tests/__init__.py keeps a run offline, its scratch under tmp/ and its
installer cache its own, but only discover -s tests -t . imported it.
discover tests ran with RETROBIOS_OFFLINE unset, scratch on the /tmp
tmpfs and the user's real installer cache, the setting in which e2e
fixtures had written into the shared .cache/large. Every test module now
imports the package first, and a test fails on a module that does not.
test_verify_listing.py took its line with the previous commit.
Step 5 builds the --required-only, --no-game-data, --region, --target
and --system packs of every platform in memory and compares their paths
with verify run under the same narrowing. verify_platform gains
required_only, generate_pack a record mode. A run samples three regions,
targets and systems per platform (155 packs, about 3 minutes);
--full-narrowings compares all 1,150 (25 minutes). A test fails when
_narrowings() gains a dimension that is neither compared nor exempted.
Step 5 built emulator packs one profile at a time, where two profiles never share a path. It now also builds each system pack that gathers several profiles and compares it with verify. The first run found five standalone MSX and ColecoVision packs where verify skipped the data tree of a profile the system filter left without files, and credited msx-emu's copies the pack never wrote. verify now places those trees too: 541 system packs, all equal.
Ranking contested core claims sorted the whole gap report, which
reordered every manifest. Only the claims on one contested path move now,
grouped where the first of them stood, and two spellings of a path are
one group where the filesystem folds case (RetroBat's 64DD_IPL_DEV.bin).
An entry without a destination (EmuDeck's system:md5 whitelist) no
longer counts as a pack path in verify, and step 5 prints one status for
counts and paths together. A full offline run compared all 12 archives
and 930 emulator packs path by path, every one equal.
Step 5 compared (ok, total) and the core file count. RetroArch, Lakka
and RetroPie read 526/526 on both sides while verify credited four paths
below SGB1.sfc and SGB2.sfc that the pack never writes: a declared file
blocks them as a directory. verify now places the platform files in the
builder's order with the same path rules, and a user_provided or
external declaration keeps its slot on both sides, so no core file takes
it in the report only.
verify --destinations writes the paths each pack holds by the report,
and step 5 compares them with the archive members (notes and data tree
members set aside). Every emulator profile, in each build it has, is
built in memory (PackRecord, nothing read or written) and compared with
verify --emulator path by path. Cost measured here: about 1 s per
platform archive and 11 s for the 930 emulator packs.
