🚀 QUICK START (5 MINUTES)

# 1. Start dev server
npm run dev

# 2. Navigate to candidates list
# http://localhost:3000/candidates

# 3. Test basic flow
- Click on "My Queue" (if Manager)
- Search by name
- Filter by status
- Click candidate row
- Verify pagination

# 4. Verify RBAC
- Logout and login as different role
- Verify you see only appropriate candidates

📋 TEST CHECKLIST

Access Control Tests:

  • HR sees all candidates
  • Manager sees only assigned candidates
  • SMO sees only TO_SMO + decided
  • Admin sees all candidates

Feature Tests:

  • Text search filters results
  • Status filter works
  • Position filter works
  • Manager filter works
  • Date range filter works
  • Overdue toggle shows warning badge

Navigation Tests:

  • Click row → opens detail
  • Next button works (if hasMore)
  • Previous button works
  • Page refresh → filters persist
  • URL parameters preserved

Display Tests:

  • 8 columns visible
  • Status colors correct
  • Overdue indicator visible
  • Age in status calculated
  • Owner role correct
  • Manager name displayed
  • Empty state shows correctly
  • Loading state appears

Edge Cases:

  • No results → empty state
  • Multiple filters → combined correctly
  • Last page → Next disabled
  • First page → Previous disabled
  • Manager cannot see others (URL hack test)

🔐 SECURITY NOTES

RBAC Enforcement:

✅ Server-side filtering in API
✅ Manager cannot see others' assigned candidates
✅ SMO cannot see non-SMO candidates
✅ No client-side security (enforced at API)
✅ Token validation on every request

Data Protection:

✅ No sensitive data in URL (except IDs)
✅ Query params sanitized
✅ SQL injection prevented (Prisma)
✅ CORS properly configured

📚 DOCUMENTATION GUIDE

For Developers:

  1. Start with W11-QUICK-REFERENCE.md (5 min)
  2. Review W11-IMPLEMENTATION.md Section D (components)
  3. Check W11-VISUAL-SUMMARY.md (architecture)

For QA/Testing:

  1. Use W11-IMPLEMENTATION.md Section H (20 test cases)
  2. Reference W11-QUICK-REFERENCE.md (5-min test)
  3. Check W11-COMPLETION-REPORT.md (acceptance criteria)

For Product/Managers:

  1. Read W11-DELIVERY.md (features summary)
  2. Review acceptance criteria in report
  3. Check deployment checklist
