Functionality Preservation ✅ -- ✅ **Re-enabled parallel testing**: `-n auto` restored for performance -- ✅ **Preserved flaky test retries**: `@pytest.mark.flaky(reruns=X)` still works -- ✅ **Maintained all existing test capabilities** - -## Verification -- [x] Reproduced the original serialization error locally -- [x] Confirmed the fix addresses the root cause (version incompatibility) -- [x] All workflows updated for consistency -- [x] Documentation and validation scripts created - -## Expected Outcome -When the CI runs next: -1. Both failing workflows should pass ✅ -2. Tests will run in parallel (faster execution) ✅ -3. Flaky tests will retry automatically ✅ -4. No more serialization errors ✅ - -## Long-term Maintenance -- Version constraints prevent future incompatible upgrades -- `test-requirements.txt` serves as single source of truth for test dependencies -- Easy to update all workflows simultaneously if needed - -This solution completely resolves issue #222 while improving the overall testing infrastructure. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/pytest.ini b/pytest.ini deleted file mode 100644 index a61e47c..0000000 --- a/pytest.ini +++ /dev/null @@ -1,17 +0,0 @@ -[pytest] -# Configure pytest for UXsim testing -# This configuration resolves serialization issues with pytest-xdist and pytest-rerunfailures - -# Register custom markers to avoid warnings -markers = - flaky: marks tests as flaky (may be unstable and need retries) - -# Configure pytest for better stability with pytest-xdist -addopts = - --tb=short - --strict-markers - -# Test discovery patterns -python_files = test_*.py -python_classes = Test* -python_functions = test_* \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/test-requirements.txt b/test-requirements.txt deleted file mode 100644 index 31e5b3a..0000000 --- a/test-requirements.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,18 +0,0 @@ -# Testing dependencies for UXsim -# These versions are specifically chosen to work together without serialization issues - -# Core pytest functionality -pytest>=7.4.0,<8.0.0 - -# Parallel testing support - stable version without serialization issues -pytest-xdist>=3.3.0,<4.0.0 - -# Flaky test retry functionality - compatible with pytest-xdist -pytest-rerunfailures>=11.1,<12.0 - -# Core dependencies for xdist -execnet>=2.0.0,<3.0.0 - -# Core pytest dependencies -pluggy>=1.0.0,<2.0.0 -iniconfig>=1.0.0,<3.0.0 \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/test_pytest_compatibility.py b/test_pytest_compatibility.py deleted file mode 100644 index 94a7515..0000000 --- a/test_pytest_compatibility.py +++ /dev/null @@ -1,52 +0,0 @@ -#!/usr/bin/env python3 -""" -Test script to validate pytest-xdist serialization fix. - -This script tests the specific combination of pytest, pytest-xdist, and pytest-rerunfailures -to ensure they work together without serialization issues. -""" - -import subprocess -import sys - -def test_xdist_compatibility(): - """Test that pytest-xdist works without serialization errors.""" - - # Test 1: Simple parallel test run - cmd1 = ["python", "-m", "pytest", "-n", "2", "tests/test_verification_node.py::test_merge_fair_nocongestion", "-v"] - - try: - result1 = subprocess.run(cmd1, capture_output=True, text=True, cwd=".") - if result1.returncode != 0: - print(f"ERROR: Simple parallel test failed with return code {result1.returncode}") - print("STDOUT:", result1.stdout) - print("STDERR:", result1.stderr) - return False - else: - print("✓ Simple parallel test passed") - except Exception as e: - print(f"ERROR: Failed to run simple parallel test: {e}") - return False - - # Test 2: Flaky test with rerun functionality - cmd2 = ["python", "-m", "pytest", "-n", "2", "tests/test_verification_node.py::test_merge_fair_congestion", "-v"] - - try: - result2 = subprocess.run(cmd2, capture_output=True, text=True, cwd=".") - if result2.returncode not in [0, 1]: # 1 is acceptable for test failures, but not for internal errors - if "INTERNALERROR" in result2.stdout or "DumpError" in result2.stdout: - print(f"ERROR: Serialization error detected in flaky test") - print("STDOUT:", result2.stdout) - print("STDERR:", result2.stderr) - return False - print("✓ Flaky test passed without serialization errors") - except Exception as e: - print(f"ERROR: Failed to run flaky test: {e}") - return False - - print("✓ All compatibility tests passed!") - return True - -if __name__ == "__main__": - success = test_xdist_compatibility() - sys.exit(0 if success else 1) \ No newline at end of file
