From 6d5c731d2eef227b52ba7e247ceaabaac0172e2e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kpa-clawbot Date: Thu, 28 May 2026 08:10:49 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fix(test): deflake channel-color-picker outside-click test (real fix) (#1462) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit ## Summary Master CI has been failing on `test-channel-color-picker-e2e.js` — the "outside click closes popover" step — most recently on run [26574358472](https://github.com/Kpa-clawbot/CoreScope/actions/runs/26574358472) (master push `d24246395`). The previous deflake attempt (#1317, commit 62a81776) only papered over part of the race. ## Root cause `showPopover` in `public/channel-color-picker.js:148-152` installs the document-level outside-click listener inside a `setTimeout(0)`: ```js setTimeout(function() { document.addEventListener('click', onOutsideClick, true); document.addEventListener('keydown', onEscape, true); }, 0); ``` The previous fix tried to wait for that listener with a `rect.width > 0` "popover visible" proxy — but visibility ≠ listener install. Under CI load, the macrotask can be deferred past Playwright's polling resolution, so `page.mouse.click(700, 500)` fires before the listener exists, the click is dropped, and the second `waitForFunction` runs out the 8s default timeout. ## Fix (test-only) 1. **Drain pending macrotasks node-side** with `requestAnimationFrame` × 2 + `setTimeout(0)` before clicking, so the same scheduler tier the listener uses has definitely run. 2. **Retry the outside click in a small loop** (up to 10×, 1s each). Even if the very first synthetic click still races install, subsequent clicks land cleanly. Each retry is cheap (~ms), and `assert(closed, ...)` gives a clear failure message if the popover never hides. ## Verification | Scenario | Old test | New test | |---|---|---| | Baseline (no artificial delay) | passes | 45/45 clean runs locally | | Artificially delay listener install to **250ms** | **5/5 FAIL** | 5/5 PASS (popover closes on retry #2) | Production code untouched. Comment block in-test captures the history so the next person doesn't re-introduce the race. ## Linked - Supersedes the partial fix in #1317 - CI run that exposed it: https://github.com/Kpa-clawbot/CoreScope/actions/runs/26574358472 Co-authored-by: Kpa-clawbot --- test-channel-color-picker-e2e.js | 65 ++++++++++++++++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 46 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-) diff --git a/test-channel-color-picker-e2e.js b/test-channel-color-picker-e2e.js index 5081b8c4..c8cc335e 100644 --- a/test-channel-color-picker-e2e.js +++ b/test-channel-color-picker-e2e.js @@ -162,27 +162,54 @@ function assert(c, m) { if (!c) throw new Error(m || 'assertion failed'); } }); await step('outside click closes popover', async () => { + // De-flake history: #1317 (62a81776) tried `mouse.click(700,500)` + a + // `rect.width > 0` "listener installed" proxy.
