Summary

Fixed a critical bug in the transaction processing logic where the conditional check for transaction types was inverted, causing:

  • Payment transactions to remain in pending status instead of being marked as complete
  • Request transactions to be auto-completed instead of remaining pending for approval
  • Payment balances not being updated correctly for sender and receiver

Changes

File: backend/database.ts:549

Changed the conditional from:

if (isRequestTransaction(transaction)) {

To:

if (!isRequestTransaction(transaction)) {

This ensures that the payment processing logic (balance debit/credit and status completion) only runs for payment transactions, not request transactions.

Test Results

Before Fix:

  • ❌ 2 tests failing: should create a payment and should create a request
  • Payments had status "pending" (expected "complete")
  • Requests had status "complete" (expected "pending")

After Fix:

  • ✅ All 44 unit tests passing
  • Payments correctly marked as "complete" with balances updated
  • Requests correctly remain as "pending" until approved

Test Plan

  • Run unit tests: yarn test:unit:ci - All passing
  • Verify payment transactions complete immediately in UI
  • Verify request transactions stay pending until approved
  • Check sender/receiver balances update correctly for payments
  • Confirm notifications are sent with correct status

Revert "Extract NotificationBadge component and add comprehensive tests"
This reverts commit 531adfb.
Corrected conditional logic in createTransaction that was backwards:
payments were left pending instead of being completed, and requests
were auto-completed instead of remaining pending for approval.
