The new spinner implementation using idiomatic Bubble Tea patterns lacked comprehensive test coverage, particularly for the Update() method (33% coverage) and concurrent operations.

Changes

Test Coverage (pkg/console/spinner_v2_test.go, 869 lines, 28 functions)

Bubble Tea Model Tests

  • Direct testing of Init(), Update(), View() methods
  • Message handling: updateMessageMsg, tea.KeyMsg, spinner.TickMsg
  • Unknown message type handling
  • Update chaining across multiple messages

Environment & Accessibility

  • TTY detection scenarios (terminal vs pipe)
  • ACCESSIBLE environment variable handling (values: 1, true, yes)
  • IsEnabled() consistency across environment states

Concurrency & State Management

  • Concurrent start/stop calls
  • Concurrent message updates
  • State transitions: not running → running → not running
  • Idempotent operations (double start, multiple stops)

Edge Cases

  • Stop before start
  • Update before start
  • Rapid operation cycles
  • Complete lifecycle testing

Coverage Improvements

Update()          33.3% → 100.0%  (+66.7%)
Init()            100.0% (stable)
View()            100.0% (stable)
IsEnabled()       100.0% (stable)

Functions with TTY-dependent paths (Start, Stop, StopWithMessage) remain at 40% as enabled paths require actual terminal environments.

Race Condition Testing

All tests pass with go test -race - no data races detected in concurrent operations.

Original prompt

This section details on the original issue you should resolve

<issue_title>[plan] Add comprehensive tests for new spinner implementation</issue_title>
<issue_description>## Objective

Add comprehensive unit and integration tests for the new idiomatic spinner implementation to ensure correctness and prevent regressions.

Context

The new spinner implementation needs thorough testing to validate:

  • Bubble Tea model behavior (if using tea.Model)
  • TTY detection logic
  • Accessibility fallback
  • Start/stop semantics
  • Message updates

Approach

  1. Create test file: pkg/console/spinner_v2_test.go
  2. Test Bubble Tea model methods (Init/Update/View) if applicable
  3. Test TTY detection scenarios
  4. Test accessibility mode
  5. Test concurrent start/stop calls
  6. Test message updates during animation

Files to Create

  • pkg/console/spinner_v2_test.go

Test Scenarios

Unit Tests

  • Test spinner initialization
  • Test message updates
  • Test View() output format
  • Test Update() with Tick messages (if using tea.Model)
  • Test stop during animation

Integration Tests

  • Test TTY detection (terminal vs pipe)
  • Test accessibility mode (ACCESSIBLE=1)
  • Test start -> message update -> stop flow
  • Test multiple start/stop cycles

Edge Cases

  • Test stop before start
  • Test double start
  • Test rapid start/stop cycles

Acceptance Criteria

- Test Bubble Tea model methods (Init/Update/View)
- Test TTY detection scenarios
- Test accessibility mode fallback
- Test concurrent start/stop operations
- Test message updates during animation
- Test edge cases (stop before start, double start, rapid cycles)
- All tests pass with go test -race (no race conditions)
- Improved coverage: Update from 33% to 100%, all model methods at 100%
