Subject: [PATCH] Refactor request tests for clarity and structure

Issues Found:
1. Incorrect error expectation in app2 test
The test expects a 500 error with message containing "not a function" or "has no method", but the error message might be different in modern Node.js versions.

2. Missing error handling in middleware
Some routes don't handle errors properly.

3. Potential race condition in async tests
Using after(2, done) without ensuring both calls complete properly.

4. Inconsistent test structure
Some tests use .expect() with multiple arguments incorrectly.
