  • Commit Message: test: add TDD bug-capture test for #1079 — project context set missing flag
  • Branch: tdd/m5-context-exec-env-priority-flag

Background and Context

This is the TDD counterpart to bug #1079. Per the project's Test-Driven Development workflow for bugs (see CONTRIBUTING.md > Bug Fix Workflow), the first step in fixing any bug is to write a test that captures the buggy behavior. The test is tagged with @tdd_bug, @tdd_bug_1079, and @tdd_expected_fail so that it passes CI while the bug is still unfixed. Once the fix is implemented in #1079, the @tdd_expected_fail tag will be removed and the test will run normally.

See #1079 for full bug details.

Expected Behavior

A new test exists that:

  1. Captures the exact failure described in #1079.
  2. Is tagged with @tdd_bug, @tdd_bug_1079, and @tdd_expected_fail.
  3. Passes CI via the expected-failure mechanism (the underlying assertion fails, confirming the bug exists, but the tag inversion causes the test to pass).
  4. Would fail CI if the bug were fixed without removing the @tdd_expected_fail tag.

Acceptance Criteria

  • A test is written that captures the bug behavior described in #1079.
  • The test is tagged with @tdd_bug, @tdd_bug_1079, and @tdd_expected_fail.
  • The @tdd_expected_fail tag causes the test to pass CI (the underlying assertion fails as expected, proving the bug exists).
  • The test is specific enough that it will pass normally (without the tag) only when the bug is genuinely fixed.
  • Tag validation rules pass: @tdd_bug_1079 has corresponding @tdd_bug, and @tdd_expected_fail has both.
  • A pull request is opened from the branch to master, CI passes, and the PR is merged through the normal merge process.

Definition of Done

This issue is complete when:

  • All subtasks below are completed and checked off.
  • A Git commit is created where the first line of the commit message matches the Commit Message in Metadata exactly, followed by a blank line, then additional lines providing relevant details about the test and what bug behavior it captures.
  • The commit is pushed to the remote on the branch matching the Branch in Metadata exactly.
  • The commit is submitted as a pull request to master, reviewed, CI passes, and the PR is merged before this issue is marked done.

Subtasks

  • Code: Analyze bug #1079 to identify the exact failure condition, including the inputs, state, and code path that trigger the bug.
  • Code: Determine the appropriate test type (Behave unit test, Robot integration test, or both) and file location for the reproducing test.
  • Tests (Behave): Write a Behave scenario in features/ that captures the bug. Tag the scenario with @tdd_bug, @tdd_bug_1079, and @tdd_expected_fail. The scenario must exercise the specific code path that triggers the bug and assert the correct expected behavior (which currently fails due to the bug). Name the scenario descriptively to indicate it is a bug regression test.
  • Tests (Robot): If the bug involves integration-level behavior, add a Robot test in robot/ with equivalent tags. If purely unit-level, mark N/A with justification.
  • Docs: Add a comment in the test file explaining this test captures bug #1079 and uses @tdd_expected_fail until the fix is merged.
  • Quality: Verify CI passes with the tagged test. Confirm the underlying assertion fails for the correct reason.
  • Quality: Verify tag validation rules pass.
  • Quality: Verify coverage >=97% via nox -s coverage_report. If coverage is <97% then review the current unit test coverage report at build/coverage.xml and use it to write new Behave based unit tests to improve code coverage.
  • Quality: Run nox (all default sessions), fix any errors if needed ensuring nox passes across entire code base.

Implementation Notes

Bug Analysis

Bug #1079 confirmed: project context set in cleveragents.cli.commands.project_context.context_set() does not accept --execution-env-priority. Passing the flag produces "No such option: --execution-env-priority" (exit code 2). The spec (§Execution Environment Routing, precedence table) requires this flag at project level (precedence level 2) accepting fallback|override.

Tests Written

Behave (6 scenarios) in features/project_context_set_exec_env_priority.feature:

  • Override/fallback acceptance with persistence checks
  • Priority-without-environment rejection
  • Default-to-fallback when only --execution-environment specified
  • Invalid value rejection
  • Show persistence round-trip

Robot (3 tests) in robot/project_context_set_exec_env_priority.robot:

  • Override/fallback acceptance with persistence
  • Full round-trip verification

All tagged @tdd_bug @tdd_bug_1079 @tdd_expected_fail. Tests use CliRunner (Typer test client) to invoke via CLI argument list, ensuring clean AssertionError failures that the expected-fail mechanism correctly inverts.

Quality Gates

  • lint: PASS
  • typecheck: PASS (0 errors)
  • unit_tests: PASS — 462 features, 12236 scenarios, 0 failed
  • integration_tests: My 3 tests PASS (13 pre-existing failures unrelated)
  • coverage_report: PASS — 98% (threshold 97%)
  • e2e_tests: Pre-existing failures only (API key dependent)
