+# CI Test Database Environment (#859)
+
+The CI Test Database Environment provides a reproducible, isolated database environment for running integration tests in Continuous Integration (CI) and local environments.
+
+## Overview & Acceptance Criteria
+
+- **Database Provisioning**: CI can provision the required database automatically on demand without manual setup or pre-existing files.
+- **Automated Migrations**: Schema creation and all incremental database migrations (`001-initial-schema`, `002-query-performance-indexes`, etc.) execute automatically during provisioning.
+- **Clean State Guarantee**: Previous database artifacts (including write-ahead logs and shared memory files) are removed prior to test execution, ensuring tests always start from and leave a clean state.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Lifecycle & Architecture
+
+```
+[ CI Job Starts ]
+        │
+        ▼
+[ Clean Previous Artifacts ] ──► Unlink .db, -wal, -shm, -journal
+        │
+        ▼
+[ Initialize Database ] ───────► Connect to SQLite instance
+        │
+        ▼
+[ Run Migrations Automatically ]► Execute baseline schema + MigrationRunner
+        │
+        ▼
+[ Clean State Verification ] ──► Ensure schema tables exist & row count == 0
+        │
+        ▼
+[ Run Integration Test Suite ] ─► Tests run against isolated test DB
+        │
+        ▼
+[ Teardown & Clean Up ] ───────► db:test:clean removes test DB
+```
+
+---
+
+## 2. Scripts and Commands
+
+The environment is managed via utility scripts in `listener/src/scripts/`:
+
+### 1. Provision Test Database (`db:test:setup`)
+```bash
+npm run db:test:setup
+# Or directly:
+ts-node src/scripts/setup-test-db.ts
+```
+
+What this does:
+1. Deletes any pre-existing database files at `DATABASE_PATH` or `TEST_DATABASE_PATH`.
+2. Creates the database directory if needed.
+3. Initializes the SQLite schema (`schema.sql`).
+4. Discovers and applies all pending migrations in `listener/src/migrations/` in order.
+5. Verifies all tables exist and logs a summary of applied migrations.
+
+### 2. Clean Test Database (`db:test:clean`)
+```bash
+npm run db:test:clean
+# Or directly:
+ts-node src/scripts/clean-test-db.ts
+```
+
+What this does:
+- Safely closes open database connections and removes the SQLite database file and associated lock/journal files.
+
+### 3. Run Integration Tests with Clean Test DB
+```bash
+npm run test:ci-db
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. CI Pipeline Integration
+
+In GitHub Actions workflows (e.g. `.github/workflows/ci.yml`), the test database environment is provisioned as follows:
+
+```yaml
+jobs:
+  test-database-integration:
+    name: CI Test Database & Integration Tests
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    steps:
+      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
+
+      - name: Setup Node.js
+        uses: actions/setup-node@v4
+        with:
+          node-version: 20
+          cache: 'npm'
+          cache-dependency-path: listener/package-lock.json
+
+      - name: Install dependencies
+        working-directory: listener
+        run: npm ci
+
+      - name: Provision reproducible database & apply migrations
+        working-directory: listener
+        env:
+          DATABASE_PATH: ./data/test-notifications.db
+        run: npm run db:test:setup
+
+      - name: Verify migrations
+        working-directory: listener
+        run: npm run check-migrations
+
+      - name: Run integration tests
+        working-directory: listener
+        env:
+          DATABASE_PATH: ./data/test-notifications.db
+        run: npm test -- src/__tests__/integration.test.ts --silent
+
+      - name: Clean test database state
+        working-directory: listener
+        if: always()
+        run: npm run db:test:clean
+```
+
+---
+
+## 4. Programmatic Usage in Test Suites
+
+Test suites can also programmatically create isolated test environments using `listener/src/test-utils/test-db-environment.ts`:
+
+```typescript
+import { provisionTestDatabase, cleanTestDatabase } from '../test-utils/test-db-environment';
+import { Database } from '../database/database';
+
+describe('Integration Test Suite', () => {
+  let db: Database;
+  let dbPath: string;
+
+  beforeAll(async () => {
+    // Automatically provision clean DB with all migrations applied
+    const provisioned = await provisionTestDatabase({
+      dbPath: './data/test-suite.db',
+      runMigrations: true,
+    });
+    db = provisioned.db;
+    dbPath = provisioned.dbPath;
+  });
+
+  afterAll(async () => {
+    // Teardown and delete test database
+    await cleanTestDatabase(db, dbPath);
+  });
+
+  test('runs in clean state', async () => {
+    const rows = await db.all('SELECT COUNT(*) as count FROM scheduled_notifications');
+    expect(rows[0].count).toBe(0);
+  });
+});
+```
