Summary & Changes 📃

• Resolves: Issue: Add Unit Tests for JWT Authentication Guard #160

• Summary: Adds comprehensive unit tests for the JwtAuthGuard class to ensure proper JWT
  authentication behavior.

  • Adds missing test coverage for the JWT authentication guard
  • Tests verify that public routes bypass authentication while protected routes require valid
    JWT tokens
  • Tests cover the canActivate method, @public() decorator integration, and proper delegation to
    the parent AuthGuard

• Changes:

  • Added jwt-auth.guard.spec.ts with 15 test cases covering:
  • Guard instantiation and dependency injection
  • Public route handling (routes marked with @public() decorator)
  • Protected route authentication flow
  • Edge cases (explicit false, null, undefined decorator values)
  • IS_PUBLIC_KEY metadata lookup verification
  • No breaking changes
  • Related to JWT authentication guard implementation
  • Uses mock ExecutionContext and Reflector for isolated unit testing
