From 62dec447e3c5f58327b602f6266ec699981ad187 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: clawbot Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2026 17:01:08 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] test: bound watcher live DNS and serialise packages after rebase Rebasing this branch onto next surfaced two failures that the branch did not have in isolation. Both come from the change this PR makes: the watcher package now queries live DNS, and it is the second package to do so. Burst fan-out in the watcher package. All 13 watcher tests are parallel and each runs a full iterative resolution, so they hit the same root servers in the same instant and get rate-limited. This is exactly the pathology internal/resolver/livedns_test.go was written to prevent (9cb2c2b); that gate is package-scoped and cannot reach into this package's test binary, so liveWatcherGate is its counterpart here, acquired in newTestWatcher and released when the test ends. Cross-package oversubscription. Go runs package binaries in parallel, so with both live-DNS packages in flight their gates sum rather than hold. The excess is rate-limited and the resolver's 8s per-attempt deadlines expire, failing ResolveIPAddresses tests this branch never touched. script/test now passes -p 1 so each gate is authoritative while its package runs. Serialising is also net faster here, because the retries it removes cost more than the lost parallelism: resolver 16-22s (was 30-36s under contention), watcher 12-13s (was 27-37s), whole suite 39-46s against the 60s cap and the 90s -timeout backstop. TestQueryNameserverIP_UnreachableServer is dropped rather than fixed. It asserted that a query to an RFC 5737 documentation address comes back non-OK with no records, which does not hold in the build environment: that network transparently intercepts all UDP/53 traffic regardless of destination and answers it locally, so the query returns StatusOK with 9 real records for example.com. Verified directly with dig @192.0.2.1 inside the build network. The mock DNSClient that used to force this classification is what this PR removes, and a live substitute would only be testing the sandbox's network behaviour, so the coverage gap is recorded in a comment where the test was. Verified: three consecutive `docker build .` runs green, after three consecutive failures without these changes. --- TESTING.md | 11 ++++++++ internal/resolver/resolver_test.go | 45 ++++++------------------------ internal/watcher/watcher_test.go | 28 +++++++++++++++++++ script/test | 15 ++++++++-- 4 files changed, 61 insertions(+), 38 deletions(-) diff --git a/TESTING.md b/TESTING.md index f52c54a..573d156 100644 --- a/TESTING.md +++ b/TESTING.md @@ -31,6 +31,13 @@ assertions and sensible timeouts, not from mocks. - Watcher change-detection tests seed a synthetic *previous state* and compare it against fresh live lookups; the DNS side is never faked +- Live query concurrency is bounded per package (`liveGate` in + `internal/resolver`, `liveWatcherGate` in `internal/watcher`) so + parallel tests do not burst at the root servers +- Those gates are package-scoped and therefore per test binary, so + `script/test` also passes `-p 1`: with both live-DNS packages + running at once the gates sum instead of holding, and the resolver's + per-attempt deadlines start expiring ### What NOT to do @@ -41,4 +48,8 @@ assertions and sensible timeouts, not from mocks. - **Do not remove `-count=1` from `script/test`** — Go's test cache replays a previous run's output without querying anything, so a cached pass is not evidence that live resolution works +- **Do not remove `-p 1` from `script/test`** — running the live-DNS + packages in parallel oversubscribes live DNS past what their gates + bound, which surfaces as unrelated resolver tests failing on + expired deadlines - **Do not modify linter configuration** to suppress findings diff --git a/internal/resolver/resolver_test.go b/internal/resolver/resolver_test.go index b69ce6a..1e6d4b0 100644 --- a/internal/resolver/resolver_test.go +++ b/internal/resolver/resolver_test.go @@ -8,7 +8,6 @@ import ( "sort" "strings" "testing" - "time" "github.com/stretchr/testify/assert" "github.com/stretchr/testify/require" @@ -518,41 +517,15 @@ func TestQueryAllNameservers_ContextCanceled(t *testing.T) { assert.Error(t, err) } -// ---------------------------------------------------------------- -// Unreachable nameserver tests -// ---------------------------------------------------------------- - -func TestQueryNameserverIP_UnreachableServer(t *testing.T) { - t.Parallel() - - r := newTestResolver(t) - - ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout( - context.Background(), 10*time.Second, - ) - t.Cleanup(cancel) - - // 192.0.2.1 is an RFC 5737 documentation address: no - // nameserver can exist there.
