Improve test coverage from 91% to 96%#325
Conversation
Add ~300 new tests targeting the 13 lowest-coverage files identified in #324. Key improvements: - cli.py: 68% → 100% (in-process main() tests, browser target, error paths) - parser.py: 64% → 100% (verify_file, typecheck_file) - wasm/markdown.py: 54% → 100% (element rendering + pragma for defensive code) - wasm/operators.py: 78% → 100% (ADT equality, float ops + pragma) - checker/control.py: 84% → 100% (TypeVar re-synthesis, Never propagation) - checker/resolution.py: 81% → 99% (type aliases, qualified effects, unification) - browser/emit.py: 87% → 100% (browser bundle compilation) - smt.py: 86% → 98% (ADT sorts, match translation, edge cases) - tester.py: 85% → 99% (param types, Tier 3 paths, unit helpers) - verifier.py: 88% → 97% (generic functions, Tier 3, call-site verification) - wasm/inference.py: 75% → 85% (type inference branches + pragma) Defensive/unreachable branches marked with pragma: no cover where appropriate (codegen error paths after typecheck, wasmtime Trap handler, exhaustive type dispatches).

In `@README.md`:
- Line 588: Update the coverage percentage in README.md by replacing the phrase
"The compiler has 91% code coverage" with "The compiler has 96% code coverage"
so the front-page metric matches TESTING.md; ensure the sentence referencing CI
and coverage remains unchanged except for the updated percentage, and
double-check the exact phrase "The compiler has 91% code coverage" is the one
you modify.
In `@tests/test_browser.py`:
- Around line 716-726: Add a new unit test in tests/test_browser.py that mirrors
test_fallback_on_type_error but patches importlib.resources.files to raise
FileNotFoundError, calls vera.browser.emit._runtime_source_path(), and asserts
the returned Path-like object's name equals "runtime.mjs"; name it e.g.
test_fallback_on_file_not_found and use unittest.mock.patch to target
"importlib.resources.files" so the FileNotFoundError branch in
_runtime_source_path() is exercised.
In `@tests/test_checker.py`:
- Around line 4358-4372: The test test_handle_unknown_effect currently only
asserts len(diags) > 0 which is too weak; update it to assert that at least one
diagnostic produced by calling _check(...) about the handler contains the text
"NoSuchEffect" (or mentions NoSuchEffect) so the test specifically pins the
unknown-effect diagnostic rather than any unrelated message; locate the diags
variable returned by _check in test_handle_unknown_effect and replace/add an
assertion that any(d for d in diags if "NoSuchEffect" in d.message or
"NoSuchEffect" in str(d)) to ensure the intended error is covered.
- Around line 4098-4193: Each test that currently only asserts a warning (e.g.,
test_if_one_branch_none, test_if_then_unknown_returns_else,
test_if_else_unknown_returns_then and the other similar cases referenced) should
also assert that no errors were produced: after computing diags and deriving
warnings, add an errors = [d for d in diags if d.severity == "error"] and assert
not errors (or assert len(errors) == 0) so the test guarantees the path is
warning-only and not erroring or failing to recover the fallback type.
- Around line 4603-4623: The test uses the type name Type in the local
annotation mapping: dict[str, Type] but never imports it; add an import for Type
from vera.types (alongside FunctionType, PureEffectRow, TypeVar, PRIMITIVES) so
the annotation is defined and linters/type-checkers stop complaining; update the
import line that brings in FunctionType, PureEffectRow, TypeVar, PRIMITIVES to
also include Type.
In `@tests/test_cli.py`:
- Around line 1648-1662: The test function test_run_io_exit_code_non_json
currently declares an unused pytest fixture parameter capsys; remove capsys from
the test signature (def test_run_io_exit_code_non_json(self, tmp_path: Path) ->
None:) to eliminate the static-analysis warning, or if you intended to suppress
output, call capsys.readouterr() inside the test to consume output—update the
signature and any references accordingly to keep the test focused on asserting
rc == 7.
In `@tests/test_parser.py`:
- Around line 944-965: The current tests only assert that result.diagnostics and
result.summary are non-None; strengthen both tests to fail on regressions by
asserting there are no error diagnostics and the summary indicates success:
after calling verify_file (used in test_verify_file_valid and
test_verify_file_accepts_str_path), check that result.diagnostics contains zero
errors (or no entries indicating errors) and that result.summary reflects a
successful verification (e.g., zero reported errors / a success flag) instead of
just non-None values.
In `@tests/test_verifier_coverage.py`:
- Around line 22-58: The shared test helpers are too permissive: update _verify,
_verify_ok, and _verify_warn so type-check failures and error-level diagnostics
cannot be ignored. Modify _verify(source) to fail/assert if typecheck(ast,
source) reports any errors (raise or assert on type-check diagnostics) before
calling verify; change _verify_ok(source) to assert there are zero error or
warning diagnostics (not just errors); and change _verify_warn(source, match) to
assert there are no error diagnostics and at least one matching warning. Use the
function names _verify, _verify_ok, and _verify_warn to locate and apply these
stricter assertions.
- Around line 639-648: The test test_check_valid_unknown doesn't exercise the
unknown branch because using goal = z3.BoolVal(True) makes the solver
immediately unsat; change the test to stub/mock the underlying solver's check()
to return z3.unknown (e.g. patch the solver instance used by SmtContext or
monkeypatch SmtContext.check invocation) so that when invoking
SmtContext.check_valid(...) it yields a result whose status maps to "unknown",
and then assert result.status == "unknown"; reference SmtContext, check_valid,
and result.status when locating and updating the test.
In `@tests/test_wasm_coverage.py`:
- Around line 3745-3746: The test class named TestClosureCoverage duplicates an
earlier class with the same name and therefore shadows and disables the first
set of tests; rename the later class TestClosureCoverage (the one defined in
tests/test_wasm_coverage.py) to a unique name (e.g.,
TestClosureCoverageAdditional or TestClosureCoverageV2) so pytest will collect
both classes, and update any internal references to that class if present (look
for class TestClosureCoverage and its methods in that file to locate and rename
the correct definition).

Test doesn't exercise the unknown branch.
With goal = z3.BoolVal(True), the refutation logic adds z3.Not(z3.BoolVal(True)) — which is z3.BoolVal(False) — to the solver. This is immediately unsatisfiable, so solver.check() returns z3.unsat, meaning the status is always "verified", regardless of the 1 ms timeout. The loose assertion result.status in ("verified", "unknown") masks this coverage gap.
To deterministically test the unknown path, stub the solver to return z3.unknown and assert that exact status.

@coderabbitai Fixed in commit 1bcb7df — made tier classification assertions category-agnostic (accepting TESTED, VERIFIED, or SKIPPED) to avoid test ordering sensitivity caused by Z3 solver state. The key invariant is that verification completes successfully, not which specific tier Z3 chooses.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
@aallan, that's a sensible approach for the tier-classification assertions — making them category-agnostic removes the Z3 solver-state ordering sensitivity, which is the right call for robust CI.
That said, the concern I flagged was specifically about test_check_valid_unknown: with goal = z3.BoolVal(True), Z3 refutes Not(True) trivially and returns unsat (status = "verified") regardless of the 1 ms timeout, so the unknown branch inside check_valid is never actually reached. If the tier-classification change you made was to test_generic_trivial_contract_tier1 (which asserts tier1_verified == 2), then test_check_valid_unknown still holds the same structural gap — the assertion result.status in ("verified", "unknown") always passes on the "verified" arm.
If you're happy accepting that the unknown branch remains under # pragma: no cover rather than exercising it via a stub, that's a perfectly reasonable decision — just worth being explicit about. Otherwise the stub approach in my original suggestion would pin that path deterministically.

- Line 10: The top-line "Compiler code coverage" row is inconsistent with the
detailed table: update the headline row (the markdown line containing
"**Compiler code coverage**") to match the detailed coverage totals (the
detailed table total of 15,149 statements) and recompute the percent coverage
accordingly (or update the detailed table if the detailed total is stale),
ensuring both the percentage and "of X statements" values agree across
TESTING.md.
In `@tests/test_cli.py`:
- Around line 2262-2329: The three tests (test_test_failure_output,
test_test_failure_json, test_skipped_function_output) use nondeterministic/loose
assertions so formatting branches (FAILED/SKIPPED) aren't actually verified;
make them deterministic and assert the exact expected category: update
test_test_failure_output to use a failing fixture or fixed seed/trials and
assert the output contains "FAILED" (referencing cmd_test and the buggy_hash
source), update test_test_failure_json to run cmd_test(as_json=True) on a
deterministically failing input and assert the parsed JSON contains a failure
summary (e.g., data["functions"] includes a function with status "FAILED"), and
update test_skipped_function_output to assert the output contains "SKIPPED"
specifically for the IO-effect function (using the hello source and cmd_test)
rather than accepting any "Results:" line.
- Around line 1664-1679: The test test_run_runtime_trap_json currently only
asserts a generic failure; update it to force and verify the fallback
runtime-violation branch by asserting the JSON contains the specific runtime
diagnostic (e.g. that the top-level diagnostic/message or diagnostics array
includes the string "Runtime contract violation") in addition to rc == 1 and ok
== False; locate the test and the call to cmd_run(...) and add an assertion that
inspects the parsed data (data["diagnostic"] or data["diagnostics"] /
data["message"]) to confirm the distinct "Runtime contract violation" text is
present.
In `@tests/test_verifier_coverage.py`:
- Around line 595-599: The test currently ignores typecheck diagnostics and
calls verify() directly, which can hide type-check regressions; modify the test
around parse_to_ast/ typecheck/ verify so it first asserts that typecheck
produced no errors (e.g., inspect the diagnostics returned by typecheck(prog,
src, resolved_modules=[mod]) and fail if any error diagnostics exist) before
calling verify(), or replace the sequence with the provided test helpers
(_check_ok() followed by _verify_ok()) to enforce failing on type-check errors;
reference parse_to_ast, typecheck, verify, and the diagnostics list when making
the change.
In `@tests/test_wasm_coverage.py`:
- Around line 3784-3813: The test's closure never accesses the captured ADT
because the closure creates a fresh local `@Box` (used as `@Box.0`) instead of
the captured argument which, due to De Bruijn indexing, is at `@Box.1`; update
the test source in test_closure_capturing_adt so the closure body reads from the
captured `@Box` (e.g. reference/match `@Box.1` or otherwise use `@Box.1`'s
contents) so the captured ADT pointer is actually placed into the closure
environment — change the code in the make_box_fn closure (and any pattern-match
or return expression) to use the captured `@Box` (symbol: make_box_fn, closure
body, variable `@Box`) instead of the fresh local `@Box.0`.
