* fix(research, tasks): Make research command and task updates tag-aware * refactor(tasks): Prevent automatic task file generation across other locations This commit refactors several core task management functions to prevent them from automatically regenerating individual task files after modifying the main `tasks.json`. Previously, operations like `add-task`, `clear-subtasks`, `expand-task`, and `update-task-by-id` would immediately trigger `generateTaskFiles`. This could be slow and was often unnecessary. The calls to `generateTaskFiles` have been removed or commented out from the core task functions. Users should now run `task-master generate` explicitly to update their individual task files. Additionally, this commit includes fixes to the `move` command to make it fully tag-aware. * fix: move and clear subtasks mcp commands * chore: fix format * chore: fix unit tests --------- Co-authored-by: Ralph Khreish <35776126+Crunchyman-ralph@users.noreply.github.com>
Task Master Test Suite
This directory contains tests for the Task Master CLI. The tests are organized into different categories to ensure comprehensive test coverage.
Test Structure
unit/: Unit tests for individual functions and componentsintegration/: Integration tests for testing interactions between componentse2e/: End-to-end tests for testing complete workflowsfixtures/: Test fixtures and sample data
Running Tests
To run all tests:
npm test
To run tests in watch mode (for development):
npm run test:watch
To run tests with coverage reporting:
npm run test:coverage
Testing Approach
Unit Tests
Unit tests focus on testing individual functions and components in isolation. These tests should be fast and should mock external dependencies.
Integration Tests
Integration tests focus on testing interactions between components. These tests ensure that components work together correctly.
End-to-End Tests
End-to-end tests focus on testing complete workflows from a user's perspective. These tests ensure that the CLI works correctly as a whole.
Test Fixtures
Test fixtures provide sample data for tests. Fixtures should be small, focused, and representative of real-world data.
Mocking
For external dependencies like file system operations and API calls, we use mocking to isolate the code being tested.
- File system operations: Use
mock-fsto mock the file system - API calls: Use Jest's mocking capabilities to mock API responses
Test Coverage
We aim for at least 80% test coverage for all code paths. Coverage reports can be generated with:
npm run test:coverage
