Testing LangGraph Workflows: Unit to End-to-End (ANSWERED)

Project BasedLangGraphMedium14 min read

**Unit layer** Pure functions: conditional edges, state merge logic, parsers — no graph compile needed.

TL;DR — Quick Answer

Unit-test routers and state reducers; integration-test graph with mocked LLM returning fixed tool calls; snapshot event streams; E2E with recorded fixtures; chaos-test failure paths (lg-012).

The Interview Question

Outline a testing strategy for LangGraph graphs from routing unit tests to E2E with mocked LLMs and tools.

Conditional Edges and Routing Logic in LangGraph (ANSWERED)

**Mechanics** After node N runs, a routing function reads state — e.g., last tool call, confidence score, intent label — and returns one or more next nodes. LangGraph supports static maps from route keys to targets. This replaces fragile if/else scattered in agent code.
