Automated Testing and Coverage

This project includes an automated pytest suite covering core services, web flows, socket handlers, and edge-case helper branches.

Prerequisites

Install dependencies in the required environment:

path/to/python-venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
path/to/python-venv/bin/pip install pytest pytest-cov

Run Tests

PYTHONPATH=src path/to/python-venv -m pytest

Generate Coverage Reports

PYTHONPATH=src path/to/python-venv -m pytest \
  --cov=src/sonobarr_app \
  --cov-report=term-missing \
  --cov-report=xml

This command writes:

• coverage.xml for SonarQube ingestion
• .coverage for local coverage tooling

CI Build Workflow

The GitHub build workflow runs the coverage command before SonarQube analysis in the same job. This keeps SonarQube metrics aligned with the latest tests without uploading build artifacts.

Coverage Target

• The active target is 100% line coverage.
• Keep branch-focused regression tests when adding new helpers or error handling paths so the target remains stable.

Notes for SonarQube

• Keep using the generated coverage.xml as the coverage report input for scanner runs.
• Re-run the coverage command after code changes to ensure SonarQube receives current metrics.
