Fix Test
Systematically debug and fix failing test(s).
Workflow
1. Identify Failures
./bashunit tests/ 2>&1
Parse: which files, which functions, error messages.
2. Categorize Each Failure
- Test bug — test itself is wrong (wrong expected value, bad setup)
- Implementation bug — code doesn't match expected behavior
- Environment issue — missing dependency, wrong fixture path
- Race condition — passes sequential, fails parallel
- Flaky test — network/time/random dependency
3. Fix
- Test bug: correct assertion or setup
- Implementation bug: minimal fix in
src/, follow TDD - Environment: fix
set_up/ fixtures - Race condition: use
$temp_dirfor isolation,waitfor async - Flaky: mock external dependencies
4. Verify
./bashunit path/to/fixed_test.sh # Specific test
./bashunit tests/ # Full suite
./bashunit --parallel tests/ # Isolation check
5. Prevent Regression
Document root cause. Consider adding edge case tests to prevent recurrence.
Debugging Tips
- Use
--filter "test_name"to run single test - Add
echo "DEBUG: $var" >&2temporarily - Check fixtures exist:
ls tests/fixtures/ - Verify mocks:
assert_have_been_called mock_name
