Closes #471

When a batch has rate-deferred tests, the deferred (exit 7) gate no longer fires before polling accepted runs, so a higher-priority auth/client error from an accepted run can surface first. Deferred-only batches still exit 7.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Enhancements

    • Batch JSON output now includes creation results and summaries alongside run results.
    • When waiting for batch runs, accepted runs are polled before reporting deferred test failures.
    • Authentication failures are reported before deferred test failures when both occur.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Command-line operations now preserve existing nonzero exit statuses when handling broken-pipe interruptions.

  • I'm entering this PR for the Season 4 CLI Improvement Bonus

Walkthrough

Batch-run JSON output now includes creation results and a summary. Wait-mode handling polls accepted runs before reporting deferred tests, while preserving authentication-error precedence. Broken-pipe handling now preserves an existing process exit code.

Changes

Batch test runs

Layer / File(s) Summary
Batch creation output
src/commands/test.ts
The batch-run JSON output includes the create response results and summary under creation, alongside run results.
Wait-mode deferred error precedence
src/commands/test.ts
When --wait is enabled and a run was accepted, the command postpones the deferred-test error until after polling and higher-priority failure handling. Deferred-only and non-wait batches retain the immediate error.

Broken-pipe exit handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Preserve the process exit code
src/lib/interrupt.ts
Broken-pipe errors and disarmed EPIPE handling use the existing process exit code when defined, instead of always using zero.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 95c3f

When a batch has deferred tests, a client-too-old or other higher-priority run error can be reported as an incomplete batch instead. Correct the exit-code precedence before merging.

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 100.00% which is sufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 1 functions across 1 files. (1 skipped: 1 too large.)

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #471 requires authentication errors to outrank deferred status and requests regressions for authentication-plus-deferred, the no-deferred control, and deferred-only incomplete behavior. src/commands/test.ts now postpones the deferred gate for accepted runs and preserves exit 7 for deferred-only batches. The whole PR diff contains no test changes, so the requested automated regressions are not added. The new post-poll gate also checks only isAuthCode; it does not allow other higher-priority client failures to reach resolveWaitFailure before exit 7.

Resolution

Add automated tests for the three cases required by #471. Ensure every higher-priority client failure handled by the wait-failure precedence reaches resolveWaitFailure before the deferred exit-7 gate.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The PR intent is deferred-batch exit precedence. The change to JSON batch output at runBatchRun adds a creation object and is unrelated to that behavior. The changes in src/lib/interrupt.ts alter broken-pipe exit-code handling and are also unrelated. These changes are outside issue #471 scope.

Resolution

Remove the creation output change and the src/lib/interrupt.ts changes from this PR, or move them to separate scoped changes.

⚠️ Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Update the broken-pipe comments for nonzero exit codes.

Both paths now preserve a defined process.exitCode, but the nearby comments still say the synthetic error stays at or exits with 0. That is incorrect when the process already has a nonzero exit code. State that 0 is only the fallback near Line 157 and Line 365.

Also applies to: 369-369

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Apply the full documented precedence before the deferred gate.

If an accepted run reports a client-too-old error (exit 14) while another test remains deferred, hasAuthFailure is false. This gate then exits 7 before resolveWaitFailure can surface exit 14. The same ordering masks other per-run errors that DOCUMENTATION.md places above timeout. Check all higher-priority failures first, then let deferred tests take precedence over lower-priority outcomes. As per path instructions: “Exit-code mapping: error paths must map to the documented exit code.”
