Walkthrough

The pull request updates the testing requirements for Hypothesis and hypothesis-jsonschema. It also changes an attachment deletion test to assert that the deletion mock receives the attachment’s location.

Changes: Testing updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Update schema test dependency
requirements-testing.txt
The requirements now allow Hypothesis versions from 6.170.10 up to, but not including, 7, and pin hypothesis-jsonschema to 0.23.2.
Assert attachment file deletion
specifyweb/backend/businessrules/tests/test_attachment_rules.py
The test renames the deletion mock to delete_attachment_file and asserts that it is called with attachment.attachmentlocation. The assertion that the attachment record no longer exists remains.

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review 36a6a

The test environment may install an inconsistent dependency set, and the deletion test can pass while deleting the wrong file path. Both should be corrected before merging.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "Tests: Fix failing backend tests" is a short, single-line title that names the main change. The PR updates the testing requirements (Hypothesis and hypothesis-jsonschema pins) and adjusts an attachment deletion test so the backend test suite passes again. The title matches the stated objective of PR #8729 to fix issue #8706. It is slightly broad because it does not name the specific failure (the Hypothesis 'many' object AttributeError in test_column_options_parse), but it refers to a real and central aspect of the change. It is not vague in the sense of 'misc updates' because it states the area (Tests) and the action (fix failing backend tests).

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #8706 identifies the Hypothesis failure in OtherSchemaTests.test_column_options_parse. The PR updates requirements-testing.txt from the incompatible hypothesis==6.155.7 and hypothesis-jsonschema==0.19.0 pair to hypothesis>=6.170.10,<7 and hypothesis-jsonschema==0.23.2. The failing test remains present and uses from_schema as required. This directly addresses the reported private-API incompatibility. No other coding requirement is stated in issue #8706.

Full details: Automatic Tests

Explanation

The PR includes automatic test coverage. It updates test_delete_last_dataset_reference_deletes_attachment in specifyweb/backend/businessrules/tests/test_attachment_rules.py and asserts both the file-deletion call and database deletion. The PR changes no production implementation, so no additional automatic test is required.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The change in specifyweb/backend/businessrules/tests/test_attachment_rules.py reformats a patch argument and adds an assertion for delete_attachment_file. Issue #8706 concerns the Hypothesis failure in test_column_options_parse. The attachment test change has no demonstrated connection to that failure or to the dependency update.

Resolution

Remove the attachment-test change, or link it to a coding requirement that covers attachment deletion behavior.

Full details: Testing Instructions

Explanation

The testing instructions are not clear or complete. The PR description contains only an unanswered HTML prompt and gives no test steps. The diff updates Hypothesis dependencies used by OtherSchemaTests.test_column_options_parse and changes TestAttachmentRules.test_delete_last_dataset_reference_deletes_attachment, but the description does not identify these tests, the backend suite, installation steps, or expected results.

Resolution

Add testing instructions. State how to install requirements-testing.txt. State how to run specifyweb/backend/workbench/upload/tests/testschema.py, specifyweb/backend/businessrules/tests/test_attachment_rules.py, and the backend test suite. State that test_column_options_parse must pass without the many.more error and that the attachment test must verify the deletion call and database cleanup.

Minor · Use distinct attachment fixture values. · test_attachment_rules.py:88-89

specifyweb/backend/businessrules/tests/test_attachment_rules.py:88-89
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Use distinct attachment fixture values.

The fixture sets both origfilename and attachmentlocation to "test.jpg". Therefore, the assertion also passes if the post-delete handler sends origfilename or the former hard-coded "test.jpg" to delete_attachment_file. Use distinct values so the test detects an incorrect deletion location.

Suggested fix
-        attachmentlocation="test.jpg",
+        attachmentlocation="stored-test.jpg",
