+
+# TEST009 – Recommendation Engine Functional Testing
+
+## Tests Performed
+1. Created a new test branch from main.
+2. Developed a test script (`scripts/test_recommendation_engine.js`) to run the backend recommendation engine with valid sample inputs.
+3. Ran the script using Node.js to simulate recommendations for a sample product and user profile.
+4. Verified that the recommendations matched the acceptance criteria for filtering and logical ranking.
+
+### Test Inputs
+- **Original Product:** Milk Chocolate (contains milk, high sugar/fat)
+- **User Profile:** Vegan, allergic to milk, avoids additive 621
+- **Candidate Products:** Dark Chocolate, Fruit Bar, White Chocolate
+
+### Results
+- **Recommendations Returned:**
+  - #1: Dark Chocolate (Score: 95, Safety: green, Reasons: Healthier, Safe, Vegan)
+  - #2: Fruit Bar (Score: 67.5, Safety: green, Reasons: Healthier, Safe)
+- **Filtering:** Products with allergens or not matching dietary preferences were filtered out as expected.
+- **Scoring:** Results were logically ranked by healthiness and user safety, with the highest scoring and safest products at the top.
+
+### Issues Found
+- No issues or errors were encountered during the test run. The engine performed as expected.
+
+### Changes Made
+- Added a new test script for functional backend testing.
+- Adjusted the script for compatibility with Node.js and the current codebase.
+
+### Acceptance Criteria
+- Correct recommendations were returned for valid inputs.
+- Results were logically ranked according to filtering and scoring logic.
