+These tests pin the contract that the `c-work/2-build/2026-05-postgres-connection-pool.md`
+refactor delivered:
+
+* T1 — 50 threads × 100 calls in parallel produce 0 `OperationalError`s and
+  every call completes within reasonable time (p99 < 2 s).
+* T2 — Two threads `_loadRecord` + `_saveRecord` against the same connector
+  do not corrupt each other's cursors.
+* T3 — `statement_timeout` aborts a runaway `pg_sleep(60)` after ~30 s and
+  releases the connection back into the pool cleanly.
+
+The tests need a real PostgreSQL server because the bug they guard against
+only materialises with real psycopg2 sockets — a mocked connection never
+hangs in `recv()`. They read DB credentials from `APP_CONFIG` (which loads
+`.env`) and are auto-skipped when the connection fails (no local Postgres,
+wrong creds, etc.) so `pytest` keeps working in CI-only environments.
+
+To run them locally:
+
+    pytest gateway/tests/unit/connectors/test_connectorDbPostgre_pool.py -v
+
+They use a throwaway database name (`poweron_pool_test_<uuid>`) and drop it
+in fixture teardown so they leave nothing behind.
