test: prune redundant tests and run shell suites in parallel - #1571
Conversation
No test reads event1-premature.jsonl or normal-completion.jsonl; the completion-signal-gate tests build their events inline. Refs #1570
These suites asserted that SKILL.md, ETHOS.md and reference sentences exist. They executed no code and nothing at runtime reads the pinned text. test_wrapper_stdout_contract.sh keeps the wrapper-template shape assertions the PTY test does not reach and drops only the rationale prose. Rejected: keep the suites as doc-drift alarms | no consumer reads the text, and each rewording cost a fixture edit Refs #1570
AC16 grepped each strike skill for the text strike-counter.sh, which
still passes when the script moves. It now resolves the
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/... path from the skill body and requires an
executable file there.
Refs #1570
Each removed case ran the same entrypoint on the same input class and asserted the same outcome as a surviving case: the pipefail arm-unset param, the safe_tokenize heredoc param and the shell mirrors whose token streams the Python suite pins, two oversized-line tests that the fstat early-out rejects before the per-read cap they name, the no-session prune_stale test, and front-load's marker assertion. Refs #1570
… tree test_check_fire_ledger_arm, test_check_mktemp_guard and test_skill_surface_freeze rewrite a tracked file, run check-plugin-manifests.py and restore on EXIT, but never took _tree_mutation_lock.sh. Run beside another suite, mktemp_guard's baseline check saw a sibling's mutation and failed (expected=0 got=1). Confidence: high Not-tested: flock path on Linux (macOS has no flock; CI exercises it) Refs #1570
run-tests.sh step 2 ran ~158 shell suites one after another, ~14m of an ~18m CI job. Suites now run PRAXIS_TEST_JOBS at a time (default: core count) through xargs -P, and each one's output is replayed and folded in file order. Suites that source _tree_mutation_lock.sh still run alone after the batch. PRAXIS_TEST_PART=python|shell selects half the steps so CI can run them as separate jobs. Rejected: wait -n job pool | macOS ships bash 3.2 Confidence: medium Not-tested: CI runner timing until the PR run Refs #1570
The test job now runs as a matrix over PRAXIS_TEST_PART, so the shell suites run beside pytest and the static checks instead of after them. The coverage summary step runs on the python leg only. Refs #1570

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe CI test job now runs separate Python and shell matrix legs. The test runner supports configurable shell-suite parallelism and runs suites that use the tree-mutation lock serially. The changes also remove selected fixtures and tests, revise retained test assertions, and update contributor documentation. ChangesTest execution and suite coverage

- Around line 278-281: Update the script-reference extraction in the AC16 check
so the matched `strike-counter.sh` path must end at a valid path boundary,
rather than matching prefixes such as `.sh.bak`; then check executability of
that complete referenced path.

- Timing is two PR runs against one
mainrun (37579021776); runner variance is not measured. flockserialization of the 15 lock-taking suites was only exercised on Linux CI; macOS has noflock, so locally they rely on running after the parallel batch.
Carried: none — neither gap names a follow-up action.
Evidence 1 — CI run 37598172578 on `0ff2fb2c`, both legs pass
Both matrix legs passed on the PR head.
$ gh run watch 37598172578 --repo devseunggwan/praxis --exit-status --interval 30 >/dev/null 2>&1; echo "run rc=$?"; gh run view 37598172578 --repo devseunggwan/praxis --json jobs -q '.jobs[]|select(.name|startswith("test"))|"\(.name)\t\(.conclusion)\t\(.startedAt)\t\(.completedAt)"'

test (python) success 2026-10-07T09:05:23Z 2026-10-07T09:09:12Z
Evidence 2 — shell leg log
The shell leg ran step 2 only and ended green, AC16 included.
$ gh run view 37598172578 --repo devseunggwan/praxis --log --job 112715775854 | grep -E 'ALL TESTS|TEST SUITE|AC16'
✓ AC16 skill files exist + reference strike-counter.sh
ALL TESTS PASSED
Evidence 3 — python leg log
pytest and the coverage report ran on the python leg, and the run passed under PRAXIS_TESTS_STRICT=1.
$ gh run view 37598172578 --repo devseunggwan/praxis --log --job 112715776031 | grep -E 'passed in|TOTAL|ALL TESTS'
2523 passed in 154.99s (0:02:34)

ALL TESTS PASSED
Evidence 4 — timing vs main
main run 37579021776 ran one test job: 17m45s, of which step 2 (shell, serial) took 13m58s (=== shell tests === 06:01:51 → === manifest check === 06:15:49). On this PR the legs run side by side, so wall time is the slower (shell) leg: 6m41s on this run (−62%), 6m23s on run 37596949904 (−64%). The shell leg's run-tests.sh step took 6m13s / 5m48s (−55% / −58% vs 13m58s).

Evidence 5 — parallel fold test, with a mutation control
tests/test_run_tests_subskip.sh passes on the shipped runner. With run_sh_parallel()'s rc read replaced by rc=0, the parallel case fails, so the case detects a dropped failure.
$ bash tests/test_run_tests_subskip.sh
PASS parallel run folds skips and failures
PASS parallel output is replayed in file order
Passed: 9 Failed: 0
$ bash $T/tests/test_run_tests_subskip.sh # runner copy with rc=0
FAIL parallel run folds skips and failures: SKIPPED_TOOLS=(faketool) SHELL_FAILED=0
Evidence 6 — AC16 against a dangling reference
Pointing skills/strikes/SKILL.md at strike-counter.sh.bak makes AC16 fail; restored, the suite passes.
$ sed -i '' 's#hooks/strike-counter.sh"#hooks/strike-counter.sh.bak"#' skills/strikes/SKILL.md && bash tests/hooks/completion-verify/test_strike_counter.sh | grep -E 'AC16|Passed'

AC16 matched up to the first 'strike-counter.sh', so a reference to strike-counter.sh.bak resolved to the existing script and passed. It now takes the whole quoted path. Refs #1570

Summary
Closes #1570
Removes tests that guard no behavior: two orphan fixtures, six phrase-pinning suites, and duplicate cases. Tightens one check that could pass on a broken path. Also cuts suite wall time: shell suites now run in parallel, and CI runs the shell and python halves as separate jobs.
