Pyxis Tests

Three test surfaces, each runnable independently.

1. Pyxis-unique pytest suite

Native C++ tests of pyxis-unique code (BLE fragmenter, HDLC, etc.) and Python tests of build scripts.

/usr/bin/python3 -m pytest tests/build_scripts tests/native -v

System Python 3.9 has pytest pre-installed; Homebrew Python does not.

• build_scripts/test_patch_nimble.py — verifies patch_nimble.py idempotency, drift detection, missing-file handling
• build_scripts/test_patch_littlefs_paths.py — verifies non-destructive LittleFS mounting, patch idempotency/drift handling, and persistent-partition isolation
• native/test_hdlc.{cpp,py} — HDLC escape/unescape/frame round-trip + golden vector against Python RNS
• native/test_ble_fragmenter.{cpp,py} — BLEFragmenter ↔ BLEReassembler: in-order, out-of-order, duplicate, dropped+timeout, per-peer isolation, MTU change
• native/test_ble_peer_manager.{cpp,py} — connection-map state machine: discover, identity promotion, blacklist, handle map cleanup, MAC rotation, pool exhaustion
• native/test_ble_operation_queue.{cpp,py} — GATT op queue: FIFO, busy-state, timeout, clearForConnection, builder
• native/test_ring_buffers.{cpp,py} — PCM + encoded SPSC ring buffers, including 100k-frame multithreaded producer/consumer stress
• native/test_audio_filters.{cpp,py} — VoiceFilterChain frequency response, peak limiting, multichannel
• native/test_call_command_mailbox.{cpp,py} — generation-scoped LXST hangup/mute command handoff and producer/consumer stress
• native/test_call_start_mailbox.{cpp,py} — exact 16-byte LXST outgoing-call handoff, duplicate rejection, and reusable producer/consumer stress
• native/test_call_generation_guard.{cpp,py} — atomic, generation-scoped call admission, stale-owner protection, and repeated two-thread reservation races
• native/test_call_link_ownership.{cpp,py} — exact 128-bit LXST link ownership publication, mixed-ID publication stress, and generation-bound deferred-close concurrency
• native/test_lxst_signal_parser.{cpp,py} — bounded MessagePack parsing for legacy one-signal and current LXST profile+duplex signalling arrays

Adding a new native C++ test

Pattern: pure C++ unit + thin pytest wrapper.

1. Write tests/native/test_<thing>.cpp — include from ../../{src,lib/...} for the unit under test, use the existing EXPECT_EQ/EXPECT_TRUE/RUN(name) framework, return non-zero on any failure.
2. If the unit pulls in microReticulum types, the shims in tests/native/ cover what's been needed so far:
   • Bytes.h → bytes_shim.h (minimal RNS::Bytes — append/data/size/writable/resize/mid)
   • Log.h (no-op TRACE/WARNING/INFO/ERROR macros)
   • Utilities/OS.h (OS::time() with set_fake_time()/clear_fake_time())
3. Write tests/native/test_<thing>.py — copy the test_hdlc.py template, swap source/include paths, run.
4. Confirm: /usr/bin/python3 -m pytest tests/native/test_<thing>.py -v

2. LXST audio interop tests

Python tests verifying wire format and codec compatibility between pyxis (C++), Python LXST, and LXST-kt (Kotlin).

/usr/bin/python3 -m pytest tests/interop -v

Requires pycodec2 and access to $HOME/repos/public/LXST.

3. microReticulum native unit tests (PlatformIO)

The fork's microReticulum tests live under deps/microReticulum/test/ and run via PlatformIO Unity.

cd deps/microReticulum && pio test -e native17

Use native17, not native — the C++11 env is broken (static-constexpr ODR-use). Baseline as of 2026-05-02: 94/114 PASS, 7 FAIL, 5 SKIPPED, 7 suites ERRORED. The clean suites are test_os, test_bytes, test_msgpack, test_crypto, test_filesystem, test_objects, test_interop, test_general, test_reference, test_example, test_collections.
