Phase 3.2: Integration Testing — Labeling Workflows

[ashleyshaw]

Description

Comprehensive integration testing to verify new labeling workflow functions correctly and existing label behavior is preserved.

Test Scenarios

PR Branch-Based Labeling Test

• Create test PR from feat/new-widget → verify type:feature label applied
• Create test PR from fix/bug-fix → verify type:bug label applied
• Create test PR from docs/readme → verify type:documentation label applied
• Create test PR from refactor/cleanup → verify type:refactor label applied

Dependabot Security Labeling Test

• Verify Dependabot PR → automatically labeled type:security, deps:automatic
• Check that standard labeling still applies if Dependabot PR matches pattern
• Verify Dependabot-specific logic doesn't interfere with other jobs

Issue Type Labeling Test

• Create test issue with title containing "bug:" → verify type:bug label applied
• Create test issue with title containing "feature:" → verify type:feature label applied
• Create test issue with priority mention → verify priority:* label applied

Label Cleanup on Close Test

• Create issue, apply status:in-progress label
• Close the issue → verify status:in-progress label removed
• Create PR, apply status:needs-review label
• Close PR → verify status:needs-review label removed

Regression Tests

• All existing label rules still work
• Label names unchanged
• Trigger behavior consistent
• Performance comparable to originals (<20% regression)

Definition of Ready (DoR)

• labeling-governance.yml created and reviewed
• Test scenarios identified
• Sample test branches prepared

Definition of Done (DoD)

• All test scenarios executed
• All labeling working correctly
• No regressions detected
• Performance within acceptable range
• Test results documented
• Any issues reported as follow-up tasks
• Code review approved
• Ready for production deployment
