Testing Practices

Test-Driven Development (TDD)

All development in morphir-dotnet follows TDD:

  1. RED: Write a failing test first
  2. GREEN: Write minimal code to pass the test
  3. REFACTOR: Improve code while keeping tests green

Test Types

TypeFrameworkPurpose
Unit TestsTUnitIndividual component testing
BDD TestsReqnrollBehavior specification and acceptance
Property TestsFsCheckProperty-based verification
Integration TestsTUnitCross-component integration

Coverage Requirements

  • Minimum Coverage: 80% for all new code
  • Critical Paths: 100% coverage for IR handling, validation, and CLI commands
  • Regression Prevention: All bug fixes require accompanying tests

Running Tests

# Run all tests
dotnet test --nologo

# Run with coverage
dotnet test --collect:"XPlat Code Coverage"

# Run specific test project
dotnet test tests/Morphir.Core.Tests

1 - Phase 1 Test Plan

Test plan for Phase 1 of the Deployment Architecture Refactor

Phase 1 Test Plan: Project Structure & Build Organization

Issue: #209 PR: #214 Status: Merged to main (commit 331e327) Test Plan Date: 2025-12-18

Executive Summary

This test plan validates the complete and correct implementation of Phase 1 of the Deployment Architecture Refactor epic (#208). Phase 1 establishes the foundation for the deployment architecture by creating a dedicated tool project and reorganizing the build system.

Test Objectives

  1. Verify Morphir.Tool project is correctly configured as a dotnet tool
  2. Validate build system refactoring using vertical slice architecture
  3. Confirm deprecated code removal without breaking existing functionality
  4. Test CI workflow simulation targets work locally
  5. Verify package generation for all four packages (Core, Tooling, Morphir, Tool)
  6. Validate Windows build fixes resolve file locking issues
  7. Confirm documentation completeness for all build targets

Scope

In Scope

  • All tasks from issue #209
  • All changes from PR #214
  • Verification of BDD acceptance tests from issue #209
  • Validation of verification checklist from issue #209
  • Testing requirements from issue #209
  • Definition of Done criteria from issue #209

Out of Scope

  • Phase 2 and Phase 3 features (separate issues)
  • Runtime behavior of generated packages (covered by E2E tests)
  • Performance benchmarking (not required for Phase 1)

Implementation Analysis

Changes Implemented

PR #214 implemented the following changes:

  1. New Morphir.Tool Project (Task 1.1)

    • Location: src/Morphir.Tool/
    • AssemblyName: dotnet-morphir
    • ToolCommandName: dotnet-morphir (follows dotnet convention)
    • PackageId: Morphir.Tool
    • Delegates to Morphir.Program.Main() (no code duplication)
  2. Updated Morphir Project (Task 1.2)

    • AssemblyName: morphir (lowercase)
    • IsPackable: true (changed from original plan to support NuGet/GitHub releases)
    • Made Program class public for delegation
    • AOT and trimming settings preserved
  3. Build.cs Split (Task 1.3)

    • build/Build.Packaging.cs - PackLibs, PackTool, PackAll
    • build/Build.Publishing.cs - PublishLibs, PublishTool, PublishAll, PublishLocal*
    • build/Build.Testing.cs - Test, BuildE2ETests, TestE2E, GenerateWolverineCode
    • build/Build.CI.cs - CILint, CITest, DevWorkflow (NEW)
    • build/Build.cs - Core targets (Clean, Restore, Compile, CI, etc.)
  4. Helper Classes (Task 1.4)

    • Status: NOT IMPLEMENTED
    • Rationale: Deferred as unnecessary at this stage
    • Impact: None, targets work without helpers
  5. Deprecated Code Removal (Task 1.5)

    • Removed scripts/pack-tool-platform.cs
    • Removed scripts/build-tool-dll.cs
    • Updated NUKE_MIGRATION.md
    • Updated README.md
  6. Build Targets Updated (Task 1.6)

    • PackTool builds Morphir.Tool.csproj
    • PublishTool uses Morphir.Tool.*.nupkg glob
    • Added .After(PackLibs) to prevent directory conflicts
    • All 23+ targets documented with XML comments
  7. Windows Build Fixes (Additional)

    • Removed problematic GenerateWolverineCode MSBuild target
    • Created Nuke-based GenerateWolverineCode target
    • Re-enabled parallel builds
    • Fixed circular build dependencies
  8. CI Workflow Simulation (Additional)

    • DevWorkflow - Complete CI pipeline locally
    • CILint - Lint checks only
    • CITest - Build and tests only

Deviations from Original Plan

Original RequirementImplementationRationale
IsPackable=false for MorphirIsPackable=trueSupport NuGet/GitHub releases alongside AOT executables

Definition of Done Verification

From issue #209, Phase 1 is complete when:

  • All tasks completed and checked off (see Task Status below)
  • All BDD scenarios passing (BDD-001, BDD-002, BDD-003)
  • All verification checklist items completed (VC-001, VC-002)
  • Code follows Morphir conventions (AGENTS.md) - PR reviewed and merged
  • No build warnings related to changes - PR CI passed
  • PR ready for review - PR #214 merged

Task Status

Task 1.1: Create Morphir.Tool Project ✅

  • Create src/Morphir.Tool/ directory
  • Create Morphir.Tool.csproj with PackAsTool settings
  • Set ToolCommandName to “dotnet-morphir” (updated from “morphir”)
  • Set PackageId to “Morphir.Tool”
  • Add project references to Morphir (added), Morphir.Core, and Morphir.Tooling
  • Create minimal Program.cs that delegates to Morphir.Program.Main() (updated approach)
  • Add to solution file

Implementation Note: Tool name follows dotnet convention (dotnet-morphir) and delegates to public Morphir.Program instead of duplicating code.

Task 1.2: Update Morphir Project ✅

  • Verify AssemblyName="morphir" (lowercase)
  • Set IsPackable=true (changed from false to support NuGet/GitHub releases)
  • Ensure AOT and trimming settings remain
  • Make Program class public (changed from unchanged)

Implementation Note: Morphir is now packable to support independent versioning and deployment alongside AOT executables.

Task 1.3: Split Build.cs ✅

  • Create build/Build.Packaging.cs (PackLibs, PackTool, PackAll targets)
  • Create build/Build.Publishing.cs (PublishLibs, PublishTool, PublishAll targets + local variants)
  • Create build/Build.Testing.cs (Test, BuildE2ETests, TestE2E, GenerateWolverineCode targets)
  • Create build/Build.CI.cs (CILint, CITest, DevWorkflow targets - ADDED)
  • Update Build.cs as main entry point (parameters, core config, main targets)
  • Verify all targets accessible via ./build.sh --help

Implementation Note: Added Build.CI.cs with CI workflow simulation targets not in original plan.

Task 1.4: Create Helper Classes ❌ DEFERRED

  • Create build/Helpers/ directory
  • Create PackageValidator.cs (ValidateToolPackage, ValidateLibraryPackage)
  • Create ChangelogHelper.cs (GetVersion, GetReleaseNotes, PrepareRelease)
  • Create PathHelper.cs (FindLatestPackage)
  • Add unit tests for helpers (optional in this phase)

Status: NOT IMPLEMENTED Rationale: Helpers deemed unnecessary at this stage. Build targets work without them. Can be added in future if needed. Impact: None - no functionality blocked

Task 1.5: Remove Deprecated Code ✅

  • Delete scripts/pack-tool-platform.cs
  • Delete scripts/build-tool-dll.cs
  • Remove references from documentation (README.md)
  • Update NUKE_MIGRATION.md to note removal

Task 1.6: Update Build Targets ✅

  • Fix PackTool to build Morphir.Tool.csproj
  • Fix PublishTool glob pattern to Morphir.Tool.*.nupkg
  • Test locally: ./build.sh PackTool
  • Verify package created: artifacts/packages/Morphir.Tool.*.nupkg
  • Add .After(PackLibs) to prevent directory cleaning conflict (ADDED FIX)

Implementation Note: Added dependency ordering to prevent PackAll from having directory conflicts.

Additional Tasks Completed (Not in Original Plan)

Windows Build Fix ✅

  • Remove GenerateWolverineCode MSBuild target from Directory.Build.targets
  • Create Nuke-based GenerateWolverineCode target in Build.Testing.cs
  • Update trimmed publish targets to depend on GenerateWolverineCode
  • Re-enable parallel builds

Rationale: Fixed root cause of Windows file locking issues (circular build dependencies)

Comprehensive Documentation ✅

  • Add XML doc comments to all 23+ build targets
  • Document parameters (–rid, –version, –api-key, etc.)
  • Document output locations
  • Document dependencies

Rationale: Makes build system self-documenting via ./build.sh --help

CI Workflow Simulation ✅

  • Create DevWorkflow target (complete CI pipeline)
  • Create CILint target (lint checks only)
  • Create CITest target (build and tests only)

Rationale: Allows local validation before pushing to PR, improves developer experience

Known Issues & Follow-ups

Issues to File

Based on deviations and incomplete tasks:

  1. Helper Classes Not Implemented (Low Priority)

    • Title: Add build helper classes for package validation and changelog management
    • Labels: enhancement, build-system, nice-to-have
    • Description: Task 1.4 from Phase 1 was deferred. Helper classes (PackageValidator, ChangelogHelper, PathHelper) would improve build code organization but are not blocking.
    • Epic: #208
  2. Unit Tests for Build System (Low Priority)

    • Title: Add unit tests for Nuke build targets
    • Labels: testing, build-system, nice-to-have
    • Description: Build targets currently tested manually and via CI. Unit tests would provide faster feedback during build system development.
    • Epic: #208

2 - GitHub Copilot Skill Emulation Test Plan

Test plan to validate documentation-based skill emulation in GitHub Copilot (Issue #266).

GitHub Copilot Skill Emulation Test Plan

Objective

Validate that morphir-dotnet skills (QA Tester, AOT Guru, Release Manager) are discoverable and usable in GitHub Copilot via documentation-based emulation, including running automation scripts and following playbooks.

Scope

  • Skills: QA Tester, AOT Guru, Release Manager
  • Agent: GitHub Copilot (VS Code)
  • Artifacts: Conversation transcripts, pass/fail report, documentation updates

Test Matrix

  • Discovery: List available skills and locations
  • Invocation: Follow SKILL.md guidance on request
  • Scripts: Provide and run script commands
  • Playbooks: Walk through sequential steps
  • Decision Trees: Apply logic from SKILL.md

BDD Scenarios

Feature: Skill Discovery in GitHub Copilot

  • Scenario: User requests list of available skills
    • Given Copilot is active in morphir-dotnet
    • When the user asks “What skills are available in this project?”
    • Then Copilot references .agents/skills-reference.md
    • And lists QA Tester, AOT Guru, Release Manager with short descriptions
    • And includes links to SKILL.md files

Feature: Skill Alias Understanding

  • Scenario: User asks about skill aliases
    • When the user asks “Can I use @skill qa instead of @skill qa-tester?”
    • Then Copilot explains aliases are documentation-only
    • And clarifies @skill is Claude-specific
    • And suggests reading .claude/skills/qa-tester/skill.md

Feature: QA Tester Skill Emulation

  • Scenario: Create test plan using QA Tester
    • Given PR acceptance criteria exists
    • When the user asks “Use the QA Tester skill to create a test plan for PR #123”
    • Then Copilot reads .claude/skills/qa-tester/skill.md
    • And produces a plan covering happy paths, edge cases, errors, priorities, and execution scripts

Feature: Skill Script Execution

  • Scenario: Run smoke test script from QA Tester
    • When the user asks “How do I run the smoke test script from QA Tester?”
    • Then Copilot references .claude/skills/qa-tester/scripts/
    • And provides the command dotnet fsi .claude/skills/qa-tester/scripts/smoke-test.fsx
    • And explains expected behavior and outcomes

Feature: Playbook Navigation

  • Scenario: Follow regression testing playbook
    • When the user asks “Walk me through the regression testing playbook”
    • Then Copilot outlines steps from SKILL.md in order
    • And includes commands and validation criteria for each step

Acceptance Criteria

  • Copilot lists all skills with correct locations
  • Copilot follows SKILL.md guidance to produce outputs
  • Copilot provides correct script commands and context
  • Copilot can enumerate playbook steps with validation criteria
  • Documentation includes Copilot usage and examples

Execution Notes

  • Recommended prompts:

    • “Use the QA Tester skill to create a test plan for PR #123”
    • “Apply AOT Guru guidance to optimize binary size”
    • “Follow Release Manager playbook to prepare v1.0.0”

Copilot Skill Emulation Scenarios Runner

Use this guide to execute each scenario in VS Code with GitHub Copilot and capture transcripts.

Setup

  1. Open morphir-dotnet repository in VS Code
  2. Open GitHub Copilot chat (Ctrl+Shift+I)
  3. For each scenario:
    • Copy the Prompt below
    • Paste into Copilot and send
    • Record the response (screenshot or copy-paste)
    • Assess Pass/Fail Criteria
    • Document in Execution Report

Scenario 1: Skill Discovery

Prompt

What skills are available in this project?

Expected Output (Pass Criteria)

Copilot should:

  • ✅ Reference .agents/skills-reference.md
  • ✅ List: QA Tester, AOT Guru, Release Manager
  • ✅ Provide brief descriptions for each
  • ✅ Include file paths (e.g., .claude/skills/qa-tester/SKILL.md)

Example Response

The morphir-dotnet project provides three specialized skills:

1. **QA Tester** - Comprehensive QA testing and verification
   - Location: .claude/skills/qa-tester/skill.md
   - Use for: Test plan design, regression testing, coverage monitoring

2. **AOT Guru** - Native AOT and trimming optimization
   - Location: .claude/skills/aot-guru/skill.md
   - Use for: Single-file executables, binary size optimization

3. **Release Manager** - Release lifecycle management
   - Location: .claude/skills/release-manager/skill.md
   - Use for: Version management, changelog, release workflows

See .agents/skills-reference.md for detailed usage patterns per agent.

Status: [ ] Pass [ ] Fail

  • Notes: ________________________________________

Scenario 2: Skill Alias Understanding

Prompt

Can I use @skill qa instead of @skill qa-tester?

Expected Output (Pass Criteria)

Copilot should:

  • ✅ Explain aliases are documentation-only (not functional in Copilot)
  • ✅ Clarify @skill is Claude Code-specific
  • ✅ Suggest reading .claude/skills/qa-tester/skill.md directly
  • ✅ Provide alternative: use natural language like “Use QA Tester skill to…”

Example Response

No, in GitHub Copilot you cannot use `@skill qa` or aliases.

Here's why:
- `@skill` is a Claude Code-only feature
- Aliases are documented for reference but are not functional in Copilot
- Skills Reference may mention short forms (qa, tester) but these don't work with @

**For Copilot instead, use natural language:**
- "Use the QA Tester skill to create a test plan for PR #123"
- "Apply QA Tester guidance to validate this PR"
- Read directly: .claude/skills/qa-tester/skill.md

See AGENTS.md section "GitHub Copilot Usage Guide (Skill Emulation)" for more.

Status: [ ] Pass [ ] Fail

  • Notes: ________________________________________

Scenario 3: QA Tester Skill - Create Test Plan

Prompt

Use the QA Tester skill to create a test plan for this PR:
- Title: Add JSON schema verification for IR v3
- Changes: New VerifyIR handler for JSON validation
- Files: src/Morphir.Tooling/Features/VerifyIR/VerifyIR.cs

What should we test?

Expected Output (Pass Criteria)

Copilot should:

  • ✅ Reference .claude/skills/qa-tester/skill.md (“Test Plan Development”)
  • ✅ Cover: happy paths, edge cases, errors, priorities, execution approach
  • ✅ Include test cases with steps and assertions
  • ✅ Suggest automation scripts to run

Example Response (Truncated)

Based on the QA Tester skill, here's a comprehensive test plan for PR "Add JSON schema verification":

## Test Plan: IR JSON Schema Verification

### Happy Path (Priority: Critical)
1. Valid IR v3 JSON file
   - Steps: Run `VerifyIR valid-ir-v3.json`
   - Expected: Success, JSON output shows IsValid=true
2. Valid IR v2 JSON file
   - Expected: Detection should identify v2, validate against v2 schema

### Edge Cases (Priority: High)
1. Empty JSON file
   - Expected: Returns validation error, friendly message
2. Malformed JSON (missing closing brace)
   - Expected: JSON exception caught, validation error returned
3. Large IR file (>100MB)
   - Expected: Handles gracefully, no memory issues

### Error Conditions (Priority: High)
1. File not found
   - Expected: Exit code 2, error message
2. Permission denied
   - Expected: Handled gracefully

### Automation
- Run: `dotnet fsi .claude/skills/qa-tester/scripts/smoke-test.fsx`
- Full E2E: `dotnet fsi .claude/skills/qa-tester/scripts/regression-test.fsx`
