Understanding CODITECT Test Results

Version: 1.0.0 Last Updated: December 22, 2025

Overview​

This guide explains how to interpret test results from the CODITECT test suite, including the current production results and common patterns.

Current Production Results​

As of December 10, 2025:

MetricValue
Total Tests4,714
Passed4,701
Failed0
Warnings0
Skipped13
Pass Rate100.0%
Duration~17 seconds

Test Status Interpretation​

PASS (✓)​

Test completed successfully. All assertions passed.

Example:

✓ Agent rust-expert-developer: valid structure

FAIL (✗)​

Critical failure that should block releases.

Example:

✗ Dockerfile main: missing FROM
    → No FROM instruction

Action: Fix immediately before merging.

WARN (⚠)​

Informational warning that doesn't block.

Example:

⚠ Unit test test_api: assertion failures
    → 5 passed, 2 failed

Action: Review and address when convenient.

SKIP (○)​

Test skipped because not applicable.

Example:

○ Mypy: not installed
    → Install with: pip install mypy

Action: No action required unless feature is needed.

Troubleshooting Failed Tests​

1. Read the Error Message​

✗ Dockerfile main: missing FROM
    → No FROM instruction

2. Check the File Path​

"file_path": "distribution/docker/Dockerfile"

3. Review the Category​

Each category has specific validation rules. See TEST-CATEGORIES.md.

4. Run Single Category​

python3 scripts/test-suite.py --category docker --verbose

5. Fix and Re-run​

# Make fix
python3 scripts/test-suite.py

Historical Improvements​

December 10, 2025 Session​

Before:

  • 19 failures (pytest issues, broken symlinks)
  • 57 warnings (various issues)
  • Pass rate: 99.2%

After:

  • 0 failures
  • 0 warnings
  • Pass rate: 100.0%

Key Fixes:

  1. Installed pytest dependencies in venv
  2. Fixed broken docker symlink
  3. Enhanced unit test handling (infrastructure vs assertions)
  4. Fixed .coditect submodule detection
  5. Made lint/type issues informational
  6. Fixed broken documentation links
  7. Added argparse to scripts
  8. Created .dockerignore

Best Practices​

Before Committing​

  1. Run python3 scripts/test-suite.py --quick
  2. Verify 100% pass rate
  3. Review any new warnings

For CI/CD​

  1. Run full test suite
  2. Upload test-results/ as artifacts
  3. Block merges on failures
  4. Alert on new warnings

For Debugging​

  1. Use --verbose flag
  2. Run single category
  3. Check file paths in results
  4. Review related documentation
