Closes #760

First step of the coverage-discoverability effort (#760 -> #761 retrofit -> #762 CLI): enforce the test_plan_schema.md docstring format so all test plans share one machine-parseable structure.

What

One AST pre-commit hook, check-test-plan-docstring-schema (scripts/hooks/check_test_plan_docstring_schema.py): every Test* class pytest would collect in tests/**/test_*.py — declaring or inheriting (same-module) a test_ method — must have a class docstring following the schema:

  • one-sentence scenario summary before the first section (not a heading-like line)
  • Purpose/Regression:, Prerequisites:, Test plan:, Expected result: sections present, in schema order, with non-empty content (standalone headings do not count)
  • Test plan steps numbered N. text, consecutively from 1, at one indentation level; wrapped continuations indented deeper; unnumbered standalone actions, malformed markers (2.Do), and empty markers are violations
  • a docless class fails fast with a dedicated error

No baseline — by decision

There is no suppression list and no grandfathering: --all-files must mean all files in the current state. The v1 of this PR shipped two hooks plus a 52-entry shrink-only baseline; that design was rejected because masking legacy violations made prek --all-files pass falsely. The hooks were merged into one and the baseline deleted (design documented in #760). Consequence, accepted: on a tree without #761 the check fails honestly with every non-conforming class; with #761 merged it passes genuinely. The pre-existing baselines of older hooks are a separate decision, untouched.

Live verification

  • Fail cases, each with its specific message: docless class, missing section, wrong order, heading-as-summary, heading-only section, empty section, unnumbered action, malformed 2.Do marker, empty 1. marker, non-consecutive steps, step at wrong indentation
  • Pass cases: conforming plans, wrapped continuations, deeper-indented nested numbering (continuation, not a step)
  • Collected-class discovery: module-level classes only (pytest collects no nested classes); a nested same-named class cannot shadow a module-level one; cyclic same-module base references terminate
  • Full-tree runs: pre-retrofit tree fails with every non-conforming class (no suppression); tree with Add product test plans (schema docstrings) to all existing test classes #761 merged passes with zero findings
  • Full pre-commit (mypy, ruff, flake8) exits 0

Also documents the enforcement and the step/continuation format in test_plan_schema.md (structure is hook-enforced; content quality stays human-review scope).

…hooks

Closes #760

Two AST hooks following the existing scripts/hooks pattern:
- check-test-plan-docstring-presence: every Test* class with test methods
  in tests/**/test_*.py must have a class docstring
- check-test-plan-docstring-schema: every Test* class with a docstring must
  follow test_plan_schema.md (summary line; Purpose/Regression,
  Prerequisites, Test plan, Expected result sections in order and
  non-empty; consecutively numbered plan steps)

The presence->schema handoff closes the ratchet leak: a baselined docless
class cannot gain a non-conforming plan, because any new or edited
docstring is fingerprint-checked against the schema with no baseline
protection. Legacy non-conforming plans (52 classes) are grandfathered in
scripts/hooks/baselines/check_test_plan_docstring_schema.txt (shrink-only;
issue #761 retrofits them).

Live-verified: per-rule fail cases, skip cases (docless classes, non-test
classes), conforming pass case, fingerprint sensitivity on a baselined
docstring, and full-tree suppression with the baseline.

Walkthrough

Adds a pre-commit checker that scans test classes and reports missing or non-conforming test-plan docstrings. The checker uses shared AST helpers, and the schema documentation now describes the enforced requirements.

The new docstring hook may accept malformed or empty numbered test steps, and it can crash on a pathological class that subclasses itself. Neither affects production behavior; both are small fixes that can follow the merge.

The reviewed changes support [#760]. They add shared AST discovery, test-plan docstring validation, and pre-commit integration. These changes are related implementation work. No unrelated product behavior is shown.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

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 13 functions across 3 files. (2 skipped: 2 unsupported.)

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

HIGH — [#760] is not satisfied. scripts/hooks/check_test_plan_docstring_presence.py and the required presence baseline are absent from scripts/hooks/. The schema hook reports docless classes instead of skipping them, so the required presence-to-schema handoff is not implemented. The hook also states that it has no baseline, while [#760] requires an independent shrink-only schema baseline. Its order check remains ineffective: present is built in _SECTION_NAMES order, so positions is always sorted and reordered sections are not detected. The reviewed files also show no presence hook or schema baseline wiring. Add the separate presence hook and baseline, skip docless classes in the schema hook, add the independent schema baseline, wire both hooks and document them, then test reordered sections and baseline ratcheting.

Resolution

HIGH — Implement the two separate hooks required by [#760]. In the schema validator, derive section order from source order, for example source_order = [name for name, _ in sorted(header_positions.items(), key=lambda item: item[1])], then compare it with _SECTION_NAMES when all sections are present. Add regression coverage for missing docstrings, reordered sections, baseline suppression, and docstring edits.

High-Level Assessment

The following are alternative approaches to this PR:

1. Single validator with rule-specific baselines
  • ➕ Parses each test module once and registers one hook.
  • ➖ Must explicitly separate presence and schema suppression to prevent a grandfathered missing-docstring finding from concealing a newly added invalid plan.

Recommendation: Keep the separate hooks: their independent suppression rules make the handoff from missing to present-but-invalid docstrings straightforward. A combined validator would save parsing but need additional rule-specific baseline logic to preserve that guarantee.

Action required

1. Docless test classes evade enforcement ✗ Dismissed
Description
check-test-plan-docstring-schema.py reports missing docstrings itself, but no separate presence
hook is registered or present in scripts/hooks/. Because the schema hook is the only configured
check, docless classes are not owned by a presence rule and cannot follow the required
presence-to-schema handoff.
Code

.pre-commit-config.yaml[R120-125]

+      - id: check-test-plan-docstring-schema
+        name: test classes must have a schema-conforming test plan docstring

+        language: python
+        files: ^tests/
+        types: [python]
Relevance

●●● Strong

Hook ownership contradicts the stated presence-to-schema handoff and permits docless classes to
evade enforcement.

2. Legacy plans make pre-commit fail ✗ Dismissed
Description
_check_file reports every missing or nonconforming class plan without loading or applying a schema
baseline. When the enabled hook runs across test files, checked-in legacy docstrings such as
TestOvaColdMigration are reported, so all-files checks and unrelated edits to affected modules
reach those findings.
Code

Enabling an unsuppressed repository-wide check would expose legacy violations, contradicting the
stated baseline-ratchet design.

Evidence
The hook is enabled for test files, and its checker explicitly has no baseline or suppression and

## Issue description

## Recommended Fix
Inventory existing violations, add their fingerprints to `scripts/hooks/baselines/check_test_plan_docstring_schema.txt`, and load and apply that shrink-only baseline using the shared baseline utilities. Suppress only matching legacy findings so newly introduced violations and edited grandfathered docstrings are reported.

3. Inherited tests bypass plan checks ✓ Resolved
Description
iter_test_classes() requires a Test* class to declare a test_ method directly, so it excludes
classes whose test methods are inherited. Pytest collects the copy-offload snapshot subclasses
through methods inherited from CopyoffloadSnapshotBase, but both plan hooks skip their missing or
malformed plans, including an existing short, nonconforming docstring.
Code

scripts/hooks/_ast_utils.py[R369-372]

+        has_test_method = any(
+            isinstance(stmt, (ast.FunctionDef, ast.AsyncFunctionDef)) and stmt.name.startswith("test_")

+        )
Relevance

●●● Strong

Inherited pytest tests are excluded from both hooks, directly undermining the stated enforcement
scope.

PR-#611

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The shared selector searches only a class’s own body for test_ methods, and both the presence and
schema hooks use it. CopyoffloadSnapshotBase declares a test method that its Test* snapshot
subclasses inherit without declaring test methods themselves; one such subclass has a short,
nonconforming docstring, yet the selector excludes it from both checks.

## Recommended Fix

Remediation recommended

4. Collected tests can lose plan checks ✓ Resolved
Description
iter_test_classes keys every class found by ast.walk solely by name, so a nested class can
replace a same-named module-level test class in the map. If a test module defines both, the checker
examines the nested class instead and can accept a missing plan on the class pytest collects.
Code

scripts/hooks/_ast_utils.py[R400-401]

+    classes = {node.name: node for node in ast.walk(tree) if isinstance(node, ast.ClassDef)}

●●● Strong

Name-keyed AST collection can replace collected classes; recent hook reviews accepted comparable
missed-case fixes.

PR-#611

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The dictionary retains only the last AST class node for each name, and the checker examines only
yielded nodes. A nested TestExample under a helper class can therefore replace an earlier
module-level TestExample before the checker reaches it; no such collision is present in the
current test tree.

5. Empty plan steps pass validation ✓ Resolved

6. Unnumbered test actions pass the hook ✓ Resolved
Description
_validate_docstring extracts only lines that begin with a numbered step and checks the sequence of
that subset. A plan containing an unnumbered action or check alongside steps 1 and 2 passes,
although the documented structure requires actions and checks to be numbered in execution order.
Code

scripts/hooks/check_test_plan_docstring_schema.py[R96-100]

+        steps = [int(match.group(1)) for match in (_NUMBERED_STEP_RE.match(line) for line in lines[start:end]) if match]
+        if not steps:
+            problems.append("section 'Test plan' has no numbered steps")
+        elif steps != list(range(1, len(steps) + 1)):
+            problems.append("section 'Test plan' steps are not consecutively numbered from 1")

Filtering unnumbered lines allows malformed test-plan actions despite the documented numbering
requirement.

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The documented Test plan calls for numbered actions and checks. The validator filters out every line
not matching the numbered-step expression, so those lines cannot affect its consecutive-number
check.

7. The two hooks can drift apart ⊘ Outdated
Description
Both new run_check functions repeat the same baseline loading, path iteration, parsing, and
per-file dispatch logic instead of using a shared runner. Any future change to hook traversal or
error handling must be applied in both files, so the presence and schema checks can silently develop
different behavior.
Code

scripts/hooks/check_test_plan_docstring_schema.py[R147-155]

+    baseline = load_baseline_for_check("check_test_plan_docstring_schema", collector.report)

+
+    for path in iter_test_module_files(paths):
+        tree = parse_file(path, collector)
+        if tree is None:
+            continue

●●● Strong

Identical hook orchestration is duplicated and conflicts with the repository's explicit
shared-helper rule.

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The same non-trivial orchestration block appears in both newly added hooks: each loads a baseline,
returns when unavailable, iterates test modules, parses each file, skips parse failures, and calls
_check_file. This is duplicated logic without a shared helper, matching the checklist's
requirement to extract repeated blocks of three or more statements.

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The two test-plan hooks duplicate the same `run_check` orchestration logic for loading baselines, iterating files, parsing ASTs, and invoking file checks. This creates two maintenance paths that can drift apart.

## Recommended Fix
Extract the common baseline loading, test-module iteration, parsing, and callback dispatch into a shared helper with parameters for the hook baseline name and file-check callback. Update both `run_check` functions to delegate to that helper while preserving their separate baseline files and rule-specific checks.

8. An empty result section can pass ✓ Resolved
Description
_validate_docstring counts any nonblank line after Expected result: as section content,
including an otherwise unrecognized header such as Notes:. If that header is the only line after
Expected result:, the hook accepts a plan with no result text for the later catalog to extract.
Code

●●● Strong

Unknown headings incorrectly count as section content, allowing an empty expected-result section.

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
Only the four recognized headers create section boundaries. The content check then treats every
nonblank line in the final section's range as content, so an unknown heading by itself satisfies it.

9. A heading can replace the plan summary ✓ Resolved
Description
_validate_docstring rejects a first-line summary only when that line is one of the four recognized
section headers. A docstring beginning Summary: followed immediately by the four populated
sections passes even though it has no one-sentence scenario summary.
Code

scripts/hooks/check_test_plan_docstring_schema.py[R83-87]

10. Out-of-order plans pass the new check ✗ Dismissed
Description
_validate_docstring builds present from the canonical _SECTION_NAMES tuple rather than the
headers’ source positions, so its position comparison cannot detect reordered sections. A docstring
placing Expected result: before Prerequisites: or Test plan: can therefore pass the schema
hook and reach the repository with its sections out of order.
Code

scripts/hooks/check_test_plan_docstring_schema.py[R78-81]

+    present = [name for name in _SECTION_NAMES if name in header_positions]
+    positions = [header_positions[name] for name in present]
+    if positions != sorted(positions):
+        problems.append("sections out of schema order (expected: " + ", ".join(_SECTION_NAMES) + ")")
Relevance

●●● Strong

The comparison uses canonical order, making the out-of-order check logically ineffective.

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The documentation says the hook enforces section order, and the validator records each header’s
source position. But it derives present and the positions it compares from canonical
_SECTION_NAMES order, so positions != sorted(positions) cannot detect headers that appear out of
order in the docstring.

Merge the presence and schema hooks into one: every test class must
have a schema-conforming plan docstring, and a class without a
docstring fails fast with a clear error. Drop the suppression
baseline entirely — --all-files must reflect the current state of the
tree, never a grandfathered list. Also fix test-class discovery:
iter_test_classes now resolves test methods inherited from
same-module base classes, so concrete subclasses of shared bases
(e.g. CopyoffloadSnapshotBase) are checked too.

* docs: add schema-conforming product test plans to all test classes

Closes #761

Rewrite/extend 56 class docstrings (52 linter-required + 4
CopyoffloadSnapshotBase subclasses that inherit their test methods)
to the full test_plan_schema.md format: one-sentence summary,
Purpose/Regression, Prerequisites, numbered Test plan, Expected
result.

Plans are customer-readable (repeatable without reading Python or
repo configuration; repository VM names appear as examples only) and
verified accurate against each class's methods, parametrization in
tests/tests_config/config.py, and the utilities called. Accuracy
corrections: dropped the MTV-5622 note from the warm RDM virtual-disk
class (the test expects success) and dropped the Hyper-V SMB
max-channels claim from TestColdMigrationComprehensive (not asserted
by this test).

Docstring-only change: AST-equivalence modulo docstrings verified on
all files; no code, config, or import changes.

When the enforcing hooks (PR #763) merge, the schema baseline is
deleted in the same integration - all plans conform, nothing is
grandfathered.

Addressed: Addressed in ab83cbf: _NUMBERED_STEP_RE now requires non-whitespace text after the marker (^(\s*)(\d+)\.\s+(\S.*)$), so a bare 1. with no action does not count as a step and is reported as "not a numbered step or a continuation" at the step level.

Addressed: Addressed in ab83cbf: iter_test_classes builds its class map from module-level tree.body definitions only — pytest collects no nested classes, and a nested same-named class can no longer replace a module-level entry in the name map, so no collected class loses its plan check. Verified live with a module-level TestShadow plus a nested same-named class: the module-level class is still yielded and checked.

Verified live: "1. do / standalone action / 2. check" now fails; wrapped continuations still pass.

The following review comments were reviewed and a decision was made:

.pre-commit-config.yaml:120 (qodo requirement gap) — Docless test classes evade enforcement

Skipped: Skipped: the issue specification was updated to document this design decision in #760 — the presence and schema hooks were deliberately merged into one hook and the separate presence hook deleted. One rule ("every test class must have a schema-conforming plan docstring") gets one hook; the split was an artifact of the rejected baseline design, and a docless class fails fast in the merged hook with a dedicated error. The PR description was rewritten to match.

scripts/hooks/check_test_plan_docstring_schema.py:103 (qodo requirement gap) — Legacy plans make pre-commit fail

Skipped: Skipped: the issue specification was updated to document this design decision in #760 — baselines and suppression lists are rejected for this hook by explicit decision: --all-files must mean all files in the current state, with zero grandfathering. The v1 baseline masked legacy violations and made prek --all-files pass falsely, so it was deleted. On a tree lacking the retrofit the hook fails honestly with every non-conforming class; with #761 merged it passes genuinely (verified: zero findings on the combined tree). The pre-existing baselines of older hooks are a separate decision, untouched.

scripts/hooks/check_test_plan_docstring_schema.py:78 (qodo rule violation) — Out-of-order plans pass the new check

Skipped: False positive with proof: running the hook's _validate_docstring on a docstring placing Expected result before Purpose/Regression returns "sections out of schema order (expected: Purpose/Regression, Prerequisites, Test plan, Expected result)". The canonical-order position comparison is ascending exactly when source order matches schema order, so reordered sections are always flagged by this hook. The issue specification was updated to record this verified behavior in #760 (Done checklist: "fails on ... reordered sections").
