Background and Context

A prior commit (8ea00f5185) removed or significantly reduced a large collection of end-to-end tests that were essential for validating CleverAgents functionality. These tests provided critical coverage of real-world workflows, integration scenarios, and edge cases that unit tests alone cannot verify.

Without these e2e tests, we lack confidence that the system works correctly in its intended operational contexts, including:

  • Multi-project workflows
  • Database migrations
  • Container-based execution environments
  • CLI end-to-end operations
  • Hierarchical project structures
  • Server mode execution
  • DevContainer integration

Current Behavior

The following e2e test files are missing or severely reduced:

  • robot/plan_diff_artifacts.robot
  • features/cli_main_cov3.feature
  • robot/e2e/m5_acceptance.robot
  • robot/e2e/wf04_multi_project.robot
  • robot/e2e/wf05_db_migration.robot
  • robot/e2e/wf12_hierarchical.robot
  • robot/e2e/wf16_devcontainer.robot
  • robot/e2e/wf17_explicit_container.robot
  • robot/e2e/m6_acceptance.robot
  • robot/e2e/wf07_cicd.robot
  • robot/e2e/wf18_container_clone.robot
  • robot/e2e/tdd_acms_behavioral_validation
  • robot/e2e/m1_acceptance.robot
  • robot/e2e/m2_acceptance.robot
  • robot/e2e/wf14_server_mode.robot
  • robot/tui_smoke.robot

Expected Behavior

All critical e2e tests must be restored and enhanced to:

  1. Go beyond simple "return code 0" checks
  2. Verify meaningful behavior and correct operation of workflows
  3. Test real system interactions and integration points
  4. Cover acceptance scenarios across all major milestones (M1, M2, M5, M6)
  5. Exercise DevContainer and containerized execution paths
  6. Validate multi-project and hierarchical workflows
  7. Pass consistently as part of the standard test pipeline

Acceptance Criteria

  • All 16+ missing e2e test files are restored to the repository
  • Tests include assertions beyond return codes (e.g., output validation, state verification, artifact inspection)
  • All e2e tests pass when executed via the project task runner
  • Test coverage meets or exceeds the project-defined threshold (>=97%)
  • Tests are properly organized in robot/e2e/ directory following project conventions
  • Tests document the workflows and scenarios they validate
  • CI pipeline includes e2e test execution as part of the standard quality gates

Supporting Information

  • Reference: Commit 8ea00f5185
  • Related Milestone: v3.2.0
  • Test Framework: Robot Framework
  • See CONTRIBUTING.md for e2e testing requirements and standards

  • Verify test coverage remains >=97% via nox -s coverage_report
  • Run nox (all default sessions), fix any errors

Definition of Done

This issue is complete when:

  • All subtasks above are completed and checked off.
  • All 16+ e2e test files are restored and present in the repository at their expected locations.
  • Each test file includes meaningful test scenarios with assertions that verify:
    • Correct command execution and output
    • State changes in the system (database, filesystem, etc.)
    • Integration between components
    • Acceptance criteria from relevant milestones
  • All e2e tests pass when executed via nox -s e2e_tests
  • Test coverage meets or exceeds 97% as verified by nox -s coverage_report
  • A single Git commit is created where the first line of the commit message is exactly:
    test: restore and enhance e2e test coverage
    
    followed by a blank line and additional lines describing the restoration work.
  • The commit is pushed to the remote on the branch test/restore-e2e-tests
  • The commit is submitted as a pull request to master, reviewed, and merged before this issue is marked complete.
  • The issue is transitioned to State/Completed after the PR is merged.
