testing_conventions/co_change.rs
1//! The commit-scoped `co-change` check: a source file that changed in a
2//! git diff must change its colocated test too.
3//!
4//! Convention: when a source file is **modified** (e.g. a function removed from
5//! `foo.py`) or **deleted** in a commit range, its colocated test — the
6//! pairing, `foo.py` → `foo_test.py`, `foo.ts` → `foo.test.ts` — must also be in
7//! that diff. This catches edits and removals that leave the test silently stale.
8//! A modification counts when it changes the code the compiler sees: the file at the
9//! merge base and the file at HEAD are compared with comments and formatting
10//! whitespace normalized away ([`Language::same_code`]), so a comment reword or a
11//! whitespace sweep leaves the test current and passes.
12//! *Added* source files are not subjects: brand-new code is the coverage floor's
13//! job, not this one. A **deletion** is a subject only if the source *had* a
14//! colocated test in the base tree — a package barrel (`__init__.py`, `index.ts`)
15//! with no sibling test can be deleted without one appearing in the diff, so it is
16//! not flagged and needs no exemption.
17//!
18//! [`stale_sources`] walks `git diff --name-status <base>...HEAD` for a
19//! [`Language`] and returns every changed source file whose colocated test did
20//! not co-change. A file listed in the config `exempt` table (rule `co-change`)
21//! is a deliberate, reason-required omission. Rust has no sibling test file —
22//! units are inline `#[cfg(test)]` in the same `.rs` — so the rule is
23//! Python/TypeScript only (the CLI rejects `--language rust`).

37/// A source file is a subject when it was **modified** into a different program while
38/// still declaring behavior ([`Language::is_subject`], the predicate the presence rule
39/// reads, and [`Language::same_code`], which reads what the edit changed), or **deleted**
40/// while it *had* a colocated test in the base tree (the test now at risk of being
41/// orphaned); an **added** file is not (new code is the coverage floor's concern),
42/// nor is a deleted barrel that never had a sibling test.
43/// A subject whose `repo`-relative path is in `exempt` is a deliberate omission and
44/// is skipped. Everything else must have its colocated test (`foo.py` →
45/// `foo_test.py`, per `language`) somewhere in the same diff.
46///
47/// Returns an error if `git diff` fails — e.g. `base` names no resolvable ref —
48/// so an un-diffable range surfaces rather than silently passing as "clean".
