Phase 2 Complete: Detection Tests Created

Summary

Issue #478: Status command not detecting BMAD installations in subdirectories or with legacy folder names.

Phase 2 Objectives: Create comprehensive test suites to reproduce the bug and validate the fix.

Status: COMPLETE

    • Scenario coverage
    • Quality metrics
    • Execution instructions

Test Coverage

Current Behavior (Expected to PASS ✓)

  • Getting status from project root
  • Status with explicit path
  • Detecting when installation exists at exact location

Bug Reproduction (Expected to FAIL )

  • Finding BMAD 1-3 levels up in directory tree
  • Detecting legacy .bmad-core folder
  • Detecting legacy .bmad-method folder
  • Searching parents for legacy installations
  • Relative path traversal (using "..")

Edge Cases (Expected to PASS ✓)

  • Non-existent directories
  • Permission denied scenarios
  • Symlinked installations
  • Very deep nesting

Key Metrics

Metric Value
Total Test Cases ~49
Unit Tests ~30
Integration Tests ~19
Expected Pass (Before Fix) 26-28 (53-57%)
Expected Fail (Before Fix) 20-22 (43-47%)
Expected Pass (After Fix) 49 (100%)
Test Fixtures 4 projects

Test Design Highlights

1. Clear Bug Demonstration

Each failing test includes comments:

// ❌ FAILS - BUG #478
expect(status.installed).toBe(true);

2. Realistic Scenarios

  • Developers working in subdirectories
  • Running npx bmad-method status from nested paths
  • Legacy project migrations

3. Comprehensive Coverage

  • Basic functionality
  • Bug reproduction
  • Edge cases
  • Error handling
  • Output validation

4. Jest Best Practices

  • Proper setup/teardown with beforeEach/afterEach
  • Isolated tests (no cross-contamination)
  • Real filesystem (not mocks)
  • Clear test descriptions

What's Next: Phase 3

Phase 3: Implement the Fix

What needs to be implemented:

  1. Add findInstallation(searchPath) method to Installer class
  2. Modify getStatus(directory) to search directory tree
  3. Support legacy folder names
  4. Handle upward traversal correctly

Expected changes:

  • tools/cli/installers/lib/core/installer.js (~50-80 lines added/modified)

Success criteria:

  • All 49 tests pass ✓
  • No regressions ✓
  • Legacy support works ✓
  • Linting passes ✓

How to Run Tests

# Run both test suites
npm test -- test-unit-find-installation.test.js test-integration-status-command-detection.test.js

# Run with verbose output
npm test -- --verbose test-unit-find-installation.test.js

# Run with coverage
npm test -- --coverage test-integration-status-command-detection.test.js

Confidence Level

Current Phase (Phase 2): 95% Complete

  • Unit test suite created and comprehensive
  • Integration test suite created with realistic scenarios
  • Test fixtures initialized with proper structure
  • Expected failures documented
  • All delivery artifacts created

Ready for Phase 3: YES
