Test Patterns

Existing Legacy Format Fixture

def _create_feature(tmp_path: Path) -> Path:
    """Creates LEGACY format with tasks/planned/ subdirectory"""
    feature_dir = tmp_path / "kitty-specs" / "001-demo-feature"
    (feature_dir / "tasks" / "planned").mkdir(parents=True)
    # ... creates WP in tasks/planned/WP01-demo.md

New Format Fixture (to add)

def _create_new_format_feature(tmp_path: Path) -> Path:
    """Creates NEW format with flat tasks/ directory"""
    feature_dir = tmp_path / "kitty-specs" / "002-new-feature"
    (feature_dir / "tasks").mkdir(parents=True)
    # ... creates WP in tasks/WP01-demo.md (no subdirectory)
    # Lane determined by frontmatter: lane: doing

Verification Commands

# Run scanner tests only
pytest tests/test_dashboard/test_scanner.py -v

# Run all dashboard tests
pytest tests/test_dashboard/ -v

# Run with coverage
pytest tests/test_dashboard/test_scanner.py -v --cov=src/specify_cli/dashboard/scanner

Success Checklist

• □ New format tests pass
• □ Legacy format tests still pass
• □ is_legacy_format() detection tests pass
• □ Edge case tests pass (missing lane defaults to "planned")
