+## Testing
+
+This project includes comprehensive testing to catch major potential issues. See [TESTING.md](./TESTING.md) for detailed information about:
+
+- Running tests and viewing coverage
+- Adding new tests for components and utilities  
+- Testing best practices and patterns
+- Debugging test issues
+
+### Quick Test Commands
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+npm test
+
+# Run tests with coverage
+npm run test:coverage
+
+# Run tests in watch mode
+npm run test:watch
+```
+

+# Testing Documentation
+
+This document describes the testing setup for the GitHub Grid Agent project, including how to run tests, add new tests, and maintain good test coverage.
+
+## Test Setup Overview
+
+The project uses Jest with React Testing Library for comprehensive testing of components and utilities. The testing configuration is designed to catch major potential issues and ensure code reliability.
+
+### Test Framework
+- **Jest**: Primary testing framework with extensive mocking capabilities
+- **React Testing Library**: Component testing with user-centric test utilities
+- **@testing-library/jest-dom**: Custom Jest matchers for DOM testing
+- **JSDOM**: Browser environment simulation for component tests
+
+## Running Tests
+
+### Basic Test Commands
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests once
+npm test
+
+# Run tests in watch mode (reruns on file changes)
+npm run test:watch
+
+# Run tests with coverage report
+npm run test:coverage
+
+# Run tests with coverage in watch mode
+npm run test:coverage:watch
+```
+
+### Coverage Thresholds
+
+The project is configured with coverage thresholds to maintain code quality:
+- **Statements**: 70% minimum
+- **Branches**: 70% minimum  
+- **Functions**: 70% minimum
+- **Lines**: 70% minimum
+
+## Current Test Coverage
+
+### Well-Tested Areas ✅
+- **Column Types**: Complete test coverage for all column type components
+- **Utility Functions**: Full coverage for string utilities, URL params, and localStorage
+- **Basic Component Integration**: Page component and test utilities
+
+### Areas Needing More Tests ⚠️
+- **Server Actions** (0% coverage): Critical business logic in `actions.ts`
+- **Main Components** (0% coverage): Grid, Home, GridContext, and other core UI components
+- **Functions** (0% coverage): GitHub API functions and external integrations
+- **Complex Components**: GridTable, GridHeader, SelectedRowPanel
+
+## Test Structure
+
+### Test Files Organization
+```
+app/
+├── __tests__/           # Root-level tests (page, integration)
+│   ├── test-utils.tsx   # Shared testing utilities
+│   └── page.test.tsx    # Main page component tests
+├── columns/__tests__/   # Column type tests
+├── components/__tests__/ # Component tests  
+└── utils/__tests__/     # Utility function tests
+```
+
+### Test Utilities
+
+The project includes shared test utilities in `app/__tests__/test-utils.tsx`:
+
+- **Custom render function**: Wraps components with ThemeProvider and BaseStyles
+- **Mock functions**: Pre-configured mocks for server actions
+- **Test data**: Sample grid data for consistent testing
+- **Setup helpers**: Common test setup and teardown functions
+
+### Example Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { render, screen } from '../__tests__/test-utils';
+import { mockCreatePrimaryColumn } from '../__tests__/test-utils';
+
+test('component renders correctly', () => {
+  render(<MyComponent />);
+  expect(screen.getByRole('button')).toBeInTheDocument();
+});
+```
+
+## Adding New Tests
+
+### For Utility Functions
+
+1. Create test file in appropriate `__tests__` directory
+2. Import the function and test all edge cases
+3. Use descriptive test names and group related tests
+
+```typescript
+// app/utils/__tests__/myFunction.test.ts
+import { myFunction } from '../myFunction';
+
+describe('myFunction', () => {
+  it('handles normal input correctly', () => {
+    expect(myFunction('input')).toBe('expected output');
+  });
+
+  it('handles edge cases', () => {
+    expect(myFunction('')).toBe('');
+    expect(myFunction(null)).toBe('default');
+  });
+});
+```
+
+### For React Components
+
+1. Use the shared test utilities for consistent setup
+2. Test user interactions and component behavior
+3. Mock external dependencies appropriately
+
+```typescript
+// app/components/__tests__/MyComponent.test.tsx
+import { render, screen, fireEvent } from '../../__tests__/test-utils';
+import MyComponent from '../MyComponent';
+
+describe('MyComponent', () => {
+  it('renders without crashing', () => {
+    render(<MyComponent />);
+    expect(screen.getByRole('main')).toBeInTheDocument();
+  });
+
+  it('handles user interactions', () => {
+    render(<MyComponent />);
+    fireEvent.click(screen.getByRole('button'));
+    expect(screen.getByText('Expected result')).toBeInTheDocument();
+  });
+});
+```
+
+### For Server Actions
+
+Server actions require careful mocking of external dependencies:
+
+```typescript
+// Mock external APIs
+jest.mock('openai');
+jest.mock('../utils/github');
+
+// Test the action
+import { myServerAction } from '../actions';
+
+describe('myServerAction', () => {
+  it('processes data correctly', async () => {
+    const result = await myServerAction(testData);
+    expect(result).toEqual(expectedResult);
+  });
+});
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Test Naming
+- Use descriptive test names that explain the expected behavior
+- Group related tests using `describe` blocks
+- Follow the pattern: "should [expected behavior] when [condition]"
+
+### Mocking Strategy
+- Mock external dependencies at the module level
+- Use Jest's auto-mocking for complex external libraries
+- Create reusable mock data in test utilities
+
+### Test Data
+- Use realistic but minimal test data
+- Create factories for generating test data variations
+- Store common test data in the test utilities file
+
+### Coverage Guidelines
+- Aim for meaningful tests, not just coverage numbers
+- Focus on testing user-facing behavior and edge cases
+- Test error conditions and boundary cases
+- Don't test implementation details
+
+## Common Testing Patterns
+
+### Testing Hooks
+```typescript
+import { renderHook, act } from '@testing-library/react';
+import { useMyHook } from '../useMyHook';
+
+test('hook updates state correctly', () => {
+  const { result } = renderHook(() => useMyHook());
+  
+  act(() => {
+    result.current.updateValue('new value');
+  });
+  
+  expect(result.current.value).toBe('new value');
+});
+```
+
+### Testing Async Operations
+```typescript
+test('async operation completes successfully', async () => {
+  render(<AsyncComponent />);
+  
+  await waitFor(() => {
+    expect(screen.getByText('Loaded data')).toBeInTheDocument();
+  });
+});
+```
+
+### Testing Error States
+```typescript
+test('displays error message on failure', async () => {
+  // Mock API to return error
+  mockApi.mockRejectedValueOnce(new Error('API Error'));
+  
+  render(<ComponentWithAPI />);
+  
+  await waitFor(() => {
+    expect(screen.getByText(/error/i)).toBeInTheDocument();
+  });
+});
+```
+
+## Debugging Tests
+
+### Running Specific Tests
+```bash
+# Run tests for a specific file
+npm test -- MyComponent.test.tsx
+
+# Run tests matching a pattern
+npm test -- --testNamePattern="should handle errors"
+
+# Run tests in a specific directory
+npm test -- app/utils
+```
+
+### Debugging Tips
+- Use `screen.debug()` to see current DOM state
+- Add `console.log` statements to understand test flow
+- Use VS Code's Jest extension for inline test running
+- Check Jest configuration in `jest.config.js` for custom settings
+
+## Future Testing Improvements
+
+### Priority Areas for Additional Tests
+1. **Server Actions**: Add comprehensive tests for `actions.ts`
+2. **Core Components**: Test Grid, Home, and GridContext components
+3. **Integration Tests**: Test complete user workflows
+4. **Error Handling**: Test error boundaries and failure states
+5. **Performance**: Add tests for component performance and memory usage
+
+### Testing Infrastructure Improvements
+- Add visual regression testing with tools like Storybook
+- Implement E2E testing with Playwright or Cypress
+- Add accessibility testing with jest-axe
+- Set up mutation testing to verify test quality
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+- **Mock not working**: Ensure mocks are defined before imports
+- **Async test failing**: Use `waitFor` or `findBy` queries for async content
+- **Component not rendering**: Check if required providers are wrapped
+- **Coverage too low**: Identify untested branches with coverage report
+
+### Getting Help
+- Check Jest documentation: https://jestjs.io/
+- React Testing Library guides: https://testing-library.com/docs/react-testing-library/intro/
+- Review existing tests in the codebase for patterns
+- Use the shared test utilities for consistent testing setup
