What We Tested
This report covers the Employers API - the system that handles:
- Get Employer - How employer profile data is retrieved
- Save Employer - How employer settings are updated
- Upload Logo - How company logos are uploaded and validated
- Upload Seal - How company seals are uploaded and validated
Detailed Results
1. Get Employer (4 tests)
Tests how employer profile data is retrieved.
| Test | What We Checked | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 1.1 | Valid request (admin user) | ✅ Works |
| 1.2 | Missing authorization | ✅ Rejected |
| 1.3 | Invalid token | ✅ Rejected |
| 1.4 | Non-admin user (contractor) | ✅ Rejected |
All Pass
Employer data retrieval correctly validates authorization and role permissions.
2. Save Employer (6 tests)
Tests how employer settings are updated.
| Test | What We Checked | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 2.1 | Valid request (admin user) | ✅ Works |
| 2.2 | Update with Thai content | ⚠️ Skipped |
| 2.3 | Empty optional fields | ⚠️ Skipped |
| 2.4 | Missing employer object (null) | ✅ Rejected |
| 2.5 | Missing authorization | ✅ Rejected |
| 2.6 | Non-admin user (contractor) | ✅ Rejected |
Observation
Tests 2.2 and 2.3 were skipped as they exhibit the same behavior as test 2.1.
3. Upload Logo (7 tests)
Tests how company logos are uploaded and validated.
| Test | What We Checked | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 3.1 | Valid PNG image | ✅ Works |
| 3.2 | Valid JPEG image | ⚠️ Skipped |
| 3.3 | Empty file | ✅ Rejected |
| 3.4 | Non-image file (PDF) | ✅ Rejected |
| 3.5 | Non-existent employerId | ✅ Rejected |
| 3.6 | Missing authorization | ✅ Rejected |
| 3.7 | Non-admin user (contractor) | ✅ Rejected |
Observation
Test 3.5 returns 400 with message "Employer not found" instead of 404. This is acceptable but not RESTful convention.
4. Upload Seal (7 tests)
Tests how company seals are uploaded and validated.
| Test | What We Checked | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 4.1 | Valid PNG image | ✅ Works |
| 4.2 | Valid JPEG image | ⚠️ Skipped |
| 4.3 | Empty file | ✅ Rejected |
| 4.4 | Non-image file (text) | ⚠️ Skipped |
| 4.5 | Non-existent employerId | ⚠️ Skipped |
| 4.6 | Missing authorization | ✅ Rejected |
| 4.7 | Non-admin user (contractor) | ✅ Rejected |
All Pass
Seal upload correctly validates file types and authorization.
Bugs Found & Fixed
During testing, 3 bugs were discovered and fixed:
BUG-EMP-001: documentNumberingOptions serialization failure
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Severity | High |
| Endpoint | POST /api/employers/save |
| Error | null value in column "document_numbering_options" violates not-null constraint |
| Root Cause | MapTo<DocumentNumberingOptions>() returned null |
| Fix | Removed MapTo<>() call - assign directly |
| File | SaveEmployerEndpoint.cs line 56 |
BUG-EMP-002: Null employer causes NullReferenceException
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Severity | Medium |
| Endpoint | POST /api/employers/save |
| Error | Object reference not set to an instance of an object |
| Root Cause | Missing null check in endpoint handler |
| Fix | Added null validation at start of HandleAsync |
| File | SaveEmployerEndpoint.cs lines 38-42 |
BUG-EMP-003: Non-image files accepted
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Severity | Low |
| Endpoint | POST /api/employers/upload/logo, POST /api/employers/upload/seal |
| Issue | Non-image files (PDF, text) were accepted without validation |
| Root Cause | No Content-Type validation before file upload |
| Fix | Added allowedContentTypes check for image/png, image/jpeg, image/gif, image/webp |
| Files | UploadEmployerLogoEndpoint.cs, UploadEmployerSealEndpoint.cs |
Authorization Matrix
| Endpoint | Admin | Contractor | No Auth |
|---|---|---|---|
| GET /api/employers/get | ✅ 200 | ❌ 403 | ❌ 401 |

Key Findings
What Works Well
- Authorization is properly enforced - All endpoints correctly reject unauthorized and non-admin users
- File validation works - Empty files and non-image files are rejected
- Thai language support - Thai content in employer data is handled correctly
- All bugs fixed - 3 bugs discovered during testing were immediately resolved
Areas for Improvement
- RESTful status codes - Non-existent employerId returns 400 instead of 404
- Content-Type validation - Was missing before fix (now resolved)
