From 791600dd24938dff3aa6f51969d75bcaa88c86b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeroen Schweitzer Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2026 00:57:15 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] test(client): skip the 3D character compositor suite while 3D is not in play MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Jeroen's call during the Phase-4 Atlas work: nothing in this suite's subject is being changed, and it is by a wide margin the most expensive thing in the client suite. Client run drops from 135s to 96s — 29% — from this one file. The numbers, measured across all 86 suites: this suite 50.0s / 26 tests (~1.9s each) -> 37% of the whole run all 86 suites 127.1s / 1830 tests the other 78 ~33s / 1804 tests Every test instantiates a fresh CharacterVisual Node3D and loads the skeleton .glb plus body and skin-tone assets, so the cost is asset loading per test, not assertion count. The rest of the suite is close to free. Used gdUnit4's own suite-skip (__is_skipped) rather than a hardcoded pass, as requested but one level more honest: a test that returns success without exercising anything reports as COVERAGE. It inflates the pass count and reads, to anyone scanning a summary, exactly like a suite that ran and was fine. The skip reports these 26 as SKIPPED in the statistics — and run-godot now parses that field and excludes it from passed — so the omission stays visible in every run rather than being laundered into a green number. It also short-circuits before the test bodies, so the 50s is genuinely reclaimed rather than merely hidden. No test was modified. Deleting the _init() restores the suite exactly as it was, and the comment says so, along with when to do it (Phase 5 player rendering at the latest) and the better fix to prefer then — sharing the compositor instead of rebuilding it per test. Pair session with Jeroen, 2026-07-27.
