Proposed changes

  1. Updated the mock service.go files chaos-experiments and chaos-experiment-runs
  2. Fixed failing test in chaos-hub; i.e. TestGetClonePath , TestListPredefinedWorkflowDetails and TestGetChartsData
  3. Updated .gitignore to include the tmp folder. (The tmp folder is required to pass certain test cases.). Then after adding the tmp folder, re-added the tmp folder to .gitignore
  4. Added dummy YAML files.

Types of changes

What types of changes does your code introduce to Litmus? Put an x in the boxes that apply

  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Bugfix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected)
  • Documentation Update (if none of the other choices applies)

Checklist

Put an x in the boxes that apply. You can also fill these out after creating the PR. If you're unsure about any of them, don't hesitate to ask. We're here to help! This is simply a reminder of what we are going to look for before merging your code.

  • I have read the CONTRIBUTING doc
  • I have signed the commit for DCO to be passed.
  • Lint and unit tests pass locally with my changes
  • I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works (if appropriate)
  • I have added necessary documentation (if appropriate)

Dependency

nil

Special notes for your reviewer:

  • This PR refers to the failing tests in Add actions for chaoscenter unit tests #4244 and this comment by @Jonsy13
  • Commenting tmp folder from the .gitignore might not be the best solution because whenever the test is run locally, the chart repo will be cloned. I had commented the tmp folder because at least one tmp folder needs to be present in choashub folder to pass the tests.
  • Changing tmp to .\tmp was required, as code was unable to find the \tmp path/directory

There is a strange thing about the 2 failing test-cases of UpdateChaosExperiment and DisableCronExperiment.
When all the testcases of the package are run at once, these testcases fail, but when they are run individually, they pass. I'm adding screenshot showing that these tcs pass when run individually :)

Hi @namkyu1999
The 2 tests failing are

  • UpdateExp
  • DisableCronExp

But strangely, they are passing in my local dev environment. I have attached its screenshot above.

I'm currently trying to debug the reason for same.

Finally, all the test-cases passing!

Yep, that's true. The issue was causing the chaos-hub tests to fail because the generated UUID was unique every time, resulting in the file being absent and triggering an error, indicating 'file not found'

We can kindoff refine the names and stuff, but we will require a defined file system to pass the tests.
Same reason as above.

This test case should be failed. we need to keep wantErr: true. IMO we need to change our test code.

Yep that's true.

Actually the test code returns an error as when it is run individually (which is the expected result).

But when run collectively, for some weird reason, the update experiment service returns null error which fails the tc because returned error is null but it expects an error.

Since it is a unit test, it is correct that the test should pass when run individually.

The reason this happens is that in the case of chaos hub, we have code to download a file or check for the existence of a file, but other test code has already downloaded the file.

If you can't fix it now, I suggest commenting it out.

Yep. The same reason as above, as there is some issue in the ProcessExperimentUpdate service IG.

Currently, I am unable to solve it. Where should we update the current code?

Thank you!

Tried to fix in my PR #4372, reason why tests were passing when ran individually but failing when ran all together is because of the global mocks. Some tests are setting expectations but those expectations weren't met. If we had AssertExpectations it would have highlighted the problem. As a best practice we should avoid having global mocks to avoid cases where one test leaves side-effects causing other tests to fail.

Another way to debug issues why mocks aren't working as expected is by inspecting ExpectedCalls on the mock object. You can either print the ExpectedCalls before every test is run or set breakpoints using runtime.Breakpoint() and debug using dlv https://github.com/go-delve/delve

Indeed. The issue stemmed from the tmp/ directory going unnoticed; the code couldn't locate it.

While one solution could be adding a tmp directory in the root, it seemed irrelevant for the rest of the code.

Consequently, I opted to update it to ./tmp, making it relative to the chaos-hub directory.

Would love to discuss on this as I am not sure how apt the solution is.

I wouldn't recommend changing production code that's currently working well just to make our test code pass. We don't inspect the potential side effects that could occur on that code.

So should we close this PR and then, I'll comment out the failing test in a new PR?

You can complete this in the current PR. I will create a new pull request to address the failing test cases(commented test cases).
