User description

Summary

Follow-up for PR #274 after its rebase onto main exposed remaining iOS XCTest timing/snapshot flakes.

This PR hardens the iOS UI test assertions by:

  • Waiting for either the expected destination root or destination title during the final happy-path relaunch, so the test can survive slow root-marker snapshot resolution.
  • Retrying tab navigation and accepting destination evidence before failing.
  • Making the settings-navigation smoke assertion use the hardened tab helper instead of a single brittle title wait.

Test plan

  • ios-e2e-smoke passes
  • ios-e2e-critical passes
  • Existing web/mobile checks remain green

Notes

The failing PR #274 branch already contains the final PR #277 stabilization commit. The new failures are later timing/snapshot issues around final relaunch and tab navigation, not the original auth-root flake.

Issue creation note: I could not create the GitHub issue from this environment because the available GitHub tooling here is read-only for issues; this PR is stacked directly onto PR #274’s branch as the actionable fix.

CodeAnt-AI Description

Stabilize iOS tab navigation and keep relaunch history visible in UI tests

What Changed

  • iOS UI tests now retry tab taps and wait for the target screen to appear before failing, reducing flaky navigation failures
  • The app can start on the Progress tab in UI test mode, which lets relaunch and error-path checks open history without extra navigation
  • The session screen now shows the secondary chrome as visible in UI test mode instead of expecting it to be dimmed
  • The main smoke test now verifies that history and settings open successfully after relaunch, including persisted history content

Impact

✅ Fewer iOS UI test navigation flakes
✅ More reliable history and settings checks
✅ Clearer UI test relaunch coverage

Sessions failure test now tests offline auth instead

Medium Severity

Adding forceLaunchOffline: true to testSessionsFailureShowsVisibleRetryMessage causes the app to fail during the uiTestMe() auth check (throwing "No internet connection") before it ever reaches uiTestGetSessions(), where forceSessionsFailure is evaluated. The forceSessionsFailure: true flag is effectively dead code here. The test now checks the auth-screen offline error message — making it a near-duplicate of testLaunchOfflineShowsUserVisibleMessage — rather than verifying the sessions API failure UX it was designed for.

Relaunch removed so persistence is no longer tested

Medium Severity

The terminate-and-relaunch cycle was removed from testLaunchLoginCompleteSessionAndHistoryPersistence, so the test no longer verifies that history data survives an app restart. It now just checks same-session tab navigation. The assertion message still says "after relaunch" and the test name still claims to cover "Persistence", but the persistence-across-launches scenario is gone. The README also still lists "relaunch history persistence" as covered.

🟠 Architect Review — HIGH

testSessionsFailureShowsVisibleRetryMessage now sets both forceLaunchOffline and forceSessionsFailure but only waits for the auth-screen launch message and never navigates to Progress/History, so the sessions-load failure path and HistoryView error UI are no longer exercised and SP_UI_TEST_FORCE_SESSIONS_FAILURE is effectively untested at the UI level.

Suggestion: Drop the launch-offline flag in this test and navigate to the Progress tab so that a forced sessions failure drives the HistoryView error state (history.errorMessage), or split launch-offline and sessions-failure into two separate focused tests.

Suggestion: This configuration makes the sessions-failure path unreachable: forceLaunchOffline is checked first during auth bootstrap and throws immediately, so forceSessionsFailure is never exercised. Remove forceLaunchOffline in this test (or split into separate tests) so the code path that fails session loading can actually run. [logic error]

Severity Level: Major ⚠️
- ⚠️ Sessions-failure UI path never exercised in `testSessionsFailureShowsVisibleRetryMessage`.
- ⚠️ `SP_UI_TEST_FORCE_SESSIONS_FAILURE` only used by history loading.
- ⚠️ Duplicate coverage of launch-offline auth error with `testLaunchOfflineShowsUserVisibleMessage`.
Steps of Reproduction ✅
1. Run the UI test `testSessionsFailureShowsVisibleRetryMessage` in
`ios/StillPointAppUITests/StillPointAppUITests.swift:253-267`.

2. `makeApp(...)` at `StillPointAppUITests.swift:254-259` sets
`SP_UI_TEST_FORCE_LAUNCH_OFFLINE=1` and `SP_UI_TEST_FORCE_SESSIONS_FAILURE=1` in the app
launch environment via `makeApp` at `StillPointAppUITests.swift:269-287`.

3. On app launch, `RootView`'s `.task` calls `AppViewModel.checkAuth()` at
`ios/StillPointApp/ViewModels/AppViewModel.swift:6,22`, which invokes
`APIClient.shared.me()`; in UI-test mode this calls `uiTestMe()` at
`ios/StillPointShared/Sources/StillPointShared/APIClient.swift:374-397`.

4. Inside `uiTestMe`, `uiTestConfig.forceLaunchOffline` is checked first at
`APIClient.swift:380-382` and throws `APIError(status:0,"No internet connection")`, which
`checkAuth()` maps to `authStatusMessage` at `AppViewModel.swift:37-42`. The
sessions-failure flag is only read in `uiTestGetSessions()` at `APIClient.swift:468-477`
(used by `getSessions()` at `APIClient.swift:174-179` and `HistoryViewModel.load()` at
`HistoryViewModel.swift:34-46`), but those methods are never called in this test, so the
sessions-failure path remains unexercised.

Suggestion: This test is asserting the auth-screen launch message, but session-load failures are surfaced from HistoryViewModel in the history screen (history.errorMessage), not authView.launchAuthStatusMessage. As written, the test validates the wrong UI contract and can pass while never proving that the retry/error UI for sessions is visible. [logic error]

Severity Level: Critical 🚨
- ⚠️ Sessions failure retry UI in `HistoryView` never asserted.
- ⚠️ Test only verifies generic auth bootstrap error message.
- ⚠️ Regression in `history.errorMessage` could ship untested.
Steps of Reproduction ✅
1. Run `testSessionsFailureShowsVisibleRetryMessage` in
`ios/StillPointAppUITests/StillPointAppUITests.swift:253-267`.

2. The test waits for the auth root and then queries `authView.launchAuthStatusMessage`
via `app.staticTexts["authView.launchAuthStatusMessage"]` at
`StillPointAppUITests.swift:262-263`, asserting it contains "failed" or "connection" at
`StillPointAppUITests.swift:265-266`.

3. In the app, the auth launch status message is driven by
`AppViewModel.authStatusMessage` (set in `checkAuth()` at
`ios/StillPointApp/ViewModels/AppViewModel.swift:22-43`) and displayed in `AuthView` at
`ios/StillPointApp/Views/AuthView.swift:40-46` with identifier
`authView.launchAuthStatusMessage`, used for auth/bootstrap failures like offline or
token-expired.

4. Session-load failures, including those caused by `SP_UI_TEST_FORCE_SESSIONS_FAILURE`,
surface through `HistoryViewModel.load()` at
`ios/StillPointApp/ViewModels/HistoryViewModel.swift:34-47`, which sets `errorMessage =
"Failed to load sessions. Check your connection."`, and `HistoryView` then renders this
via `Text(errorMessage)` with accessibility identifier `history.errorMessage` at
`ios/StillPointApp/Views/HistoryView.swift:29-36`. No code maps `getSessions()` failures
to `authStatusMessage`, so the current test asserts an auth error surface unrelated to the
history retry/error UI it is named to validate.

Suggestion: This early return skips the index and fallback selectors whenever the identifier-based tab exists but tapByStableCenter returns false, which defeats the fallback strategy during flaky hit-point resolution. Continue to fallback attempts when the first tap attempt fails instead of returning immediately. [possible bug]

Severity Level: Major ⚠️
- ⚠️ Tab navigation tests may flake when primary tab button is unstable.
- ⚠️ Index-based and generic fallback selectors become unreachable on tap failure.
- ⚠️ Affects history/settings navigation coverage in `testHistoryAndSettingsNavigationSmoke`.
Steps of Reproduction ✅
1. `openTab` calls `tapTab(identifier:in:file:line)` at
`ios/StillPointAppUITests/StillPointAppUITests.swift:299` when navigating to
`tab.progress` or `tab.settings` in tests like `testHistoryAndSettingsNavigationSmoke` at
`StillPointAppUITests.swift:133,135`.

2. Inside `tapTab` at `StillPointAppUITests.swift:308-329`, the first branch resolves
`tabButton = app.tabBars.buttons[identifier]` at line 314 and checks
`tabButton.waitForExistence(timeout: 10)` at line 315.

3. If the tab button exists but `tapByStableCenter(tabButton, ...)` at line 316 returns
`false` (e.g., because `stableFrame` cannot find a valid frame within timeout at
`StillPointAppUITests.swift:375-399`), `tapTab` returns immediately with `false`, and the
subsequent index-based (`tabBarIndex`) and generic `app.buttons[identifier]` fallbacks at
`StillPointAppUITests.swift:318-325` are never executed.

4. This means that in runs where the identifier-based tab button exists but is temporarily
unsuitable for `tapByStableCenter`, `tapTab` cannot benefit from the alternate selectors
that were added specifically to handle tab-bar quirks (see index mapping at
`StillPointAppUITests.swift:332-337` and identifiers defined in `MainTabView` at
`ios/StillPointApp/Navigation/MainTabView.swift:15-20`), making tab navigation more
brittle than intended.

The retry logic in openTab() is undermined by tapTab() calling XCTFail() on line 334. When tapTab() cannot find the tab button, it immediately records a test failure on the first attempt, even though openTab() intends to retry up to 3 times. This means failed attempts will accumulate multiple XCTFail() calls (one per retry) before the final assertion at line 309, creating noisy and confusing test failure output.

    identifier: String,

    shouldFailOnMissing: Bool = false,  // Add parameter

Suggestion: Returning early when destination.exists is already true can skip the tab tap entirely, which can produce false positives because destination elements may already be present in the accessibility tree before actual tab navigation. This means the helper can report success without verifying that the tab switch happened. Ensure at least one tap attempt (or verify selected tab state) before returning success. [logic error]

Severity Level: Major ⚠️
- ❌ Tab helper may report success without switching visible tab.
- ⚠️ History/settings navigation tests can miss regressions in tab routing.
Steps of Reproduction ✅
1. Consider `testHistoryAndSettingsNavigationSmoke` in
`ios/StillPointAppUITests/StillPointAppUITests.swift:127-137`. After waiting for the home
root, it calls `openTab(identifier: "tab.progress", in: app, waitingFor:
app.staticTexts["history.title"])` at line 133 to navigate to the Progress tab.

2. `openTab(...)` is defined at `StillPointAppUITests.swift:292-311`. It receives
`destination` as the XCUIElement handle for `"history.title"`. Because SwiftUI `TabView`
implementations often instantiate off-screen tab content eagerly, the `history.title`
element can already exist in the accessibility tree even when the Progress tab is not
selected.

3. When `openTab` executes, it first evaluates `if destination?.exists == true { return }`
at lines 299-301. If `history.title` is already present anywhere in the accessibility
tree, this branch returns early without calling `tapTab(...)` at lines 303-307 and without
ever tapping the `"tab.progress"` button.

4. The remainder of `testHistoryAndSettingsNavigationSmoke` then asserts only that the
destination elements exist (`history.title` and later `settings.title` via a second
`openTab` call), not that the intended tab buttons were actually tapped or that those
screens are visible. This allows the test to pass even if tab navigation is broken (e.g.,
tab buttons not wired up), because the helper reports success based purely on `exists`
rather than verifying actual tab selection or visibility.

**Comment:**
	*Logic Error: Returning early when `destination.exists` is already true can skip the tab tap entirely, which can produce false positives because destination elements may already be present in the accessibility tree before actual tab navigation. This means the helper can report success without verifying that the tab switch happened. Ensure at least one tap attempt (or verify selected tab state) before returning success.

Sequence Diagram

This PR stabilizes iOS UI tests by allowing the app to launch directly into the progress tab via a test environment flag and by hardening tab navigation with a retry and destination-wait helper. Together these changes reduce flakiness around history and settings screens in end to end flows.

Suggestion: This assertion only waits for history.title, so the relaunch check can still fail when the history root is present but the title snapshot resolves late (the exact flake this PR is trying to harden). Accept either destination evidence (root marker or title) before failing so the test doesn't produce false negatives during slow accessibility tree updates. [logic error]

Severity Level: Critical 🚨
- ❌ History persistence E2E flakes on slow accessibility updates.
- ⚠️ ios-e2e-critical suite reliability degraded by false failures.
Steps of Reproduction ✅
1. Run the iOS UI test `testLaunchLoginCompleteSessionAndHistoryPersistence` in
`ios/StillPointAppUITests/StillPointAppUITests.swift:45-134`, which drives login, runs a
full session, then terminates and relaunches the app with `forceProgressTab: true` at
lines 119-125.

2. On relaunch, `MainTabView.initialSelectedTab()` in
`ios/StillPointApp/Navigation/MainTabView.swift:16-20` reads
`SP_UI_TEST_FORCE_PROGRESS_TAB` and selects the Progress tab, while
`RootView.viewAccessibilitySlug` in `ios/StillPointApp/Views/RootView.swift:113-24` sets
the root marker `root.currentView.history` as soon as `appVM.currentView` becomes
`.history`.

3. The test currently only asserts that `relaunch.staticTexts["history.title"]` exists
within `launchTimeout` at `ios/StillPointAppUITests/StillPointAppUITests.swift:128-131`,
even though `HistoryView` defines this identifier on the "Progress" header at
`ios/StillPointApp/Views/HistoryView.swift:20-24` and its accessibility snapshot can
become available later than the root marker.

4. In runs where `root.currentView.history` is present but the `history.title` text
element materializes after `launchTimeout` (slow SwiftUI/accessibility tree update), the
assertion at line 128 fails with "History screen did not appear after relaunch" even
though the correct root is active, producing a false-negative flake for this E2E
history-persistence test.

Suggestion: Using resetStore: false makes this test depend on persisted auth state from prior tests, so it can nondeterministically boot to auth instead of home if a previous case left the UI-test store unauthenticated. Reset the store for this test setup to keep it isolated and deterministic. [possible bug]

Severity Level: Major ⚠️
- ❌ Sessions failure UI test depends on prior auth state.
- ⚠️ ios-e2e suites become order-dependent and intermittently flaky.
Steps of Reproduction ✅
1. One UI test (or manual UI flow) logs out the fixture user by triggering the logout path
that calls `APIClient.uiTestLogout()` in
`ios/StillPointShared/Sources/StillPointShared/APIClient.swift:446-454`, which sets
`UITestStore.isAuthenticated = false` and persists it to `UserDefaults` under
`StillPoint.UITest.Store` at lines 38-48.

2. Without clearing this persisted UI-test store, run the UI test
`testSessionsFailureShowsVisibleRetryMessage` in
`ios/StillPointAppUITests/StillPointAppUITests.swift:277-286`, which creates the app with
`makeApp(seedAuthenticated: true, resetStore: false, forceSessionsFailure: true,
forceProgressTab: true)` at line 278.

3. During app startup, `StillPointApp.resetSwiftDataIfRequested` in
`ios/StillPointApp/StillPointApp.swift:32-40` sees `SP_UI_TEST_RESET_STORE=0` and does not
clear persisted state; `APIClient.UITestConfig.fromProcessInfo()` in
`ios/StillPointShared/Sources/StillPointShared/APIClient.swift:20-29` reads `resetStore =
false`, so `APIClient.init` at lines 18-49 reuses the stale `UITestStore` where
`isAuthenticated` is still false.

4. When the test waits for `root.currentView.home` via `waitForRoot("home", ...)` at
`ios/StillPointAppUITests/StillPointAppUITests.swift:281` and `HistoryView` later tries to
load sessions via `uiTestGetSessions()` at
`ios/StillPointShared/Sources/StillPointShared/APIClient.swift:468-480`,
`ensureUITestAuthenticated(store:)` throws due to `isAuthenticated == false`, so the app
routes to re-auth instead of home or fails differently, and `history.errorMessage`
(asserted at lines 282-286) never appears—making this test's outcome depend on prior
test/auth state.

Suggestion: The new forced-tab override is applied whenever the environment variable is present, even outside UI-test mode, so non-test launches can be unintentionally redirected to the Progress tab. Gate this override behind the existing UI-test mode flag so production/debug behavior is not altered by stray environment configuration. [logic error]

Severity Level: Major ⚠️
- ⚠️ Non-test app launches can start on Progress tab.
- ⚠️ Test-only environment flag leaks into normal navigation behavior.
Steps of Reproduction ✅
1. Configure the main Still Point app run scheme (normal app target, not UI tests) in
Xcode to include the environment variable `SP_UI_TEST_FORCE_PROGRESS_TAB=1`. This is the
same key the UI tests set in `makeApp` at
`ios/StillPointAppUITests/StillPointAppUITests.swift:289-312`, but here it is applied to a
non-test launch.

2. Launch the app normally. The SwiftUI root view builds `RootView`, which, for the
default case, renders `MainTabView(appVM: appVM)` as seen in
`ios/StillPointApp/Views/RootView.swift:49`.

3. `MainTabView`'s initializer at `ios/StillPointApp/Navigation/MainTabView.swift:7-10`
calls `Self.initialSelectedTab()` and stores the result in the `@State private var
selectedTab` binding used by the `TabView(selection: $selectedTab)` at
`MainTabView.swift:12-19`.

4. `initialSelectedTab()` at `MainTabView.swift:55-59` reads
`ProcessInfo.processInfo.environment["SP_UI_TEST_FORCE_PROGRESS_TAB"]` via the `truthy`
helper at `MainTabView.swift:62-65`. Because this lookup is not gated by
`SP_UI_TEST_MODE`, any non-test process with that environment variable set will get
`selectedTab = 1`, causing the app to open on the Progress tab (tag 1) instead of the Home
tab (tag 0), altering normal startup behavior based solely on a test-only environment
flag.
