Command definition

test.md

cli-anything:test Command

Run tests for a CLI harness and update TEST.md with results.

CRITICAL: Read HARNESS.md First

**Before running tests, read `./HARNESS.md`.** It defines the test standards, expected structure, and what constitutes a passing test suite.

Usage

/cli-anything:test <software-path-or-repo>

Arguments

  • `<software-path-or-repo>` - **Required.** Either:
  • A **local path** to the software source code (e.g., `/home/user/gimp`, `./blender`)
  • A **GitHub repository URL** (e.g., `https://github.com/GNOME/gimp`, `github.com/blender/blender`)

If a GitHub URL is provided, the agent clones the repo locally first, then works on the local copy.

The software name is derived from the directory name. The agent locates the CLI harness at `/root/cli-anything/<software-name>/agent-harness/`.

What This Command Does

1. **Locates the CLI** - Finds the CLI harness based on the software path 2. **Runs pytest** - Executes tests with `-v -s --tb=short` 3. **Captures output** - Saves full test results 4. **Verifies subprocess backend** - Confirms `[_resolve_cli] Using installed command:` appears in output 5. **Updates TEST.md** - Appends results to the Test Results section 6. **Reports status** - Shows pass/fail summary

Test Output Format

The command appends to TEST.md:

## Test Results

Last run: 2024-03-05 14:30:00

[full pytest -v --tb=no output]


**Summary**: 103 passed in 3.05s

Example

# Run all tests for GIMP CLI
/cli-anything:test /home/user/gimp

# Run tests for Blender from GitHub
/cli-anything:test https://github.com/blender/blender

Success Criteria

  • All tests pass (100% pass rate)
  • TEST.md is updated with full results
  • No test failures or errors
  • `[_resolve_cli]` output confirms installed command path

Failure Handling

If tests fail: 1. Shows which tests failed 2. Does NOT update TEST.md (keeps previous passing results) 3. Suggests fixes based on error messages 4. Offers to re-run after fixes
