<context>
Integration tests live in `tests/` and exercise the API binary against a temporary SQLite database. They run with `cargo test` and must not require a running Cloudflare environment. The test harness spawns the API server on a random port and returns the base URL.
</context>

<goal>
Write the `GET /api/quotes/random` test suite in `tests/test_random_quote.rs` (or similar). Test cases:
1. 200 with a valid quote object when the database has quotes
2. 404 with `{"error": "..."}` when the database is empty
</goal>

<constraints>
- Use the shared test harness from ticket 9b581f.
- Test the 404 case against a fresh empty database (no seeded quotes).
- For the 200 case, seed at least one quote first.
</constraints>

<skills>
Use `superpowers:verification-before-completion` before closing.
</skills>

<validation>
Run in order from the `quotesdb/` directory:

```sh
cargo fmt
cargo check
cargo clippy
cargo test
```
</validation>
