Pull request overview
Adds a dedicated unit test suite for compiler_orchestrator_workflow.go to cover the workflow compilation orchestration path and several helper functions involved in extracting/merging workflow configuration from frontmatter and imports.
Changes:
- Introduces
pkg/workflow/compiler_orchestrator_workflow_test.gowith extensive tests for orchestration and helper functions (YAML section extraction, step/service merging, job merging, and filter processing). - Adds coverage for success paths (phase sequencing) and a couple of error-propagation scenarios.
- Validates
WorkflowIDgeneration behavior from markdown filenames.

- The yaml.Marshal error is ignored here. If marshaling fails, the test may not actually validate copilot-setup ordering. Please assert marshal success (require.NoError) before using the YAML string.

- The yaml.Marshal error is ignored here. If marshaling fails, the test will proceed with empty/partial YAML and may pass/fail for the wrong reason. Please assert marshal success (e.g., require.NoError) before using the YAML string.

- This test only asserts
workflowDatais non-nil after processOnSectionAndFilters returns, so it won’t catch regressions in on-section parsing/default application. Add at least one assertion on a concrete output field (e.g.,workflowData.Oncontainspull_request).

// Basic validation that processing succeeded

- The tools map in this test uses
"bash": []string{...}. In production, YAML unmarshalling yields[]any, andparseBashToolonly accepts[]any;[]stringresults intools.Bash == nil(invalid bash config). Use[]any{"echo"}(orbash: true/false) so this test reflects real frontmatter types and won’t break if tool validation becomes stricter.

The yaml.Marshal error is ignored here. If marshaling fails, the test won’t actually exercise copilot-setup merging. Please check the error (require.NoError) before setting CopilotSetupSteps.

The tools map here uses "bash": []string{...} which doesn’t match the types produced by YAML unmarshalling ([]any). Since parseBashTool only accepts []any, this config is effectively invalid. Use []any{"echo", "ls"} (or bash: true) to better match real inputs and avoid future validation-related failures.

This draft-filter test only asserts workflowData is non-nil, which doesn’t validate that the draft condition was applied. Add an assertion that workflowData.If now includes a draft-related expression (e.g., github.event.pull_request.draft).

The fork filter treats forks as either a string glob (e.g. "org/" or "") or a []any of patterns. Using forks: "ignore" isn’t a supported semantic and will generate a meaningless allowlist pattern. Use a realistic pattern (or omit forks to test the default disallow-forks behavior) and assert the expected fork condition is added to workflowData.If.

The test is named "LabelFilter" but the frontmatter uses labels instead of the implemented key names, and types is []string (the filter logic expects []any as produced by YAML unmarshalling). As written, applyLabelFilter won’t run. Update the test data to use names and YAML-accurate types, and assert that workflowData.If includes a github.event.label.name condition.

This test uses a direct type assertion result["test"].(map[string]any) which will panic (and obscure the failure cause) if the job config isn’t the expected type. Prefer a checked assertion (require.IsType / ok check) before accessing fields.
| testJob := result["test"].(map[string]any) | |
| jobAny := result["test"] | |
| require.IsType(t, map[string]any{}, jobAny) | |
| testJob := jobAny.(map[string]any) |
