Description
Description
Add controller-level tests using MockMvc. These tests sit at the web layer — no real ClickHouse or service infrastructure needed. They verify that each endpoint correctly handles request validation, auth header parsing, error conditions, and returns the right HTTP status codes.
This issue depends on #35050 (ingest code refactor) being complete.
Parent epic: #35048
Acceptance Criteria
- MockMvc tests added for all controller endpoints
- Auth header parsing tested:
X-Customer-IdandX-Signature— valid, missing, and malformed cases - Request validation tested: missing required params, invalid formats, out-of-range values
- Error responses tested: correct HTTP status codes and response body shape for each error condition
- Happy path tested: valid request returns expected 2xx status and response structure
- Tests run without external infrastructure (no ClickHouse, no Docker)
Additional Context
- Source task: Task 5 (Web layer tests) from the improvement plan
- Blocked by: #35050 (ingest code refactor must be done first)
- Framework: Spring Boot Test + MockMvc
- Headers under test:
X-Customer-Id,X-Signature(HMAC SHA-256) - Related branch:

Research direction
Start by locating the controller endpoints and the existing Spring Boot Test setup, then review the dependency on #35050 before writing MockMvc tests. Cover the listed auth-header, validation, error, and happy-path cases, and run the tests without ClickHouse or Docker; done means all controller endpoints meet the acceptance criteria.
