### **Coverage Standards (Toyota Way)**
- **Minimum**: 80% line coverage (enforced by pre-commit hooks)
- **Target**: 90% line coverage (aspirational)
- **Current fmt command**: 87.80% ✅
## Available Commands
### **Primary Test Suite**
```bash
make test-ruchy-commands # Run all CLI tests (733ms total)
```
### **Individual Test Categories**
```bash
make test-cli-integration # Integration tests (176ms)
make test-cli-properties # Property tests (193ms)
make test-cli-coverage # Coverage analysis (48s)
make test-cli-performance # Performance benchmarking
```
### **Coverage & Performance**
```bash
make test-cli-coverage # Generate coverage report
./scripts/cli_coverage.sh # Detailed coverage analysis
./scripts/performance_analysis.sh # Performance breakdown
```
## Test Categories Explained
### **1. Integration Tests** (`tests/cli_integration.rs`)
**End-to-end testing of CLI commands with real files**
```bash
cargo test --test cli_integration
```
**Coverage:**
- ✅ Happy path scenarios
- ✅ Error handling (missing files, invalid syntax)
- ✅ Complex expressions and edge cases
- ✅ Idempotency verification
**Example Test:**
```rust
#[test]
fn test_fmt_formats_simple_function() {
let temp_dir = TempDir::new().unwrap();
let test_file = temp_dir.path().join("test.ruchy");
fs::write(&test_file, "fun test(x:i32)->i32{x*2}").unwrap();
Command::cargo_bin("ruchy").unwrap()
.args(["fmt", test_file.to_str().unwrap()])
.assert()
.success();
let formatted = fs::read_to_string(&test_file).unwrap();
assert!(formatted.contains("fun test(x: i32) -> i32"));
}
```
### **2. Property Tests** (`tests/cli_properties.rs`)
**Mathematical invariants that must always hold**
```bash
cargo test --test cli_properties
```
**Verified Properties:**
- **Idempotency**: `format(format(x)) == format(x)`
- **Function name preservation**: Names never corrupted
- **Operator preservation**: Semantic structure maintained
- **Determinism**: Same input → identical output
- **Control flow preservation**: if/else structures maintained
**Example Property:**
```rust
#[test]
fn prop_fmt_idempotent() {
let test_cases = [
"fun test() -> i32 { 42 }",
"fun add(x: i32, y: i32) -> i32 { x + y }",
// ... more cases
];
for code in test_cases {
// Format twice, results must be identical
assert_eq!(format_once(code), format_twice(code));
}
}
```
### **3. Executable Examples** (`examples/fmt_example.rs`)
**Runnable documentation with built-in tests**
```bash
cargo run --example fmt_example
```
**Scenarios Covered:**
- Basic function formatting
- Complex expression formatting
- Multiple functions
- Error handling demonstration
### **4. Fuzz Tests** (`fuzz/fuzz_targets/`)
**Random input testing for robustness**
```bash
# Requires nightly Rust
cargo +nightly fuzz run fuzz_fmt
cargo +nightly fuzz run fuzz_cli
```
**Targets:**
- `fuzz_fmt.rs`: Tests fmt command with random inputs
- `fuzz_cli.rs`: Tests CLI interface with random inputs
## Quality Gates (Pre-commit Hooks)
**Gate 16: CLI Coverage Check** (MANDATORY)
- Enforces ≥80% coverage for CLI commands
- Blocks commits below threshold
- Uses quick coverage analysis mode
```bash
# Triggered automatically on git commit
# Or run manually:
./scripts/cli_coverage.sh --quick
```
## Performance Standards
### **Toyota Way Performance Metrics**
| Integration Tests | 176ms | <1s | ✅ |
| Property Tests | 193ms | <1s | ✅ |
| Total Test Suite | 733ms | <120s | ✅ |
| Coverage Analysis | 48.9s | <60s | ✅ |
### **Benchmarking**
```bash
make test-cli-performance # Uses hyperfine for precise timing
```
## Adding New CLI Commands
### **Step 1: Integration Tests**
Create tests in `tests/cli_integration.rs`:
```rust
mod your_command_tests {
#[test]
fn test_your_command_happy_path() {
// Test successful execution
}
#[test]
fn test_your_command_error_handling() {
// Test error scenarios
}
#[test]
fn test_your_command_edge_cases() {
// Test boundary conditions
}
}
```
### **Step 2: Property Tests**
Add to `tests/cli_properties.rs`:
```rust
#[test]
fn prop_your_command_invariant() {
// Test mathematical properties that must always hold
}
```
### **Step 3: Executable Example**
Create `examples/your_command_example.rs`:
```rust
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
println!("🎯 Your Command Examples");
// Demonstrate usage with real examples
}
```
### **Step 4: Coverage Target**
Ensure your command achieves ≥80% line coverage.
## Troubleshooting
### **Coverage Below 80%**
```bash
# Detailed coverage report
make test-cli-coverage
# Open HTML report
open target/cli-coverage/html/index.html
# Add missing tests for uncovered lines
```
### **Slow Tests**
```bash
# Performance analysis
./scripts/performance_analysis.sh
# Individual component timing
time cargo test --test cli_integration
```
### **Failing Tests**
```bash
# Verbose output
cargo test --test cli_integration -- --nocapture
# Run specific test
cargo test test_fmt_formats_simple_function
```
