Tmux Detector Acceptance Test Automation Setup (bead tb-5k9)

Task

Set up tmux detector acceptance test for automated execution.

Status: COMPLETE

Summary

The acceptance test infrastructure for the tmux detector (test-tmux-detector.sh) is fully operational and ready for automated execution.

Verified Components

1. Test Script: `test-tmux-detector.sh`

Location: /home/coding/trail-boss/test-tmux-detector.sh
Status: Executable (-rwxrwxr-x)
Size: 8297 bytes
Purpose: Phase 7 tmux detector acceptance scenario test
Test coverage:
- Auto-discovery of panes with @tb- prefix
- Registration and tracking
- Stuck detection at prompts
- Enqueue with reason='stopped'
- Unstick on activity
- Dequeue verification

2. Wrapper Script: `test-wrapper.sh`

Location: /home/coding/trail-boss/test-wrapper.sh
Status: Executable (-rwxrwxr-x)
Size: 1311 bytes
Purpose: Captures output, timing, and exit status for automated execution

Wrapper capabilities:

Timestamped output to test-results/ directory
JSON summary with:
- test: Test name
- status: "pass" or "fail"
- exit_code: Numeric exit code
- duration_seconds: Test runtime
- timestamp: Execution timestamp
- output_file: Path to full log

3. Output Directory: `test-results/`

Location: /home/coding/trail-boss/test-results/
Contents: Timestamped log files and JSON summaries

Validation Results

Programmatic Execution

./test-wrapper.sh
# Produces:
# - test-results/tmux-detector-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.log (full output)
# - test-results/tmux-detector-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS-summary.json (parsed summary)

JSON Parsing Validation

import json
with open('test-results/tmux-detector-20260702-114630-summary.json') as f:
    d = json.load(f)
    # Returns: {'test': 'tmux-detector-acceptance', 'status': 'fail', ...}

Known Test Issue

The acceptance test currently shows "fail" status due to a documented test isolation issue (see notes/tb-23i.md):

The test creates an isolated tmux server with custom socket
The detector uses the default tmux command and doesn't support custom sockets
This is a test infrastructure issue, not a detector viability issue
The detector works correctly in production (main tmux server)

This does not affect the wrapper's ability to parse pass/fail status—the wrapper correctly captures and reports the test's exit status.
