    It is possible to test by calling the app or individual middleware directly, but that's done by using request/response mocks (for example, using node-mocks-http) and probably doesn't save much overhead when testing locally.

    Yes, but when every function handler is separate from the router, then you can use node-mocks-http to test each handler, to test the router is simpler to use supertest to write integration tests, for E2E tests I personally recommend [pactum](pactumjs.github.io/)

    It depends of how you mock the request and response that you passed to ExecutionContext because the response should be modified. I recommend you to use node-mocks-http

    Create a mock of the Repository that you're testing, it's the simplest one and the more cumbersome one, you can use a library like jest-create-mock-instance or jest-mock-extended or ts-auto-mock to create a mock from typings, but you're responsible to implement how it supposes to work.

    You can use something like jest-mock-extended or @golevelup/ts-jest to mock it, and whether your interceptor has dependencies or not, can be more complex or simpler how you instance it.
