# Testing Protocols
|
||
|
||
## 1. Execution Environment
|
||
* **No Truncation:** Never use pipe commands (e.g., `head`, `tail`) or flags that limit stdout/stderr. If a test hangs, it likely requires an interactive input or is caught in a loop; analyze the full output to identify the block.
|
||
* **Task-Based Execution:** Do not manually construct test strings. Use existing project tasks (e.g., `npm test`, `go test ./...`). If a specific sub-module requires frequent testing, generate a new task definition in the project's configuration file (e.g., `.vscode/tasks.json`) before proceeding.
|
||
|
||
## 2. Failure Analysis & Logic Integrity
|
||
* **Evidence-Based Debugging:** When a test fails, you must quote the specific error message or stack trace before suggesting a fix.
|
||
* **Bug vs. Test Flaw:** Treat the test as the "Source of Truth." If a test fails, assume the code is broken until proven otherwise. Research the original requirement or PR description to verify if the test logic itself is outdated before modifying it.
|
||
* **Zero-Hallucination Policy:** Only use file paths and identifiers discovered via the `ls` or `search` tools. Never guess a path based on naming conventions.
|
||
|
||
## 3. Coverage & Completion
|
||
* **Coverage Gate:** A task is not "Complete" until a coverage report is generated.
|
||
* **Threshold Compliance:** You must compare the final coverage percentage against the project's threshold (Default: 85% unless specified otherwise). If coverage drops, you must identify the "uncovered lines" and add targeted tests.
|
||
* **Patch Coverage Gate (Codecov):** If production code is modified, Codecov **patch coverage must be 100%** for the modified lines. Do not relax thresholds; add targeted tests.
|
||
* **Patch Triage Requirement:** Plans must include the exact missing/partial patch line ranges copied from Codecov’s **Patch** view.
