Re-Test Methodology

Re-ran the same verification surface cycle 4 used plus direct service evidence for the newly implemented F035, so each status transition has fresh, cycle-4-verify evidence. Cycle-3/cycle-4 artifacts are not reused as “fresh.”

  1. Compile sweep — typecheck, build, lint (refinement-state/functional-verify-4-artifacts/typecheck.log, build.log, lint.log). All clean, zero warnings, zero errors.
  2. Full-suite vitest run × 3 consecutive, same pool: 'threads' config (test-run-1.log, test-run-2.log, test-run-3.log). All three: Test Files 53 passed (53) / Tests 564 passed (564). Cycle 4 counts were 555 total with 1–3 shadcn-smoke flakes per run; verify 4 adds 9 new tests (7 incomingFilesService + 2 new ipcRouter wiring) and flakes are gone.
  3. Isolated rerun of the two previously flaky test files (shadcn-smoke-isolated.log → 16/16 PASS; usegitpublish-isolated.log → 2/2 PASS). Confirms the reliability fix survives both parallel-suite load and single-file runs.
  4. Direct F035 service smoke against the compiled artifact (refinement-state/test-fixtures/cycle-4-verify/incoming-files-smoke.json, generator smoke-incoming-files.mjs) exercising the happy path (3 .docx files + .meta.json + .txt + .docx stem-only rejected, alphabetical sort), the ENOENT fallback ({ names: [] }), and EACCES structured error (FILES_LIST_INCOMING_IO_ERROR).

Fixes verified working

F084 — Sidebar, Button, Dialog, And Input Accessibility/Polish (PARTIAL → PASS)

  • Fix landed: tests/renderer/shadcn-smoke.test.tsx lines 14–34 introduce openDialogReliably(user, triggerName) that retries the trigger click inside waitFor until queryByRole('dialog') resolves; all dialog tests switched from fireEvent.click to userEvent.setup({ delay: null }) + user.click; focus-trap assertion wrapped in waitFor (lines 169–176). vitest.config.ts line 31 raised the renderer project’s testTimeout to 20000ms.
  • Evidence: refinement-state/functional-verify-4-artifacts/test-run-1.log, test-run-2.log, test-run-3.log (all 564/564), shadcn-smoke-isolated.log (16/16). Cycle 4’s exact reproducer (App + Dialog smoke > opens the dialog...) no longer fails on any of the three consecutive full-suite runs.
  • Status transition: PARTIAL → PASS.

F035 — Existing Incoming Files Listing (MISSING → PASS)

  • Fix landed: new src/main/services/publish/IncomingFilesService.ts (72 lines, service with listIncomingDocx() returning FilesListIncomingResult), new src/main/ipc/handlers/incomingFilesHandlers.ts (thin delegate), wired in src/main/ipc/router.ts:346-350 and constructed in src/main/index.ts:114-118. 7 unit tests in tests/main/incomingFilesService.test.ts cover: happy-path .docx filter + alphabetical sort (case-preserving), .meta.json / stem-only .docx / non-.docx exclusion (length boundary), ENOENT → { names: [] }, EACCES → structured FILES_LIST_INCOMING_IO_ERROR + log.warn, non-Error throw path, async getIncomingDir resolver, and handler delegation. 2 new wiring tests in tests/main/ipcRouter.test.ts (total 27, up from 25) confirm the channel binds to the service when provided and falls back to NOT_IMPLEMENTED when omitted (F082 contract preserved).
  • Evidence: refinement-state/functional-verify-4-artifacts/test-run-1.log (tests/main/incomingFilesService.test.ts (7 tests), tests/main/ipcRouter.test.ts (27 tests)) and direct service smoke refinement-state/test-fixtures/cycle-4-verify/incoming-files-smoke.json showing:
    • happy → names: ["2025-10-01-Update.docx","2025-10-02-Update.DOCX","2025-10-03-Update.docx"]
    • enoent → names: []
    • eacces → { code: "FILES_LIST_INCOMING_IO_ERROR", hasMessage: true }
  • Status transition: MISSING → PASS. Code path now wired: window.api.filesListIncoming → src/preload/index.ts:153 → src/main/ipc/router.ts (FILES_LIST_INCOMING) → src/main/ipc/handlers/incomingFilesHandlers.ts → src/main/services/publish/IncomingFilesService.ts.

Collateral — useGitPublish 60s-timeout assertion flake (non-blocking → stable)

  • Fix landed: tests/renderer/useGitPublish.test.tsx:37-39 replaced the single Promise.resolve() microtask tick with vi.waitFor(() => expect(result.current.unknownAfterTimeout).toBe(true)).
  • Evidence: No occurrences of this assertion failure in any of the 3 consecutive full-suite runs (cycle 4 ran it as a run-2 flake). Isolated run also green (usegitpublish-isolated.log, 2/2). F027 Publish Timeout Unknown-State Banner remains PASS.

Not resolved

None. Every item flagged in refinement-functional-cycle-4.md is now in the expected green state.

Regressions introduced

None. All 76 previously-PASS features remain PASS. Direct regression checks against test files adjacent to the modified code:

  • Modified src/main/ipc/router.ts (+6 lines for the F035 wiring block, new import) — regression check: tests/main/ipcRouter.test.ts grew 25→27 and all 27 pass; every pre-existing channel still routes correctly including NOT_IMPLEMENTED stubs when no service is wired (F082 PASS).
  • Modified src/main/index.ts (+5 lines for incomingFilesService construction) — regression check: tests/main/createMainWindow.test.ts (11 tests) PASS, tests/main/firstRunGate.test.ts (18 tests) PASS, tests/main/configService.test.ts (3 tests) PASS. Boot sequence F005 still PASS with no new diagnostics.
  • Adjacent src/main/services/publish/ (new sibling of FileCopyService.ts, PublishHistoryService.ts) — regression check: tests/main/fileCopyService.test.ts (18 tests) PASS, tests/main/publishHistoryService.test.ts (2 tests) PASS. F028 File Copy and F066 Publish History both still PASS.
  • Modified vitest.config.ts (renderer-project testTimeout bump) — regression check: every renderer test file still completes well under the 20 s ceiling (longest observed: routeTransitionLayout.test.tsx at 561ms). No spurious timeouts, no skipped specs.
  • Modified tests/renderer/shadcn-smoke.test.tsx + tests/renderer/useGitPublish.test.tsx — regression check: isolated re-runs PASS (16/16 and 2/2 respectively); three consecutive full-suite runs PASS 564/564 with no flake on any spec.

Test-count audit:

  • Pre-fix (cycle 4): 555 tests total; best run 554/555 PASS (1 flake), worst run 552/555 (3 flakes).
  • Post-fix (verify 4): 564 tests total (+9: 7 new service + 2 new wiring). All three runs 564/564 PASS. No flakes observed anywhere in the run logs.

Remaining work (unchanged from cycles 2–4 scope)

33 MISSING features remain — all documented as explicit multi-session deliverables and never in scope for a single fix pass:

  • F008 launcher scripts (launcher.bat, launcher.vbs)
  • F009 asset directory + WMB_Logo.png / icon.ico
  • F030–F034 publish queue rows / commit-message input / YouTube UI / status log / footer destination path
  • F039 document-creator renderer section
  • F045 quick-browse renderer section
  • F050 header logo + git-status indicator widget
  • F087–F090 command palette, keyboard shortcut wiring, context menus, designed empty states
  • F093–F111 Phase 2 NHC monitor, AI backends, email review, draft queue, rich dashboard, historical views, notifications, QoL features, audit/compliance enhancements

Priority for the next implement cycle (author’s recommendation): F034 publish footer destination path (leverages F068 config:getPublic already PASS), F050 header git status indicator (leverages useGitStatus already PASS; unblocks F009 asset-dependency framing), and the publish-queue UI stack F030–F032 (leverages the now-PASS F035 files:listIncoming for collision detection against the incoming directory).

Master-List Updates Applied

  • F035 — status changed from MISSING to PASS. Evidence updated with verify-4 artifacts. Code path updated to the concrete service chain now in place. [MISSING] prefix removed from the heading since the feature is implemented.
  • F084 — status changed from PARTIAL to PASS. Evidence updated with verify-4 artifacts. Underlying cycle-3 remediation (cycle 4 paragraph) removed because the flake no longer reproduces.

Applied in a single pass with Edit; the diff is reflected in refinement-state/refinement-functional-master-list.md.

Git Safety

No git-publish E2E was exercised this verification. F029 Git Publish remains covered by static test files (publishService.test.ts 12 tests, gitService.mocks.test.ts 11 tests, publishHistoryService.test.ts 2 tests, gitGetStatusHandlers.test.ts 7 tests), all PASS across 3/3 full-suite runs. The cycle-2 disposable-branch live E2E artifact (refinement-state/test-fixtures/cycle-2/publish-e2e-result.json) remains the authoritative live evidence. No test-functional-verification branch was created; no remote refs were touched; no config target was changed.
