/search answers a warm query under 50 ms and searches with JavaScript off, and a test holds both #9715

I added `test/search-page.test.ts` with two tests, and both pass; `tsc` and `scripts/gate.ts` print no errors. I didn't touch `src/web/pages/search.ts`, because the tests found no gap in it. I didn't run the design lint because I changed nothing under `src/web/`. I also didn't run mutations to confirm the "fail if" half of the issue.

shipped production is serving it deploy 4cb4bc0
I didn't change anything, because I found no fault in the pull. The preview log shows the app booting and "apps are up" at lab--9715--forge-trevato-apps.open-platform.sh. The only complaint is "no tests declared, none run", and I read that as a note, not a failing test.
forge.json on main has no test command for the deploy to run. Its tests run through check.fast, check.run and check.verify, and the forge runs those against every push to the pull. My pull only adds test/search-page.test.ts. It touches no runtime code and no forge.json.
I haven't seen the check's own verdict for the pull. test/search-page.test.ts passed when I ran it here, and tsc and scripts/gate.ts printed no errors. If the check does fail, send me its log and I'll fix it.
I also didn't add a test entry to forge.json to quiet the note. That would change how every deploy runs, and this issue doesn't ask for it.
I changed the warm-query test in test/search-page.test.ts so it counts work instead of timing it. That test failed the check's rule against raw wall-clock budgets in tests (#4429). I pushed the fix, but the forge's check hasn't run on it yet.
- What changed: the test is now "a warm query is served from cache: no grep runs". It asserts, with
expectWork(...)fromtest/helpers/work.ts, that a repeat of the same search runs no grep. It still checks that theServer-Timingheader parses, but no longer judges the value. - What I left out: nothing in the tests now enforces the "under 50 ms" figure. A cache miss would still show up as a grep, but a slow cache hit would not.
- Checks run:
bun test test/search-page.test.tspasses (2 tests) andbun x tsc --noEmitis clean. I didn't runscripts/gate.ts, and I didn't run the wall-clock rule's own test, so I haven't confirmed the rule is satisfied.
Box 1 is not met: nothing in this head asserts that a warm /search answers under 50 ms. The test only checks that server-timing parses (expect(totalMs(second)).not.toBeNaN()), so a slow cache hit passes. The test also looks for a total; phase, but the preview sends none. It sends app;dur=… and several others, so totalMs falls back to summing every phase, including the forge-* proxy phases that overlap app. That is a bug in the helper.
The preview shows the 50 ms figure is at risk. My one request, /search?q=forge, took app;dur=47.3 with code;dur=33.9. I can't tell whether that request was warm. The 50 ms bound has to come from something that holds on a loaded runner and still fails when the cache is lost.
Changes needed, all in one round:
- Assert the 50 ms bound without a raw wall-clock number, since the #4429 rule forbids one. For example, assert the warm response's
codeandappphases are cache-hit shaped (code;dursmall relative to the first answer), or assert the bound through a work-count helper. If the bound cannot be tested within #4429, add an explicit allow-listed exception in the rule, with a reason, rather than dropping the bound. Parse the phase you are judging (app), not a sum. - Remove the
total;fallback and the sum-of-phases logic intotalMs. It double counts theforge-*phases. - Tighten the no-JS test.
expect(main).not.toContain("alice/plain-repo</span")is fragile because it depends on markup you do not control. Assert instead that no result row forplain-repoappears, using the row's real class or href. The script regex<script…(fetch|XMLHttpRequest|/api/)also misses external scripts, because CSP servesscript-src 'self'. Assert that the result rows exist even when every<script src>is stripped from the HTML. - Box 3 needs a mutation check. Show that each test fails if the page is client-rendered, and that the cache test fails if the cache is bypassed. At present the cache test only proves the repeat runs no
git grep.
The form assertions (GET, /search, type=search name=q, submit button) are good. This is a test-only pull, so there are no runtime, TUI or docs changes, and I did not check the TUI or docs door. The preview was fetched only once and I did not inspect the page body.
This is a test-only change in test/search-page.test.ts. The 50 ms bound is now held as work counts, not a clock. bun x tsc --noEmit is clean and the three tests in the file pass. I haven't run scripts/gate.ts, the wall-clock rule's own test, or the forge's check on the new head.
What changed, against your four points
- The 50 ms bound. A warm repeat of
/search?q=fluxmust run zerogit grepcalls, counted withgrepCount, and at most 40 SQL statements (24 measured). Both go throughexpectWork, so #4429 is not touched and no exception is needed. Theappphase fromServer-Timingis only checked for being present. It is never judged, because that would be a raw clock. totalMs. Removed, along with the sum-of-phases andtotal;fallback. It is replaced byappMs, which reads only theappphase.- No-JS test.
- It is split in two: the form assertions are unchanged, and a new test checks the results.
- The results test strips every <script> from the HTML, then asserts on hrefs. The repo, issue and code rows must be present.
- plain-repo has no repo row, meaning /alice/plain-repo is absent. It does appear as a code hit under /blob/, because its file contains "flux". The old markup check (alice/plain-repo</span) hid that; the href check states it.
- Mutations, run by hand and not kept as tests.
- Bypassing grepCache.get fails the warm-query test (reverted).
- Pointing the results test at a query with no matches makes it fail. This stands in for a page whose results are rendered by script rather than in the HTML. I did not try a real client-rendered version.
Disagreement and limits
- The statement ceiling catches an N+1 or a lost cache. It cannot catch a slow cache hit that still makes the same number of queries. Nothing available under #4429 does that, and I did not add an exception.
- Your
app;dur=47.3on the preview is a single sample, and I can't say whether it was warm. I did not investigate that figure.
Test-only pull; the clone lacks 92389476bf2e so I read the whole file. The earlier ask to drop the raw wall-clock budget (#4429) is met: the warm path is held as zero greps plus a statement ceiling, and the results test asserts on hrefs with scripts stripped. Preview serves /search. Next, non-blocking: (1) add a mutation-style test or note covering a slow cache hit with the same statement count, which the ceiling cannot catch; (2) add docs/features mention if /search has a how-to, so the no-JS guarantee is documented.
I added
test/search-page.test.tswith two tests, and both pass;tscandscripts/gate.tsprint no errors. I didn't touchsrc/web/pages/search.ts, because the tests found no gap in it. I didn't run the design lint because I changed nothing undersrc/web/. I also didn't run mutations to confirm the "fail if" half of the issue. I checked the assertions by reading them, not by breaking the page and watching them fail.What the tests hold
GET /search?q=fluxtwice. On the second answer, the summedserver-timingphase durations must be under 50 ms. I sum the phases because the header has nototalphase today; the test usestotalif one appears. The second answer must also run no newgit grep(checked withgrepCount()). That check is what catches a lost cache, since a cache miss on a tiny repo may not reach 50 ms.role="search"form is a plainmethod="get"to/search, with aqsearch input and a submit button. The repos, issues and code rows for the query are all in the server's HTML. A repo whose description and name don't match is absent from the results. No script in the page fetches results.What I left out
