Description

features/git_worktree_sandbox.feature defines 20 acceptance scenarios covering the full GitWorktreeSandbox lifecycle (create, path resolution, commit, rollback, cleanup, branch sanitisation, state transitions). These scenarios have Behave unit-test step implementations (features/steps/git_worktree_sandbox_steps.py) but no corresponding Robot Framework integration test file exists (robot/git_worktree_sandbox.robot is absent).

Every other major sandbox strategy has a Robot integration test:

robot/overlay_sandbox.robot ✓
robot/sandbox_boundary_algebra.robot ✓
robot/database_integration.robot ✓

GitWorktreeSandbox is the primary sandbox strategy for git-checkout resources and the highest-priority sandbox type per the specification's canonical write-target ordering (git_worktree > snapshot > copy_on_write > transaction_rollback).

Reproduction Steps

ls robot/ | grep -i worktree   # returns nothing
ls robot/ | grep -i git        # only tool_git_builtins.robot and resource_type_bootstrap_git.robot

Expected Behaviour

robot/git_worktree_sandbox.robot should exist and exercise the 20 scenarios at integration level, including:

Full worktree lifecycle with a real git repository
Merge-back on commit (verifying new_file.txt appears in original repo)
Rollback from COMMITTED state (verifying files are reverted in original repo)
Cleanup removes worktree directory and branch
Branch name sanitisation with special characters

Actual Behaviour

No Robot integration tests exist for GitWorktreeSandbox. The implementation is only verified by Behave unit tests, which use mocks for git subprocess calls. End-to-end correctness of real git worktree operations is not tested.

Evidence

ls robot/ | grep worktree → empty
features/git_worktree_sandbox.feature — 20 scenarios
features/steps/git_worktree_sandbox_steps.py — exists (unit-level Behave steps)
Compare: robot/overlay_sandbox.robot covers OverlaySandbox at integration level

Impact

The most critical sandbox strategy (git_worktree) has no integration-level test coverage. Real-world failures in worktree creation, merge-back, or cleanup would not be caught by CI.

✅ Verified — This is a valid test coverage gap. GitWorktreeSandbox is the primary sandbox strategy for git-checkout resources (highest priority per spec). Missing Robot Framework integration tests for 20 acceptance scenarios is a significant gap. Classified as MoSCoW/Must Have with Priority/High for v3.2.0 — test coverage ≥ 97% is a hard acceptance criterion.
