`scripts/run_tests.sh tests/<dir>/` is how a change gets its regression
coverage run, so a test filed under the wrong directory is a test nobody
runs when that code changes. Two kinds of drift had accumulated.
Parallel directories for one source package, folded into the mirror:
tests/acp -> tests/acp_adapter (its __init__/conftest move with it)
tests/cli -> tests/hermes_cli (prompt_toolkit fixture merged into
hermes_cli/conftest.py)
tests/run_agent -> tests/agent (backoff fixture becomes
agent/conftest.py)
tests/relay -> tests/gateway/relay
tests/state -> tests/hermes_state
246 loose files at tests/ root, routed by the package they import/patch:
hermes_cli, hermes_state, agent, gateway, tools, plugins, tui_gateway, cron.
Installer and desktop-update script tests go to tests/scripts/{install,
desktop_update}/. 43 tests of root-level modules (batch_runner, utils,
hermes_constants, packaging) stay at the root.
Filenames drop their issue numbers (95 files: test_89315_x.py -> test_x.py);
the number stays in the module docstring where it has context.
Collisions: test_cli_skin_integration.py existed in both tests/ and tests/cli
with different subsets — merged into one (10 tests, all kept);
run_agent/test_pre_compress_memory_context.py -> agent/..._handoff.py;
tests/test_account_usage.py -> agent/test_account_usage_fetch.py;
tests/test_web_server.py -> hermes_cli/test_web_server_ws_ping.py.
Deleted: test_minisweagent_path.py (empty since PR #2804),
test_model_picker_scroll.py (tested a private copy of the logic, imported
nothing), test_process_loop_event_loop_warning.py (asserted asyncio behaviour,
imported nothing from Hermes).
Repo-root path arithmetic (Path(__file__).parents[N], dirname chains) is
bumped for the 202 files that changed depth and verified by evaluating every
such expression against the new location. classify_changes' desktop-updater
lane prefix, tests-os.yml's ignore glob and every in-tree path comment follow
the moves. tests/test_tests_tree_layout.py keeps the tree from drifting back.
`Start-UiServer` printed the -SelfTestUi URL (and opened the browser window)
as soon as the TcpListener was bound, but the runspace that answers /progress
starts asynchronously — BeginInvoke returns before the pipeline is open and
the script block is JIT'd, which is seconds on a loaded runner. The kernel
accepted connections into the backlog during that gap and nobody answered
them. The self-test hit it three times (#90371 and two follow-ups each
widened a timeout instead of removing the race) and it just failed an
unrelated hermes_state.py PR (run 33591547099, two 5s stale-backlog
timeouts = red).
- windows.ps1: readiness handshake after BeginInvoke — one /progress
round-trip must succeed (≤15s) before the server is returned; on failure
tear the listener down and continue without UI. The URL now means
"serving", not "bound". Also fixes the browser opening to a page that never
loads on a slow machine.
- test: 1s per-attempt probe timeout so a single dead backlog socket cannot
consume half the readiness budget.
- CI: new `desktop_updater` classifier lane. tests/test_desktop_update_windows_*.py
spawn the real PowerShell script; the Windows-only job now runs them only
when scripts/desktop-update/**, the Electron updater launcher, conftest,
pyproject, or those tests change (push/dispatch fail open). A PR that
never touched that surface cannot be failed by its process timing.
Every Linux lane that does real work ran on a 4-core `ubuntu-latest`. The
Python suite and the JS checks were split into many small jobs to make that
size usable. Each split job repeated the full setup. In most of the JS jobs
the repeated setup cost more than the work.
The work lanes move to larger runners. Then the splits that existed only to
make small runners usable go away.
Python tests: 12 slices become 1 job on a 96-core runner. Slicing cost a
matrix job, a duration cache, a per-slice artifact and a merge job. 96 cores
clear the floor that the slowest single test file sets, which is about 82s. A
second slice divides work that is already at that floor, and adds a second
setup. Duration data from run 32522943054 gives the numbers behind this: 3178
files, 11645s in series.
The worker count is explicit, because `run_tests.sh` defaults to twice the
core count. A later commit sets it from a measurement on this hardware.
JS checks: 14 jobs become 1. The matrix paid about 371s of repeated setup to
spread about 612s of work. One larger runner installs one time. The three UI
shard scripts and `run-ui-shard.mjs` are therefore removed, because the
unsharded `test:ui` covers the same tests.
The unit of parallel work inside that job is a CHECK, and not a workspace.
apps/desktop is most of the payload, and its own `check` is a serial && chain.
A spread across workspaces alone therefore leaves that chain as the long pole.
A package that declares `check:*` sub-scripts gives one unit for each
sub-script. That is the same selection rule the matrix used.
The loop lives in `.github/scripts/run-workspace-checks.mjs`, so the same
sequence runs on a laptop. It runs 11 units together, buffers the output of
each one, and fails at the end with the full list. Children that share one
stdout interleave their lines and make a failure hard to read.
`npm run --ws check` stops at the first workspace that fails.
`check:test:plugins` joins the desktop `check` script. The matrix prefers
`check:*` sub-scripts over the plain `check` script, so `check:test:plugins`
ran only as its own leg. Without this change the merge drops that suite and
the job stays green.
node_modules is cached on the lockfile, and `npm ci` is skipped on an exact
hit. The `cache: npm` option of `setup-node` caches only the ~/.npm tarball
cache, which leaves the extract and the postinstalls to pay again.
The arm64 image build stays on a native arm64 runner. A build of linux/arm64
on an x64 host uses emulation.
The docker test lane caps its workers at the core count. Each of those tests
drives a container, so the docker daemon sets the limit and not the processor.
`.github/actionlint.yaml` declares the runner labels. actionlint knows the
GitHub-hosted labels only, and an undeclared label reads as an error that
hides the real findings.
The `detect` job checks out one file through a sparse checkout, and its
timeout drops to 1 minute. It reads
`scripts/ci/classify_changes.py` and nothing else.
Verification:
- actionlint reports 9 findings across all workflows. An unmodified HEAD with
the same config reports the same 9. This change adds none.
- A wrong label still fails. actionlint reports `ubuntu-latest-32-cor` and
`ubuntu-latest-32-arm-cores`.
- Every changed workflow parses, and `name` parses as a string.
- A replay of the `save-durations` merge step against a three-artifact layout
returns all 3178 entries.
- An expansion of the npm script graph gives the same leaf commands for the
parallel units and for a plain `npm run check`, in both directions. Against
the 13-leg matrix the count is 13 to 11, and the whole difference is the
three UI shards that collapse into one unsharded `check:test:ui`.
- `--list` reports the 11 units, and a full local run completes and reports
the time of each unit.
- The runner labels cannot be verified here. The first real run is the test.
`shell: bash` runs the step with -e injected, and `set -uo pipefail` does
not clear it. A non-zero pytest exit killed the script before `status=$?`,
so the -eq 5 branch and its ::error message never ran. The job still failed
red, but the diagnostic that names the cause never printed.
the markers from the previous commit skip off-host. without a host to
run them on, every marked test is a silent skip. this commit adds the
hosts.
- tests-os.yml runs -m macos_only on macos-latest and -m windows_only
on windows-latest. ci.yml requires both lanes in all-checks-pass.
- a lane fails on pytest exit code 5 (zero tests selected). a renamed
marker cannot produce a green job that ran nothing.
- each lane repeats 'not integration' because a command-line -m
replaces the addopts filter.
- scripts/ci/list_os_marked_tests.py selects which files each lane
imports. -m filters after collection, and collection imports every
module. without this helper, one unrelated ImportError on the
foreign host fails a job whose own tests passed. the helper exits
non-zero when a marker matches no file, and writes bytes with
explicit lf so windows crlf translation cannot corrupt the bash
file list. it has its own tests in tests/ci/.
- the local runner now reports the skipped count and prints a note:
macos_only/windows_only tests were skipped on this host, and this
ci lane runs them. a green local run on linux no longer reads as
coverage of the other hosts.
- the runner default job count is now #cpu, not #cpu*2.
