# Furious test suite

The suite uses Python's built-in `unittest` runner. In the main test process,
Qt tests use one deliberately small `QApplication` and route `QSettings` to a
unique temporary directory. Focused lifecycle, public-import, and display-scale
regressions may start a hermetic child Python process, and external-runtime tests use that child interpreter as
a harmless stand-in for a core. Tests do not initialize Furious's singleton IPC
server, production repositories, system proxy, TUN, routing, update network
clients, or real proxy cores.

| Batched real/probe Qt object, handle, Python allocation, and RSS trends | `test_qt_stress.py` |
| Repeated harmless subprocess, pipe, thread, handle, and RSS trends | `test_process_stress.py` |
| Opt-in release-confidence counts (100 app children, 100 external cores, 100k metrics, 40k logs, 20k navigation, 5k plugins, 1k dialogs) | `test_very_heavy.py` |

The lifecycle tests classify `AppQTransientDialog`, protocol/plugin editors,
routing dialogs, subscription editors, message boxes, QR windows, and TUN
settings dialogs as transient. `TextEditorWindow` is intentionally reusable: it
must survive normal close/show cycles without multiplying actions, and is then
explicitly destroyed by its owner. Main pages/controllers are application
lifetime objects and are tested through isolated service/UI boundaries rather
than by starting the production application runtime.

## Commands

Run commands from the repository root with the project and its runtime
dependencies installed in the active environment. If the root contains a
`.venv*` or `venv*` environment, activate it first; the examples intentionally
use its `python` command rather than a machine-specific interpreter path.

Select the offscreen Qt platform **before Python starts**. Some test modules
import Qt-backed Furious modules before `tests.support` can apply its defensive
default, so setting it only after test discovery begins is too late.

Windows PowerShell:

```powershell
$env:QT_QPA_PLATFORM = 'offscreen'
```

Windows Command Prompt:

```cmd
set QT_QPA_PLATFORM=offscreen
```

Linux, macOS, and other Unix-compatible shells:

```sh
export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=offscreen
```

Then run the desired test tier.

python -m unittest discover -s tests -v
```

To run one module, class, or method while developing, pass its dotted test name
to the same runner, for example:

```text
python -m unittest tests.test_endpoint_info -v
python -m unittest tests.test_endpoint_info.EndpointInfoServiceTest -v
```

No external network access or separately installed Xray/Hysteria executable is
required. Process-boundary tests create only temporary scripts and launch the
active Python interpreter. Two regressions cover Windows-specific behavior and
are skipped on other platforms; native handle/RSS trend checks use the safe
platform counters available on the current host.

Several negative-path tests intentionally emit warning or error log messages.
The opt-in release-confidence tier uses high operation counts but samples native
resources only at batch boundaries, so its assertions remain ownership-oriented.
Neither stress tier is enabled by a normal focused module run. Treat the runner's
final status and exit code as authoritative; expected diagnostic output still ends in
`OK`.

## Packaged-build smoke procedure

Packaged/Nuitka behavior is outside the source-level `unittest` fixtures. For an
optional release smoke check, use an otherwise disposable test OS account or
VM, redirect all Furious application-data/settings locations to a temporary
directory, and keep system proxy and TUN disabled. Open and close each transient
editor family 50 times, verify one reusable `TextEditorWindow` does not
duplicate actions, and compare live-object diagnostics from an instrumented
build before/after the loop. Do not run this procedure against a production
profile or rely on process-name cleanup; close only the exact packaged process
started for the smoke test.

## Isolation rules

- Tests clean up only exact subprocess handles/PIDs and threads they create.
- Child-process lifecycle tests disable single-instance discovery and host
  integration before running a real Qt event loop.
- Tests never search for, signal, or terminate another Furious/core process.
- Persistence tests use temporary INI-backed `QSettings` namespaces.
- Controller tests inject fake runtime managers and patch host-mutation APIs.
- Qt tests use normal close/deferred-delete paths and collect Python cycles only
  at diagnostic batch boundaries, never once per UI operation.
- A lifetime failure must be investigated as an ownership defect; increasing
  thresholds or forcing production garbage collection is not an acceptable fix.
