Testing Policy
This repository tests its configuration at defined seams. The tests run with bats; run them with ./tests/run.sh before every push.
Seams Under Test
| Seam | File | What it asserts |
|---|---|---|
| Compose validity | tests/compose_validity.bats |
YAML parses, services have images, no named volumes |
| Env consistency | tests/env_consistency.bats |
every ${VAR} is defined in .env.example; no real secrets; the live gitea password never appears |
| Caddyfile validity | tests/caddyfile.bats |
per-host Caddyfile, .local convention, balanced braces, basic auth present |
| Docs completeness | tests/docs_completeness.bats |
every compose service has a docs page; index links every page |
| Script syntax | tests/scripts_syntax.bats |
bash -n clean, executable bits, shellcheck when available |
| Deployment flow | tests/deployment_flow.bats, tests/deployment_scoping.bats |
scoped dispatcher exists, targets are known, service plans isolate inference, Caddy ownership is guarded, and SSH reachability is checked (skips offline) |
| Quadlet units | tests/*quadlet*.bats |
every unit is boot-persistent, self-healing, repo-provenanced, secret-free |
| E2E (browser) | tests/e2e/ + tests/e2e_scaffold.bats |
Playwright drives the live guard chain; the bats seam asserts structure and credential hygiene. See E2E Suite |
Focused pre-commit testing
For normal commits, use the focused wrapper:
./scripts/test-changed.sh
It reads staged paths with git diff --cached and runs only the mapped Bats
files. The tracked .githooks/pre-commit hook invokes this wrapper. Enable the
repository hook path once per checkout:
git config core.hooksPath .githooks
Use --list to inspect the selection without running tests, or --paths FILE ... to preview a mapping. Shared test infrastructure and unmapped paths fail
closed rather than silently skipping coverage. Run the full suite with
./tests/run.sh when changing shared test helpers, the test runner, or when
focused coverage is not sufficient.
Red-Green
Tests are written first. A failing test means the seam is not satisfied; the config change that makes it pass is the only acceptable fix. No --no-verify, no deleting tests without approval.
