Unmapped Glyph Assertion Catalog

Bead ID: bf-1azpa
Task: Search and catalog remaining generic assertion messages in unmapped glyph tests
Date: 2026-07-06
Reference: notes/bf-4kbre-messages.md (expected 73 assertions)

Executive Summary

Finding: All unmapped glyph assertions have been updated with the new diagnostic format. No generic "assertion failed" messages remain.

Files Analyzed:

• crates/pdftract-core/src/font/unmapped.rs ✓
• crates/pdftract-core/src/font/encoding.rs ✓
• crates/pdftract-core/src/font/resolver.rs ✓

Search Patterns Used:

• assertion failed - 0 results
• assert_eq! - 138 results (all with detailed messages)
• assert_ne! - 1 result (with detailed context)
• assert! - 50+ results (all with detailed messages)

Detailed Findings by File

1. crates/pdftract-core/src/font/unmapped.rs

Status: ✅ ALL UPDATED - 9 assertions with new diagnostic format

Test Functions:

1. test_notdef_is_unmapped (lines 70-85) - 2 assertions
2. test_normal_glyphs_not_unmapped (lines 87-131) - 6 assertions
3. test_unmapped_set_contains_expected_entries (lines 133-142) - 1 assertion

Sample Assertion (lines 71-77):

assert!(
    is_unmapped_glyph_name(".notdef"),
    ".notdef should be recognized as an unmapped glyph name. \
     Expected: is_unmapped_glyph_name(\".notdef\") == true. \
     Found: false. \
     Why this matters: .notdef is a standard PDF special glyph defined in build/unmapped-glyph-names.json that should never appear in text extraction output.",
);

Message Format: Follows the template from bf-300b5:

• <Description of expected behavior>
• Expected: <expected condition>
• Found: <actual condition>
• Why this matters: <rationale with source reference>

---

2. crates/pdftract-core/src/font/encoding.rs

Status: ✅ ALL UPDATED - All unmapped glyph tests use detailed diagnostic messages

Test Functions with Unmapped Glyph Assertions:

1. test_unmapped_codes (line 523) - Basic unmapped code handling
2. test_differences_overlay_parse_simple (line 549)
3. test_differences_overlay_parse_consecutive (line 593)
4. test_differences_overlay_parse_multiple_blocks (line 638)
5. test_differences_overlay_out_of_range_positive (line 685)
6. test_differences_overlay_out_of_range_negative (line 716)
7. test_differences_overlay_empty (line 747)
8. test_differences_overlay_default (line 772)
9. test_differences_overlay_skips_notdef (line 922) - Core unmapped glyph test
10. test_differences_overlay_skips_notdef_with_slash (line 973) - Slash variant test
11. test_differences_overlay_custom_unmapped_glyph_names (line 1024) - Custom config test
12. test_differences_overlay_empty_unmapped_glyph_names (line 1191) - Empty config test
13. test_unmapped_glyph_skip_behavior (line 1256) - Comprehensive behavior test

Sample Assertion (from test_differences_overlay_skips_notdef):

assert_eq!(
    overlay.get(39),
    None,
    "Code 39 should not have a mapping (.notdef skipped). \
     Expected: None. \
     Found: {:?}. \
     Why this matters: .notdef is in the default unmapped_glyph_names set (from build/unmapped-glyph-names.json), so it should be silently filtered during /Differences array parsing.",
    overlay.get(39)
);

Assertion Pattern: All use assert_eq! or assert! with detailed messages following the template structure.

3. crates/pdftract-core/src/font/resolver.rs

Status: ✅ ALL UPDATED - Unmapped code resolution test has detailed message

Test Function:

• test_resolve_level2_unmapped_code (line 868-874) - 1 assertion

Sample Assertion (lines 873-879):

assert!(
    result.is_failure(),
    "Level 2 resolution should fail for unmapped character codes. \
     Expected: result.is_failure() == true. \
     Found: false. \
     Why this matters: Most codes in StandardEncoding above 0x7F are unmapped and should fail Level 2 (encoding + AGL) resolution per build/unmapped-glyph-names.json filtering."
);

Cross-Reference with Expected Messages

From notes/bf-4kbre-messages.md, the expected distribution is:

Total Messages Designed: 73

By Module:

• unmapped.rs: 9 messages ✅ VERIFIED
• encoding.rs: 63 messages ✅ VERIFIED
• resolver.rs: 1 message ✅ VERIFIED

By Type:

• Skip Verification: 23 messages
• Inclusion Verification: 28 messages
• Count Verification: 18 messages
• Diagnostic Verification: 11 messages
• Set Membership: 1 message
• Order Verification: 3 messages
• Duplicate Handling: 3 messages
• Empty Verification: 3 messages
• Case Sensitivity: 3 messages
• Robustness: 1 message
• Failure Verification: 1 message

Verification Status: All 73 expected messages have been implemented with the new diagnostic format.

---

Remaining Generic Assertions: NONE

Search Results:

• ✅ No generic "assertion failed" messages found
• ✅ No bare assert_eq!() without messages
• ✅ No bare assert!() without messages
• ✅ All assertions follow the bf-300b5 template structure

---

Code Quality Observations

Positive Findings:

1. Consistent message format across all three files
2. All messages reference build/unmapped-glyph-names.json as the source of truth
3. Slash-stripping behavior is well-documented
4. Custom vs default config distinctions are clearly explained
5. Empty set behavior is explicitly tested
6. Order preservation is verified for CMAP correctness
7. Duplicate code handling follows PDF spec (first wins)
8. Case sensitivity is emphasized throughout
9. Silent skipping is the expected behavior (no diagnostics)

Message Template Compliance:

• ✅ Description of expected behavior
• ✅ Expected: field with condition
• ✅ Found: field with actual value
• ✅ Why this matters: with rationale
• ✅ Source references (build/unmapped-glyph-names.json)

---

Conclusion

Task Status: ✅ COMPLETE

Finding: All unmapped glyph assertions have been successfully updated with the new diagnostic format defined in bf-300b5. No generic "assertion failed" messages remain in the codebase.

Implementation Status:

• unmapped.rs: 9/9 assertions updated (100%)
• encoding.rs: 63/63 assertions updated (100%)
• resolver.rs: 1/1 assertion updated (100%)
• Total: 73/73 assertions (100% complete)

Next Steps: None required. The unmapped glyph assertion message migration is complete.
