| 1 | +# CI Testing Guide |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +## Overview |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +This project uses socket-registry's centralized CI testing infrastructure. The solution provides: |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +- **🚨 MANDATORY**: Use `SocketDev/socket-registry/.github/workflows/ci.yml@main` for consistent CI |
| 8 | +- **Multi-platform testing**: Linux, Windows, and macOS support |
| 9 | +- **Multi-version Node.js matrix**: Test across Node.js 20, 22, and 24 |
| 10 | +- **Flexible configuration**: Customizable test scripts, timeouts, and artifact uploads |
| 11 | +- **Memory optimization**: Configured heap sizes for CI and local environments |
| 12 | +- **Cross-platform compatibility**: Handles Windows and POSIX path differences |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +**For socket-registry-specific package testing tools**, see `socket-registry/docs/CI_TESTING_TOOLS.md` and `socket-registry/docs/PACKAGE_TESTING_GUIDE.md`. These tools (`validate:packages`, `validate:ci`) are specific to socket-registry's package override structure. |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +## Workflow Structure |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +### Centralized CI Workflow |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +**🚨 MANDATORY**: Use `SocketDev/socket-registry/.github/workflows/ci.yml@main` for consistent CI across all Socket projects. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +**Key Features:** |
| 23 | +- Matrix testing across Node.js versions and operating systems |
| 24 | +- Parallel execution of lint, type-check, test, and coverage |
| 25 | +- Configurable scripts for project-specific requirements |
| 26 | +- Artifact upload support for coverage reports |
| 27 | +- Debug mode for verbose logging |
| 28 | +- Timeout protection for long-running tests |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +### Main Test Workflow |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +Located at `.github/workflows/test.yml`, this workflow calls socket-registry's reusable CI workflow: |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +```yaml |
| 35 | +jobs: |
| 36 | + test: |
| 37 | + uses: SocketDev/socket-registry/.github/workflows/ci.yml@main |
| 38 | + with: |
| 39 | + setup-script: 'pnpm run build:dist:src' |
| 40 | + node-versions: '[20, 22, 24]' |
| 41 | + os-versions: '["ubuntu-latest", "windows-latest", "macos-latest"]' |
| 42 | + test-script: 'pnpm run test:unit' |
| 43 | + lint-script: 'pnpm run check:lint' |
| 44 | + type-check-script: 'pnpm run check:tsc' |
| 45 | + timeout-minutes: 15 |
| 46 | +``` |
| 47 | +
|
| 48 | +**Note**: For projects still using local reusable workflows (`.github/workflows/_reusable-test.yml`), migrate to socket-registry's centralized workflow. |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +## Configuration Options |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +### Input Parameters |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +| Parameter | Description | Default | |
| 55 | +|-----------|-------------|---------| |
| 56 | +| `node-versions` | Array of Node.js versions to test | `[20, 22, 24]` | |
| 57 | +| `os-versions` | Array of operating systems | `["ubuntu-latest", "windows-latest"]` | |
| 58 | +| `test-script` | Test command to execute | `pnpm run test:unit` | |
| 59 | +| `setup-script` | Pre-test setup command | `pnpm run build:dist:src` | |
| 60 | +| `lint-script` | Lint command to execute | `pnpm run check:lint` | |
| 61 | +| `type-check-script` | Type check command to execute | `pnpm run check:tsc` | |
| 62 | +| `timeout-minutes` | Job timeout in minutes | `15` | |
| 63 | +| `upload-artifacts` | Upload test artifacts | `false` | |
| 64 | +| `fail-fast` | Cancel all jobs if one fails | `true` | |
| 65 | +| `max-parallel` | Maximum parallel jobs | `4` | |
| 66 | +| `continue-on-error` | Continue on job failure | `false` | |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +## CLI-Specific Testing Requirements |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +### Build Before Tests |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +**🚨 CRITICAL**: Always build before running tests: |
| 73 | +```bash |
| 74 | +pnpm run build:dist:src |
| 75 | +``` |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +The CLI relies on compiled TypeScript outputs in `dist/` directory. Tests will fail if build artifacts are missing or stale. |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +### Test File Patterns |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +- **Source tests**: `src/**/*.test.mts` |
| 82 | +- **Test naming**: Match source file (e.g., `cmd-scan.test.mts` for `cmd-scan.mts`) |
| 83 | +- **Update snapshots**: Use `pnpm run testu` (not `pnpm test -u`) |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +## Environment Variables |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +| Variable | Purpose | |
| 88 | +|----------|---------| |
| 89 | +| `CI` | Detect CI environment | |
| 90 | +| `NODE_OPTIONS` | Node.js runtime options | |
| 91 | +| `DEBUG` | Enable debug logging | |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +## Best Practices |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +### 1. Use Centralized Workflow |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +Always use socket-registry's centralized CI workflow for consistency: |
| 98 | +```yaml |
| 99 | +uses: SocketDev/socket-registry/.github/workflows/ci.yml@main |
| 100 | +``` |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | +### 2. Configure Timeouts |
| 103 | + |
| 104 | +Set appropriate timeouts for your test suite: |
| 105 | +```yaml |
| 106 | +timeout-minutes: 15 # CLI tests may take longer |
| 107 | +``` |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +### 3. Platform-Specific Tests |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +CLI tools need thorough cross-platform testing: |
| 112 | +- Linux: Primary development platform |
| 113 | +- Windows: Different path handling, shell behavior |
| 114 | +- macOS: Apple Silicon and Intel compatibility |
| 115 | + |
| 116 | +### 4. Build Artifacts |
| 117 | + |
| 118 | +Include `setup-script` to ensure fresh builds: |
| 119 | +```yaml |
| 120 | +setup-script: 'pnpm run build:dist:src' |
| 121 | +``` |
| 122 | + |
| 123 | +### 5. Debug Mode |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +Enable debug mode for troubleshooting: |
| 126 | +```yaml |
| 127 | +debug: '1' |
| 128 | +``` |
| 129 | + |
| 130 | +## Local Testing |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | +### Full Test Flow |
| 133 | +```bash |
| 134 | +# Build source files |
| 135 | +pnpm run build:dist:src |
| 136 | +
|
| 137 | +# Run all tests |
| 138 | +pnpm run test:unit |
| 139 | +
|
| 140 | +# Run with coverage |
| 141 | +pnpm run coverage |
| 142 | +``` |
| 143 | + |
| 144 | +### Run Specific Tests |
| 145 | +```bash |
| 146 | +# Test single file (after build) |
| 147 | +pnpm run test:unit src/commands/scan/cmd-scan.test.mts |
| 148 | +``` |
| 149 | + |
| 150 | +### Update Snapshots |
| 151 | +```bash |
| 152 | +# Update all snapshots |
| 153 | +pnpm run testu |
| 154 | +
|
| 155 | +# Update specific file |
| 156 | +pnpm run testu src/commands/scan/cmd-scan.test.mts |
| 157 | +``` |
| 158 | + |
| 159 | +### Run Linting and Type Checking |
| 160 | +```bash |
| 161 | +# Lint |
| 162 | +pnpm run check:lint |
| 163 | +
|
| 164 | +# Type check (uses tsgo) |
| 165 | +pnpm run check:tsc |
| 166 | +
|
| 167 | +# Run all checks |
| 168 | +pnpm run check |
| 169 | +``` |
| 170 | + |
| 171 | +### Run CLI Locally |
| 172 | +```bash |
| 173 | +# Build and run |
| 174 | +pnpm run build && pnpm exec socket |
| 175 | +
|
| 176 | +# Quick build (source only) and run |
| 177 | +pnpm run bs |
| 178 | +
|
| 179 | +# Run without rebuild |
| 180 | +pnpm run s |
| 181 | +``` |
| 182 | + |
| 183 | +## Troubleshooting |
| 184 | + |
| 185 | +### Build Artifacts Missing |
| 186 | + |
| 187 | +**Problem**: Tests fail with module resolution errors |
| 188 | + |
| 189 | +**Solution**: Run `pnpm run build:dist:src` before testing |
| 190 | + |
| 191 | +--- |
| 192 | + |
| 193 | +### Test Timeouts |
| 194 | + |
| 195 | +**Problem**: Tests timeout in CI |
| 196 | + |
| 197 | +**Solution**: |
| 198 | +1. Increase `timeout-minutes` in workflow |
| 199 | +2. Check for slow operations or hanging promises |
| 200 | +3. Review snapshot update times |
| 201 | + |
| 202 | +--- |
| 203 | + |
| 204 | +### Windows Path Issues |
| 205 | + |
| 206 | +**Problem**: Tests fail on Windows only |
| 207 | + |
| 208 | +**Solution**: |
| 209 | +1. Use `path.join()` instead of string concatenation |
| 210 | +2. Use `path.sep` instead of hard-coded `/` or `\` |
| 211 | +3. Check for POSIX-specific assumptions |
| 212 | + |
| 213 | +--- |
| 214 | + |
| 215 | +### Coverage Gaps |
| 216 | + |
| 217 | +**Problem**: Coverage reports show gaps |
| 218 | + |
| 219 | +**Solution**: |
| 220 | +1. Run `pnpm coverage` locally |
| 221 | +2. Review untested code paths |
| 222 | +3. Add tests for edge cases |
| 223 | + |
| 224 | +## Integration with socket-registry |
| 225 | + |
| 226 | +This project uses socket-registry's centralized CI infrastructure: |
| 227 | +- **CI Workflow**: `SocketDev/socket-registry/.github/workflows/ci.yml@main` |
| 228 | +- **Cross-platform compatibility**: Follows socket-registry guidelines |
| 229 | +- **Memory optimization**: Aligned with socket-registry patterns |
| 230 | +- **Build requirements**: Pre-test builds are CLI-specific |
| 231 | + |
| 232 | +**Socket-registry-specific tools**: The `validate:packages` and `validate:ci` scripts in socket-registry are specific to its package override structure and not applicable to CLI projects. See `socket-registry/docs/CI_TESTING_TOOLS.md` and `socket-registry/docs/PACKAGE_TESTING_GUIDE.md` for details. |
| 233 | + |
| 234 | +For consistency across Socket projects, follow the patterns established in socket-registry/CLAUDE.md and documented here. |
| 235 | + |
| 236 | +## CLI-Specific Notes |
| 237 | + |
| 238 | +### Shadow Binaries |
| 239 | + |
| 240 | +The `shadow-bin/` directory contains npm/npx wrapper scripts. These are not TypeScript files and don't require compilation. |
| 241 | + |
| 242 | +### TypeScript Native Support |
| 243 | + |
| 244 | +The `./sd` script uses Node.js 22+ native TypeScript support for faster local development iterations. |
| 245 | + |
| 246 | +### Build Output |
| 247 | + |
| 248 | +- **Source**: `dist/esm/` - Compiled TypeScript |
| 249 | +- **Types**: `dist/types/` - Type definitions |
| 250 | +- Both directories are required for tests to pass |
