fix(test): classify warm-soak failures instead of counting them (#8286) - #8300
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe warm-soak verifier now classifies failed passes from host-log evidence. It reports client timeouts with copying-minor counts, while residual and unclassified failures remain failing conditions. ChangesWarm-soak classification
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This change makes warm-soak verdicts depend on classifying host and verifier evidence, but the current logic can miss a documented residual signature or allow a real host failure to pass as a timeout. That can weaken the test gate and mislead diagnosis, so the PR is not merge-ready until the classifier is tightened. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

Classify Next E180 as residual evidence.
The current expression does not match E180. A failed pass that emits only the Next E180 host-log signature enters other_passes and is reported as unclassified instead of #8163 residual. Add the exact E180 text used by the host-log tests. This conflicts with the PR objective that Next E180 signatures fail as #8163 residuals.

Restrict timeout classification to known, clean timeout evidence.
UND_ERR_[A-Z_]+ also matches non-timeout Undici errors. This branch also does not verify that the host-log evidence is clean. A real host failure combined with a transport error can be reported as #8213 and allow the arm to pass instead of failing as unclassified. Whitelist the exact timeout signatures emitted by verify.mjs and reject the timeout classification when unrelated host errors are present. This follows the PR objectives to avoid broad grep patterns and to fail on unrecognized evidence.

Report the actual residual evidence.
The failure text always says that residual passes had an empty body, although the residual branch also covers host TypeError and should cover Next E180. The global type_errors count can also produce 0 pass(es) with a residual failure. Track the evidence reason per pass, or use neutral wording such as “residual evidence” and list the affected passes. This follows the PR objective to name affected passes.

Update the warm-soak failure message in the residual evidence branch to avoid
claiming every residual pass has an empty body; use neutral residual-evidence
wording and list the affected pass identifiers, while retaining the host
TypeError count and supporting Next E180 evidence.
run_warm_soak treated any non-zero verify.mjs exit as an #8163 residual. In the saturated regime it exists to reach, client timeouts happen on their own — the close-condition run saw 12, all inside collection storms (one pass ran 644 copying minors against a steady 84), with zero residual discriminators across 10,995 collections. So the arm manufactured false residual reports precisely where it is most likely to be run, against a closed issue. It now reads the evidence already in the host log: empty body (plus host TypeError / E180) fails as the residual; a timeout with a clean host log is reported with the pass's collection count and attributed to #8213; anything unrecognised fails without assuming a cause. Per-pass collection counts are printed for the offending passes, since a total hides a 7.7x single-pass storm. Sabotage-tested in both directions: a planted empty-body signature still fails the arm and names the pass; a planted timeout with real traffic and real collections does not, and prints the #8213 note. The liveness assert (zero copying minors = "exercised nothing") is unchanged and still fires ahead of a clean verdict.

Merging. Shell-only ( The reasoning in that comment is the valuable part, and it is the right instinct stated better than I would have:
Both directions matter. A gate that can't fail is the usual worry, but a gate that fails for the wrong reason burns the same credibility — and it does it faster, because people start ignoring it. Distinguishing the residual (empty body, That the timeout arises on its own in the saturated regime this arm exists to reach — #8213's pass with 644 copying minors against a steady 84, and 8 of 21 concurrent requests timing out — means counting exit codes would manufacture false residual reports precisely where the arm gets used. Slicing only the lines a given pass appended, rather than re-reading the shared host log, is the right mechanism for that. One fix pushed: the changelog fragment was named |

Closes #8286. My bug, in the arm I added in #8215.
What was wrong
run_warm_soaktreated any non-zeroverify.mjsexit as a failure and printed#8163 residual. It counted exits; it never classified them. Two very different things produce that exit:Unexpected end of JSON inputin the verifier, plusTypeError: value is not a functionand Next'sE180 failed to pipe responsein the host log.UND_ERR_HEADERS_TIMEOUT. The server was merely slow; its log is clean and its answer, when it arrives, is correct.The second happens on its own in the saturated regime this arm exists to reach. In the #8163 close-condition run: 12 passes lost requests to client timeouts, all inside collection storms — one pass ran 644 copying minors against a steady 84 — while the three residual discriminators were 0 across 10,995 collections. The arm would have reported
#8163 residualfor a run with no residual evidence at all, against an issue that is closed, so the next reader would reasonably conclude it had regressed.Worth stating in one line, because it is the general lesson and not a Perry-specific one: this arm was written so a green run could not imply more than it proved, and its first real failure was the mirror image — a red verdict that was not true. I only designed against one direction. A gate that cannot be trusted when it goes red is as useless as one that cannot go red at all.
The fix
Classify from the evidence already in the host log — the arm was collecting it and throwing it away. Per failing pass, the slice of log that pass appended is examined:
TypeError/E180#8163 residual, naming the passesUND_ERR_*/HeadersTimeoutError/BodyTimeoutError, clean host logA timeout does not fail the arm deliberately: it is a real user-visible failure (#8213) but it is not this arm's subject, and failing on latency would make the arm unusable in the exact regime it was built to reach. It is reported loudly rather than swallowed, with the offending pass's collection count next to it — because that is the interesting quantity, and a run total hides a 7.7× single-pass storm entirely.
Note the precedence: a residual co-occurring with a timeout reads as residual. The bug must never be masked by the noise.
Sabotage-tested in both directions
Not "it compiles" — each verdict was planted and observed:
residual=1 timeout=0→ FAIL, names pass 2residual=0 timeout=1→ exit 0 + the #8213 notePlus a 10-case classifier test covering every branch, the precedence case above, and the real bytes from passes 203 and 238 of the close-condition run — so the classifier is checked against the actual failure it mis-read, not only against synthetic strings.
The first version of the timeout sabotage was itself wrong and worth mentioning: a stub verifier that printed a failure without making any HTTP requests produced zero collections, so the liveness assert fired instead and the test proved nothing. Fixed by having the sabotage drive the real verifier first and then inject — a harness that does not exercise the subject cannot test it, which is the same lesson this PR is about.
