ScottW514 8fc07c47ee forgetest: update.job-locks and homing.cloud-offsets
update.job-locks (suite/updlock.py, its own module): with a release
published on the releases API, POST /update/download starts the
download job (202), which fetches and checks the release's archive and
applies nothing. While it runs, /status names update:download, of kind
system, as the lease's holder, and a settings write and a posted job are
each refused in its name (409). When it ends, the lease is free and the
same settings write is taken. The downloaded archive is removed when it
was not there before.

homing.cloud-offsets (suite/homeoff.py, its own module): with cloud mode
on, homing_mode = gfcloud, and the camera-home offsets at (4.5, -3.25),
$H runs the web-service homing session, and when it ends the controller
declares (4.5, -3.25) on the step grid. The work envelope reaches back
to the home on the negative axis: a jog 2 mm out and 2 mm back in Y and
then in X is accepted and ends at the home. The homing mode and the
offsets are put back as found, each retried until the daemon takes it,
since a settings write is refused for a moment after the suite's Grbl
client closes.

Proof: on the bench reference, update.job-locks PASS after
update.release-check, and homing.cloud-offsets PASS in a campaign with
forgectrl.auth, kernel.latch-locked-idle, and motion.pacing, which also
PASS. forgetest's unit tests pass (452), and the coverage lint passes
with --enforce.

forgetest - the ForgeFIRM release acceptance tool

The daemon behind http://<machine>:8090/ on the dev image: runs the acceptance catalog against the machine, keeps the append-only result log, decides which results still apply to the image that is running, exports the release artifact scripts/release.sh gates on, and serves the bench diagnostics page. The contract - catalog, campaigns, fingerprints, inheritance, the gate, the coverage rule - is the Acceptance page of the documentation site.

Run the host tests

cd forgetest
python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -v

Run the daemon on a workstation (against a mock or a manifest file)

FORGETEST_DATA=/tmp/ft FORGETEST_MANIFEST=../tree-manifest.json \
FORGECTRL_URL=http://<machine> python3 -m forgetest --port 8090

scripts/manifest-from-tree.py produces tree-manifest.json from the recipe pins; the coverage lint is python3 -m forgetest.coverage --manifest ....

Environment

Variable Default Purpose
FORGETEST_DATA /data/forgetest results.jsonl, bench.jsonl, token, export/
FORGETEST_MANIFEST /etc/forgefirm-manifest.json the image manifest
FORGETEST_PORT, FORGETEST_HOST 8090, 0.0.0.0 listener
FORGETEST_BENCH_DIR /usr/share/forgetest/bench the installed bench scripts
FORGETEST_BENCH_DATA <FORGETEST_DATA>/bench passed to bench tools: where they keep their data files (with GF_HOST=127.0.0.1 and the panel token in GF_TOKEN)
FORGETEST_MARKER /run/forgetest.active takeover marker
FORGECTRL_URL, FORGECTRL_TOKEN_FILE http://127.0.0.1, /data/forgefirm/panel.token forgectrl client (HTTP; the token authorizes writes from the board)
FORGECTRL_TLS_URL https://127.0.0.1 forgectrl over HTTPS (self-signed, unverified), for the login test
GF_SYSFS_ROOT /sys/glowforge/ kernel module sysfs
GRBL_HOST, GRBL_PORT 127.0.0.1, 23 Grbl TCP

Adding a test

Register it in the subsystem module under forgetest/suite/ with @test(...): id subsystem.name, kind, hardware, mode (the controller mode the test needs; the runner switches to it first), covers, requires, always, steps. The body gets a Context (log, check, fail, prompt, confirm, instruct, sleep, evidence, forgectrl, sysfs, grbl, takeover). Return normally for PASS, raise runner.Failed for FAIL. Then run the unit tests and the coverage lint.
