Test restoration to the original input-row order.

These fixtures sort rows by group and rolling index. This does not exercise the required backward remap after grouped rolling evaluation. Use interleaved groups while keeping each group's index ordered, such as A0, B0, A1, B2, A3, B3. Keep check_row_order=True for both execution paths.

Consider caching the resolved rolling index name.

_rolling_orderby_name runs at Line 785 and again at Line 1488 for the same named_exprs. You can store the name on RollingWindowOp at dispatch time and read it here. This removes the duplicate validation pass and keeps one source of truth for the index column.

Walkthrough

The change adds grouped range-based rolling aggregates in cuDF-Polars. It adds ordered input gathering, shared unary-operation execution, dependency handling, aggregation decomposition, and expression and streaming test coverage.

Changes

Grouped rolling support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Ordered rolling execution
python/cudf_polars/cudf_polars/dsl/expressions/rolling.py
Rolling requests resolve source columns and support optional row-order gathering. Cumulative sum, shift, fixed-size rolling, and range rolling use shared ordering logic.
Grouped range rolling
python/cudf_polars/cudf_polars/dsl/expressions/rolling.py
Grouped RollingWindow expressions validate one index column, evaluate compatible range windows, cast results, and restore input order.
Dependency and aggregation integration
python/cudf_polars/cudf_polars/dsl/translate.py, python/cudf_polars/cudf_polars/dsl/utils/aggregations.py
Grouped-window dependency collection and aggregation decomposition include range-rolling values, order-by columns, and related window expressions. Unsupported order_by combinations and nested rolling expressions raise NotImplementedError.
Grouped rolling validation
python/cudf_polars/tests/expressions/test_rolling.py, python/cudf_polars/tests/streaming/test_rolling.py
Tests cover grouped time-based rolling aggregates, integer-index windows, common aggregations, row-order preservation, null and empty inputs, and unsupported expressions.

233-250: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add coverage for the new branches.

These two tests cover the happy path only. The new grouped range-rolling code adds branches that no test exercises:

  • The null-index RuntimeError in the RollingWindowOp handler.
  • The NotImplementedError from _rolling_orderby_name when two rolling expressions use different index columns.
  • The INT64 cast for a non-Int64 integral index. The ts column here is Int64, so the cast is skipped.

Add cases with a nullable index column, with two different index columns in one select, and with an Int32/UInt32 index.

Extract the repeated skip condition.

The same skipif condition and reason appear twice. python/cudf_polars/tests/expressions/test_rolling.py already uses a named marker constant for the identical condition. Define one constant in this module and reuse it.

328-332: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

New grouped rolling tests do not detect CPU fallback. Both tests collect with the GPU engine and compare against literal expected frames. A fallback to CPU yields identical values, so the new grouped range-rolling code path can be skipped or regress without a test failure.

  • python/cudf_polars/tests/expressions/test_rolling.py#L328-L332: replace the literal comparison with assert_gpu_result_equal(q), or collect with an engine configured with raise_on_fallback=True.
  • python/cudf_polars/tests/expressions/test_rolling.py#L447-L455: apply the same guard while keeping the explicit schema expectations, because they document the required count and len dtypes.

As per coding guidelines, python/**/cudf_polars/**/*.py requires coverage of Polars expression types without silent fallback to CPU.
