    public ?string $selectedDate = null;
    public ?string $selectedTime = null;
    public string $problemSummary = '';

    public function submit(): void
    {
        // Validation and submission logic from Story 3.4
    }

    public function canBookDate(string $date): bool
    {
        return !auth()->user()->consultations()
            ->whereDate('scheduled_date', $date)
            ->whereIn('status', ['pending', 'approved'])

File List

File	Action
`resources/views/components/layouts/app/sidebar.blade.php`	Modified - Added "Book Now" navigation item for clients
`lang/en/navigation.php`	Modified - Added `book_now` translation key
`lang/ar/navigation.php`	Modified - Added `book_now` translation key
`tests/Feature/Client/BookingSubmissionTest.php`	Modified - Added navigation visibility tests

Change Log

Added "Book Now" (plus-circle icon) navigation item to client sidebar
Added bilingual translation keys for "Book Now" / "احجز الآن"
Added 3 new tests for navigation visibility (client sees, admin doesn't see, link works)
Fixed current route check for My Consultations nav item (changed from wildcard to specific route)

Completion Notes

Most functionality already existed from Stories 3.3 (availability calendar) and 3.4 (booking submission)
The booking page (client/consultations/book.blade.php) was fully implemented with:
- Calendar with available dates (via livewire:availability-calendar)
- Time slot selection
- Problem summary form with validation (min 20, max 2000 chars)
- 1-per-day limit enforcement
- Confirmation step before submission
- Success message and redirect to consultations list
Dashboard already had quick access via "Book Consultation" button
Only missing piece was "Book Now" in the sidebar navigation
All 124 client tests pass

QA Results

Review Date: 2025-12-28

Reviewed By: Quinn (Test Architect)

Code Quality Assessment

Overall: Excellent - The implementation is clean, focused, and follows established patterns. The story correctly identified that most functionality already existed from Stories 3.3 and 3.4. The only new work was adding the "Book Now" navigation item and corresponding translations. The implementation is minimal yet complete.

Highlights:

Proper reuse of existing booking page component (no code duplication)
Correct use of Flux UI components for navigation
Bilingual translations properly added
Smart fix for current route check (changed from wildcard to specific route to avoid Book Now appearing active on My Consultations)

Refactoring Performed

None required - the implementation is well-structured and minimal.

Compliance Check

Coding Standards: ✓ Follows Blade/PHP formatting conventions
Project Structure: ✓ Translations in correct files, sidebar follows established patterns
Testing Strategy: ✓ 21 tests (3 new navigation tests + 18 existing booking tests), all pass
All ACs Met: ✓ See traceability below

Requirements Traceability

AC	Description	Test Coverage
Access
Quick access from dashboard	✓ Dashboard has "Book Consultation" button (`dashboard.blade.php:97-102`, `dashboard.blade.php:230-238`)
Book Now button in navigation	✓ `client sees book now link in navigation` test
Calendar View
Calendar showing available dates	✓ Existing `availability-calendar` component (Story 3.3)
Available time slots for selected date	✓ Existing component + `client cannot book unavailable slot` test
Booking Form
Selected date/time display	✓ `book.blade.php:159-169` - displays selected time with change button
Problem summary (required, textarea)	✓ `problem summary is required`, `min 20 chars`, `max 2000 chars` tests
Submit button	✓ `book.blade.php:225-232`
Validation
1 booking per day limit	✓ `client cannot book more than once per day` test
Warning if already booked	✓ Error displayed via `@error('selectedDate')`
Prevent booking unavailable slots	✓ `client cannot book unavailable slot` test
Submission Flow
Confirmation before submission	✓ `confirmation step displays before final submission` test
Success message with Pending status	✓ `success message shown after submission`, `booking is created with pending status` tests
Redirect to consultations list	✓ `authenticated client can submit booking request` asserts redirect

Improvements Checklist

Navigation "Book Now" item added with plus-circle icon
Route check fixed to use specific route (client.consultations.index) instead of wildcard
Bilingual translations added (EN: "Book Now", AR: "احجز الآن")
3 new navigation tests added covering visibility and functionality

No remaining items for dev to address.

Security Review

No security concerns. The booking submission:

Uses DB transactions with lockForUpdate() to prevent race conditions
Validates user authentication via middleware
Properly sanitizes problem summary via validation rules
Audit logging in place via AdminLog

Performance Considerations

No performance concerns. The implementation:

Uses existing calendar component (no additional queries)
Navigation uses efficient route checking
No N+1 query issues in the new code

Files Modified During Review

None - no changes required.
