n8n Integration Testing Patterns

When testing n8n integrations:

VERIFY connectivity and authentication TEST all configured operations VALIDATE API response handling CHECK rate limit behavior CONFIRM error handling works

Quick Integration Checklist:

Credentials valid and not expired API permissions sufficient for operations Rate limits understood and respected Error responses properly handled Data formats match API expectations

Critical Success Factors:

Test in isolation before workflow integration Verify OAuth token refresh works Check API version compatibility Monitor rate limit headers Quick Reference Card Common n8n Integrations Category Services Auth Type Communication Slack, Teams, Discord OAuth2, Webhook Data Storage Google Sheets, Airtable OAuth2, API Key CRM Salesforce, HubSpot OAuth2 Dev Tools GitHub, Jira, Linear OAuth2, API Key Marketing Mailchimp, SendGrid API Key Authentication Types Type Setup Refresh OAuth2 User authorization flow Automatic token refresh API Key Manual key entry Manual rotation Basic Auth Username/password No refresh needed Header Auth Custom header Manual rotation Connectivity Testing // Test integration connectivity async function testIntegrationConnectivity(nodeName: string): Promise { const node = await getNodeConfig(nodeName);

// Check credential exists if (!node.credentials) { return { connected: false, error: 'No credentials configured' }; }

// Test based on integration type switch (getIntegrationType(node.type)) { case 'slack': return await testSlackConnectivity(node.credentials); case 'google-sheets': return await testGoogleSheetsConnectivity(node.credentials); case 'jira': return await testJiraConnectivity(node.credentials); case 'github': return await testGitHubConnectivity(node.credentials); default: return await testGenericAPIConnectivity(node); } }

// Slack connectivity test async function testSlackConnectivity(credentials: any): Promise { try { const response = await fetch('https://slack.com/api/auth.test', { headers: { 'Authorization': Bearer ${credentials.accessToken} } }); const data = await response.json();

return {
  connected: data.ok,
  workspace: data.team,
  user: data.user,
  scopes: data.response_metadata?.scopes || []
};

} catch (error) { return { connected: false, error: error.message }; } }

// Google Sheets connectivity test async function testGoogleSheetsConnectivity(credentials: any): Promise { try { const response = await fetch('https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/about?fields=user', { headers: { 'Authorization': Bearer ${credentials.accessToken} } });

if (response.status === 401) {
  // Try refresh
  const refreshed = await refreshOAuthToken(credentials);

}

const data = await response.json();
return { connected: true, user: data.user };

} catch (error) { return { connected: false, error: error.message }; } }

API Operation Testing // Test integration operations async function testIntegrationOperations(nodeName: string): Promise { const node = await getNodeConfig(nodeName); const operations = getNodeOperations(node.type); const results: OperationResult[] = [];

for (const operation of operations) { const testData = generateTestData(node.type, operation);

try {
  const startTime = Date.now();
  const response = await executeOperation(node, operation, testData);

  results.push({
    operation,
    success: true,
    responseTime: Date.now() - startTime,
    responseStatus: response.status,
    dataValid: validateResponseData(response.data, operation)
  });
} catch (error) {
  results.push({
    operation,
    success: false,
    error: error.message,
    errorType: classifyError(error)
  });
}

}

return results; }

// Generate test data for operations function generateTestData(nodeType: string, operation: string): any { const testDataMap = { 'slack': { 'postMessage': { channel: 'C123456', text: 'Test message from n8n integration test' }, 'uploadFile': { channels: 'C123456', content: 'Test file content', filename: 'test.txt' } }, 'google-sheets': { 'appendData': { spreadsheetId: 'test-spreadsheet-id', range: 'Sheet1!A:Z', values: [['Test', 'Data', new Date().toISOString()]] }, 'readRows': { spreadsheetId: 'test-spreadsheet-id', range: 'Sheet1!A1:Z10' } }, 'jira': { 'createIssue': { project: 'TEST', issueType: 'Task', summary: 'Test issue from n8n', description: 'Created by integration test' }, 'updateIssue': { issueKey: 'TEST-1', fields: { summary: 'Updated by n8n test' } } } };

return testDataMap[nodeType]?.[operation] || {}; }

Authentication Testing OAuth2 Flow Testing // Test OAuth2 authentication async function testOAuth2Authentication(credentials: any): Promise { const result: OAuth2Result = { tokenValid: false, refreshWorking: false, scopes: [], expiresIn: 0 };

// Test current token const tokenTest = await testAccessToken(credentials.accessToken); result.tokenValid = tokenTest.valid; result.scopes = tokenTest.scopes;

// Check expiration if (credentials.expiresAt) { result.expiresIn = new Date(credentials.expiresAt).getTime() - Date.now(); result.expiresSoon = result.expiresIn < 3600000; // Less than 1 hour }

// Test refresh token if (credentials.refreshToken) { try { const newToken = await refreshOAuthToken(credentials); result.refreshWorking = !!newToken; } catch (error) { result.refreshError = error.message; } }

return result; }

// Test required scopes async function testRequiredScopes(credentials: any, requiredScopes: string[]): Promise { const currentScopes = await getTokenScopes(credentials.accessToken); const missingScopes = requiredScopes.filter(s => !currentScopes.includes(s));

return { hasAllScopes: missingScopes.length === 0, currentScopes, missingScopes, recommendation: missingScopes.length > 0 ? Re-authorize with scopes: ${missingScopes.join(', ')} : null }; }

API Key Testing // Test API key validity async function testAPIKey(integration: string, apiKey: string): Promise { const endpoints = { 'sendgrid': 'https://api.sendgrid.com/v3/user/profile', 'mailchimp': 'https://us1.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/ping', 'airtable': 'https://api.airtable.com/v0/meta/whoami' };

const endpoint = endpoints[integration]; if (!endpoint) { return { valid: false, error: 'Unknown integration' }; }

try { const response = await fetch(endpoint, { headers: { 'Authorization': Bearer ${apiKey} } });

return {
  valid: response.status === 200,
  status: response.status,
  rateLimit: extractRateLimitInfo(response.headers)
};

} catch (error) { return { valid: false, error: error.message }; } }

Rate Limit Testing // Test rate limit handling async function testRateLimits(nodeName: string, requestCount: number): Promise { const results: RequestResult[] = []; let rateLimitHit = false; let retryAfter = 0;

for (let i = 0; i < requestCount; i++) { const startTime = Date.now(); const response = await makeRequest(nodeName);

results.push({
  requestNumber: i + 1,
  status: response.status,
  responseTime: Date.now() - startTime,
  rateLimitRemaining: response.headers['x-ratelimit-remaining'],
  rateLimitLimit: response.headers['x-ratelimit-limit']
});

if (response.status === 429) {
  rateLimitHit = true;
  retryAfter = parseInt(response.headers['retry-after'] || '60');
  break;
}

// Small delay between requests
await sleep(100);

}

return { requestsMade: results.length, rateLimitHit, retryAfter, results, recommendation: rateLimitHit ? Implement exponential backoff, retry after ${retryAfter}s : 'Rate limit not reached, consider increasing request count for thorough testing' }; }

// Extract rate limit info from headers function extractRateLimitInfo(headers: Headers): RateLimitInfo { return { limit: headers.get('x-ratelimit-limit'), remaining: headers.get('x-ratelimit-remaining'), reset: headers.get('x-ratelimit-reset'), retryAfter: headers.get('retry-after') }; }

Error Handling Testing // Test error scenarios async function testErrorScenarios(nodeName: string): Promise { const scenarios = [ { name: 'Invalid credentials', modify: { credentials: null } }, { name: 'Invalid endpoint', modify: { url: 'https://invalid.example.com' } }, { name: 'Timeout', modify: { timeout: 1 } }, { name: 'Invalid data', modify: { data: { invalid: true } } }, { name: 'Not found', modify: { resourceId: 'nonexistent-123' } }, { name: 'Permission denied', modify: { scope: 'read-only' } } ];

const results: ErrorTestResult[] = [];

for (const scenario of scenarios) { try { const response = await executeWithModification(nodeName, scenario.modify);

  results.push({
    scenario: scenario.name,
    errorHandled: response.status >= 400,
    errorCode: response.status,
    errorMessage: response.data?.error?.message,
    retried: response.metadata?.retryCount > 0
  });
} catch (error) {
  results.push({
    scenario: scenario.name,
    errorHandled: true,
    exceptionThrown: true,
    errorType: error.constructor.name,
    errorMessage: error.message
  });
}

}

return results; }

// Classify error types function classifyError(error: any): string { if (error.status === 401 || error.status === 403) return 'authentication'; if (error.status === 404) return 'not-found'; if (error.status === 429) return 'rate-limit'; if (error.status >= 500) return 'server-error'; if (error.code === 'ETIMEDOUT') return 'timeout'; if (error.code === 'ECONNREFUSED') return 'connection'; return 'unknown'; }

Integration-Specific Patterns Slack Integration const slackTestPatterns = { // Test message posting testPostMessage: async (credentials) => { return await fetch('https://slack.com/api/chat.postMessage', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Authorization': Bearer ${credentials.accessToken}, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({ channel: 'C123456', text: 'Integration test message' }) }); },

// Test file upload testFileUpload: async (credentials) => { const formData = new FormData(); formData.append('channels', 'C123456'); formData.append('content', 'Test file content'); formData.append('filename', 'test.txt');

return await fetch('https://slack.com/api/files.upload', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${credentials.accessToken}` },
  body: formData
});

},

// Validate required scopes requiredScopes: ['chat:write', 'files:write', 'channels:read'] };

Google Sheets Integration const googleSheetsTestPatterns = { // Test read operation testReadRows: async (credentials, spreadsheetId) => { return await fetch( https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/${spreadsheetId}/values/Sheet1!A1:Z10, { headers: { 'Authorization': Bearer ${credentials.accessToken} } } ); },

// Test append operation testAppendRow: async (credentials, spreadsheetId, values) => { return await fetch( https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/${spreadsheetId}/values/Sheet1!A:Z:append?valueInputOption=USER_ENTERED, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Authorization': Bearer ${credentials.accessToken}, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({ values: [values] }) } ); },

// Required scopes requiredScopes: ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets'] };
