The cloud job tests (lid-abort, lid-during-button-wait, hunt-lid-open,
pause-resume) run in cloud mode and leave the machine there: enter_cloud
reuses a live session (pid-scoped from the client's own websocket state
lines) and switches once from GRBL mode, declaring the change to the
baseline; nothing switches back. Each test judges the log from its own
window, the print by its own "print [id]: finished" line, and waits the
service's follow-up moves out (wait_quiet) before it ends. hunt-lid-open
restarts the cloud client through the supervisor's stop/start lever for
a fresh connect. The former switch-back is what failed the last bench run
of hunt-lid-open (409 machine is not idle: the service was still
re-finding the head after the lid closed).
The baseline is mode-aware: in cloud mode the client owns the GRBL
controller's init values, the lid lamp, and the position counters; the
mode itself is preserved unless the run declared the change
(Context.mode_changed); controller_mode is never handed back as a bare
setting (a bare write left the persisted mode out of step with the live
one). The undeclared-change restore now uses the captured state, which
the post pass never saw before.
The acceptance page gets an "Ignore prerequisites" switch (remembered by
the browser): POST /start {ignore_requires} starts a test whose requires
are unmet, and the run records the unmet prerequisites in its evidence
and log; they stay required for the release. The cloud tests' requires
no longer chain through cloud.mode-switch.
Proof: tests/test_cloud_suite.py replays the four tests on the bench's
own gfcloud excerpts (fixtures/) and the run loop's emitted pause/resume
lines under the real runner Context against a fake forgectrl; baseline
mode tests and the server override test; the whole suite (98) and the
coverage lint pass. Catalog consequence: cloud.* fingerprints move with
the module; the catalog hash moves with the requires.
A stdlib-only daemon on the dev image (HTTP :8090) that runs the acceptance
catalog against the machine from a self-contained page, keeps the append-only
result log under /data/forgetest, and exports the release artifact the gate
reads. Tests declare kind (auto / operator / live), hardware (api / takeover),
coverage globs, prerequisites, and core membership; a test's domain
fingerprint is the hash of the manifest files its globs select plus the
platform and its own implementation, so a PASS stays valid exactly while
nothing it covers changed. Campaign rules: a FAIL ends the campaign, the core
(image health, kernel latch and drills, one live emission witness) is never
inherited, invalidate-all forces a full campaign, no SKIP. Live tests need the
operator acknowledgment and the physical arm press through the controller;
takeover tests stop forgectrl for the duration with a crash-recoverable
marker; the tool never touches the laser latch.
Catalog v1: 24 tests ported from the proven bench drills with their recorded
pass criteria (image, kernel K1-K3 and fire A/B/U, forgectrl API and logs,
motion incl. dead-man, cooling, live laser, camera, update, cloud). The bench
tab lists every scripts/bench tool and runs the board-side ones as
subprocesses (takeover tools wrapped). 44 host unit tests, including the gate
verification fixtures. Installed only by forgefirm-image-dev, with the bench
scripts under /usr/share/forgetest/bench.
