test: restore transport-failure coverage with loopback nameservers
check / check (push) Failing after 13s
The DNS-mock removal deleted TestQueryNameserverIP_Timeout and left a comment in its place, so the resolver's StatusTimeout / StatusError classification branch went untested. The stated obstacle was that a query to a black-holed RFC 5737 address comes back StatusOK, because the build environment transparently intercepts UDP/53 and answers it locally. That is a property of that environment, not of the resolver, and it only rules out choosing a remote address. internal/resolver/transport_test.go binds real nameservers on 127.0.0.1 instead and aims the query at them: one silent on A queries and answering every other type (StatusTimeout), one answering SERVFAIL (StatusError), and one address with nothing listening, which is refused rather than dropped and so classifies as NoData. This is not a mock — no DNSClient is substituted. The resolver dials a real socket, writes a real query with the real miekg/dns client, and applies its real deadline and real classification logic to what comes back. Substituting the client is what TESTING.md bans; choosing the server is not, and the resolver is aimed at a caller-chosen nameserver in production too. queryDNS now dials a nameserver address that already carries a port as written, defaulting to 53 only for a bare address. That is what makes a nameserver on any other port reachable, on loopback or otherwise. Silence on one record type rather than all eight keeps the timeout test to two query timeouts (4s) instead of sixteen (32s), and it is asserted: the test fails if it ever costs more than 8s. The watcher's assertStatePopulated and TestDomainPortAndTLSChecks asserted only that hostname, port and certificate state were non-empty, plus non-zero checker call counts. Neither was vacuous, but neither would have caught the watcher resolving the wrong addresses. The port and TLS test doubles now record their arguments, and both tests assert that the state keys and the arguments the checkers were actually called with match the addresses live DNS returned — exactly those, no more and no fewer. Verified by mutation: making the watcher drop all but one resolved address fails both tests, and it passed both of them before. TESTING.md records why a loopback nameserver is not a mock, so the new tests are not mistaken for a violation of the rule they respect. |

test: bound watcher live DNS and serialise packages after rebase
check / check (push) Successful in 1m37s
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 (

Remove DNS mocking from tests; use live DNS everywhere
DNS is never mocked in this repository: tests exercise live DNS, and robustness comes from handling real-world DNS behavior with tolerant assertions and sensible timeouts, not from mocks. watcher: drop mockResolver and wire the real iterative resolver into the tests, querying stable public names (example.com, www.example.com). Change detection is exercised by seeding the state store with a synthetic previous observation that live DNS cannot match (reserved .invalid nameserver names and RFC 5737 documentation addresses); DNS stays live in every run. The port checker, TLS checker, and notifier remain test doubles since they are not DNS, keeping notification and state assertions deterministic against whatever addresses live DNS returns. resolver: drop the timeoutClient fake DNSClient and the NewFromLoggerWithClient mock constructor. The timeout test is replaced by a live query against an RFC 5737 documentation address where no nameserver can exist, asserting a classified non-OK response with no records. TESTING.md: extend the live-DNS policy to every package and remove the carve-out that permitted DNS mocks in packages that consume the resolver. TODO.md: update stale references to hermetic mocked-DNS work to reflect the no-mocking policy and the current state of feature/resolver. Intentionally dropped coverage: the exact StatusTimeout classification (previously forced by the fake client) is no longer asserted, because a genuinely unreachable server may fail fast instead of timing out depending on the network path; the live test tolerantly accepts any failure classification. |

test: disable Go's test cache so every run queries live DNS (closes #139)
check / check (push) Successful in 1m34s
`script/test` did not pass `-count=1`, so on an unchanged tree Go served the whole suite from its test cache: exit 0 in ~0.2s with every package marked `(cached)` and not one DNS query made. This repo's suite exists to exercise live resolution on every run (`TESTING.md`), so that green asserted nothing — and it is exactly the green used as evidence that a flakiness fix works, since "run it a few times" stops being runs after the first. `-count=1` now disables caching on every invocation. The conditional verbose rerun that `REPO_POLICIES.md` mandates was missing at the same spot and is added here rather than left broken: the primary run had been unconditionally `-v`, which is the failure mode the policy exists to prevent (unreadable CI and `docker build` logs on success). Tests now run quiet, and only a failure triggers the `-v` rerun. The rerun carries `-count=1` too, so it cannot replay a cached copy of the failure it is meant to diagnose, and its exit status is discarded in favour of a forced 1: the first failure already proved the suite broken, so a flake that passes the second time must not turn the build green. `-timeout 90s` is untouched. It is a deliberate backstop that must strictly exceed the 60s hard cap on suite duration. No special-casing for the Docker build, which also reaches this script via `RUN make test`: a fresh container's test cache is empty, so `-count=1` changes nothing there and carving out an exception would only create a second code path that could drift. Verified: three back-to-back `make test` runs on an unchanged tree, zero `(cached)` markers, ~4.0-4.5s wall each (was ~0.2s cached), comfortably inside the 20s target with `-race` and `-cover` both still working and coverage percentages unchanged. The rerun-and-still-fail path was exercised against a purpose-built flaky test that fails once then passes: quiet failure, verbose rerun that genuinely re-executed, exit 1 regardless. `make check` green. |

test: make live DNS tests robust instead of gated (closes #93)
check / check (push) Successful in 1m18s
The resolver's live-DNS tests failed nondeterministically, a different subset each run. Three structural causes, all test-side: - Burst fan-out. Every test in the package is parallel and the build hosts have many cores, so all ~35 iterative resolutions started at the same instant and, because queryServers walks rootServerList() in fixed order, hit the same root server within milliseconds. Root servers rate-limit that. - No retry anywhere. One dropped UDP packet in a delegation chain failed a test outright. - Unanimity assertions. TestQueryAllNameservers_AllReturnOK and _NXDomainFromAllNS required every one of a domain's nameservers to answer, with no tolerance for one being slow. New internal/resolver/livedns_test.go addresses each: a package-wide gate bounds how many live resolutions are in flight at once, every live operation gets three attempts with exponential backoff and its own deadline, and multi-nameserver assertions now need a strict majority rather than unanimity. The retry predicate is deliberately transport-level -- "did a nameserver answer at all" -- never the assertion under test, so a resolver that answers incorrectly still fails on the first attempt. A nameserver that stays silent is tolerated; one that answers wrongly is not. livedns_harness_test.go tests that machinery directly: quorum arithmetic, status counting, the gate's concurrency bound, per-attempt deadlines, and recovery from a transient failure. It touches no DNS. Nothing is mocked, faked, stubbed, recorded, skipped or build-tagged, and production resolver behaviour is unchanged. Test caps move to the new org-wide values ruled at prompts issue 41: 60s hard cap, 20s target, 90s -timeout backstop. REPO_POLICIES.md is re-vendored byte-identical from sneak/prompts rather than hand-edited, which also picks up the golangci-lint paragraph this copy had drifted behind on. TESTING.md's stale 30-second target follows to 60. #93 |

doc: add testing policy — real DNS only, no mocks
Check / check (pull_request) Failing after 5m24s
Documents the project testing philosophy: all resolver tests must use live DNS queries. Mocking the DNS client layer is not permitted. Includes rationale and anti-patterns to avoid. |
