client
• **API Layer**: Express REST API + GraphQL subscription endpoint
• **Service Layer**: Content generation, publishing, approval orchestration
• **Integration Layer**: Third-party API adapters
• **Data Layer**: PostgreSQL primary store + Redis cache + S3 artifact storage
• **Queue Layer**: Bull.js/Redis for async job processing
**Core Services**
• **Auth Service**: User authentication, SSO, session management, RBAC
• **Tenant Service**: Workspace provisioning, tenant isolation, configuration
• **Content Service**: CRUD for content, versioning, approval workflow state machine
• **AI Service**: OpenAI API wrapper, prompt engineering, response caching
• **Publishing Service**: Platform-specific publishing logic, retry scheduling
• **Analytics Service**: Event collection, aggregation, query interface
• **Billing Service**: Subscription management, usage tracking, invoice generation
**Communication Flow**
• User creates content draft → stored in PostgreSQL (F_CONTENT_DRAFT table)
• User triggers generation → Content Service calls AI Service → OpenAI API → response cached in Redis
• User approves draft → Content Service transitions state, notifies reviewer
• Publishing request → Publishing Service queues jobs to Redis
• Worker processes queue → calls platform APIs → logs results to PostgreSQL
• Analytics Service subscribes to publishing events → aggregates metrics

---
### **SECTION 8 — TESTING STRATEGY**
**Unit Tests**
• Framework: Jest for Node.js backend, React Testing Library for frontend
• Coverage target: 80% of business logic
• Test structure: AAA (Arrange, Act, Assert)
• Example: test approval workflow state transitions
```javascript
describe('Approval Workflow', () => {
test('should transition from pending → approved when approver submits approval', () => {
// Arrange
const approval = createApprovalInPendingState();
// Act
approval.approve('Great work!');
// Assert
expect(approval.status).toBe('approved');
expect(approval.approved_at).toBeDefined();
});
});
```
**Integration Tests**
• Framework: Jest + Supertest for API testing
• Database: use test database (PostgreSQL) with transaction rollback per test
• Coverage: test API endpoints with valid + invalid inputs
• Example: test content generation → publishing flow
```javascript
describe('Content Publishing Flow', () => {
test('should generate, approve, and publish content end-to-end', async () => {
// Create workspace
const workspace = await api.post('/workspaces').send({...});
// Generate content
const content = await api
.post(`/workspaces/${workspace.id}/content/generate`)
.send({topic: '...', content_type: 'blog'});
// Approve
await api
.post(`/workspaces/${workspace.id}/content/${content.id}/approve`)
.send({approval_id: content.approval.id});
// Publish
const published = await api
.post(`/workspaces/${workspace.id}/content/${content.id}/publish`)
.send({platforms: ['wordpress']});
expect(published.status).toBe('published');
});
});
```
**End-to-End Tests**
• Framework: Playwright for browser automation
• Test scenarios:
- User registration → workspace creation → content generation
- Multi-user collaboration: simultaneous editing, commenting
- Publishing to WordPress + LinkedIn in single action
- Approval workflow: submit → review → approval/rejection
- Subscription upgrade and billing
• Run nightly; block deployment if critical tests fail
• Browser coverage: Chrome, Safari, Firefox
**Performance Tests**
• Load testing: k6 or Apache JMeter
• Scenario: 100 concurrent users generating content simultaneously
• Acceptance criteria: p95 response time < 500ms, error rate < 1%
• Run before production deployments
• Monitor: CPU, memory, database connections, queue depth
**Security Testing**
• SAST: SonarQube on every commit

**Approval Workflow Testing**
• Test invalid state transitions (e.g., draft → published without approval)
• Test permission enforcement: viewer cannot approve
• Test revision request flow: content reverts to draft
• Test concurrent approvals: handle race conditions
• Test approval assignment: notifications sent correctly
**Testing Tools & Infrastructure**

- Instant rollback available
• Canary deployments: 10% traffic to new version for 1 hour before full rollout
• Database migrations: zero-downtime using expand/contract pattern
• Feature flags: LaunchDarkly integration to toggle features per tenant
**CI/CD Pipeline**
```
1. Push to GitHub → GitHub Actions triggered
2. Unit tests + lint → if pass, continue
3. Build Docker image → push to ECR
4. Deploy to staging → run integration tests
5. Manual approval required
6. Deploy to production (blue-green) → health checks
7. Smoke tests → if pass, retire blue version
```
