Test Environment Implementation - Complete Summary (moved to docs/test_env/)

This file has been moved to docs/test_env/TEST_ENV_IMPLEMENTATION.md - please refer to the docs directory for the latest content.

What Was Created

1. Test Environment Directory (test_env/)

A fully isolated testing directory with the following structure:

test_env/
├── README.md                    # Comprehensive documentation
├── fixtures/                    # Test data & samples
│   ├── archives/               # For test archive files
│   ├── ini_configs/            # For sample INI configs
│   └── OptiScaler.ini.sample   # Sample configuration
├── mock_games/                 # Mock game installations
├── cache/                      # Temporary cache (auto-generated)
│   ├── optiscaler_downloads/  # Downloaded test files
│   └── extracted/             # Extracted files
└── outputs/                    # Test results
    ├── logs/                  # Test execution logs
    └── reports/               # Test reports & results

2. Git Exclusion (.gitignore)

Added automatic exclusion:

# Test environment (local testing only, excluded from git)
test_env/

This ensures:

  • ✅ Test files never accidentally committed
  • ✅ Large binary files stay local
  • ✅ Cache doesn't pollute repository
  • ✅ Each developer has independent setup

3. Setup Scripts

PowerShell: setup_test_env.ps1

  • Modern cross-platform setup
  • Colorized output for clarity
  • Creates all directories and .gitkeep files
  • Validates execution from correct directory

Batch: setup_test_env.bat

  • Windows batch alternative
  • Simple, straightforward setup
  • Works on older Windows systems

Usage:

# PowerShell (recommended)
.\setup_test_env.ps1

# Or batch
setup_test_env.bat

4. Documentation Files

  • Complete test environment guide
  • Directory structure explanation
  • Testing patterns and examples
  • Troubleshooting section
  • CI/CD integration notes

docs/test_env/TEST_ENV_SETUP.md (Moved to docs/test_env)

  • Comments explaining each section
  • Based on official OptiScaler structure
  • Can be copied and customized for tests

How to Use

Initial Setup

# One time only
.\setup_test_env.ps1

Create Test Games

# Unreal Engine game
mkdir test_env\mock_games\MyGameUE\Engine\Binaries\Win64

# Standard game
mkdir test_env\mock_games\MyGameStd

Run Tests

# Individual test with test environment
python test_archive_extractor.py

# All tests
.\run_progress_tests.bat

# With environment variable
$env:TEST_ENV_PATH = ".\test_env"
python test_archive_extractor.py

Clean Cache

# Keep fixtures, remove cache
rm test_env\cache\optiscaler_downloads -r
rm test_env\cache\extracted -r
mkdir test_env\cache\optiscaler_downloads
mkdir test_env\cache\extracted

Testing Patterns Supported

Unit Testing

test_env = Path("./test_env")
fixture_data = test_env / "fixtures" / "archives"

Integration Testing

game_path = Path("./test_env/mock_games/TestGame")
manager = OptiScalerManager(download_dir=str(test_env / "cache"))

Manual Testing

game_scanner = GameScanner()
game_scanner.base_path = Path("./test_env/mock_games")

CI/CD Ready

The test environment can be integrated into CI/CD:

  1. Scripts create fresh test_env on each run
  2. Tests use test_env for isolation
  3. Results saved to test_env/outputs/
  4. No cache carries over between runs
  5. Can be uploaded as artifacts

Example CI setup provided in docs/test_env/TEST_ENV_SETUP.md.

Next Steps

  1. ✅ Test environment created and initialized
  2. 📝 Add your test data to test_env/fixtures/
  3. 🎮 Create mock games in test_env/mock_games/
  4. 🧪 Write tests using fixtures
  5. 📊 Review results in test_env/outputs/
  6. 🔄 Clean cache between test runs

Quick Start Checklist

  • Run .\setup_test_env.ps1
  • Read docs/test_env/TEST_ENV_SETUP.md for details
  • Create first mock game directory
  • Copy test archives to test_env/fixtures/archives/
  • Run a test with test environment
  • Check results in test_env/outputs/
