feat(lint): enforce ARCH-025 loop shapes with no-loop-test-cases - #634
Conversation
`test-cases/no-loop-test-cases` is an oxlint JS plugin enabled as an error for `tests/**/*.test.ts`. It reports a `test()`/`it()`/`describe()` registered inside a loop or iteration callback, an `expect()` looped over rows that exist at registration time (a non-empty array literal or a `const` array visible from the test, `as const`/`satisfies` unwrapped), and a loop that carries a test's only `expect()` calls. A runtime-derived loop guarded by an assertion on the collection is not reported. Six existing loops become `test.each` tables, 1:1. ARCH-025 describes the rule as its automated enforcement and keeps boolean collapse as the remaining unenforced pattern. Signed-off-by: Rhuan Barreto <rhuan@barreto.work>

@.archgate/adrs/ARCH-025-idiomatic-bun-test-parametrization-and-matchers.md:
- Line 55: Update the `.some(predicate)`/`.every(predicate)` guidance to
recommend `.findIndex(predicate)` with `.toBeGreaterThanOrEqual(0)` for general
existence checks, replacing `.find(predicate)` with `.toBeDefined()` or
`.toBeUndefined()` so matching `undefined` values are handled unambiguously.
- Line 56: Update the matcher guidance in the ADR to limit
`expect(x).toBeInstanceOf(Array)` to values guaranteed to be same-realm arrays;
retain `Array.isArray(x)` when the tested contract includes cross-realm arrays.
Review comments at @.claude/agent-memory/archgate-developer/MEMORY.md:
- Line 26: Update the hook-created worktree guidance in MEMORY.md to run the git
diff check before committing, while HEAD still points to the hook-created
branch. Then retain the existing commit and rebase steps so the check identifies
pre-existing branch changes.
Review comments at @tests/formats/adr-fuzz.test.ts:
- Around line 72-83: Restructure the parseFrontmatter test to capture the parser
result or thrown value, then assert the outcome after the try/catch so assertion
failures cannot be mistaken for parser errors. Apply the same structure to
analogous cases, using ReturnType<typeof parseAdr> for the delimiter case.

289-289: Guarded detection counts every expect outside a loop, including expects in nested helper callbacks.
finishTestskips the only-assertions report when anyExpectSitehasloops.length === 0. A nested non-loop function, such asconst check = (x) => expect(x)...or arun(items, cb)callback, also records an expect with no loops. Assume a test body holdsresults.forEach(check)and a helper with thatexpect. The rule treats the helper'sexpectas a guard, but thatexpectonly runs inside the loop. The result is a false negative, not a crash. Bodies of this kind are uncommon, so I am not raising this as a defect.

checkpreemption claim is supported.checkawaitsloadRuleAdrs()before callingrunChecks().loadRuleAdrs()invokesgenerateRulesDts()before rule loading. A generation error therefore reaches the command error boundary before any rule runs. No narrowing is required.
An `attempt()` helper captures either the parser result or the thrown value, and each fuzz table asserts on the matching branch, so an assertion failure is never swallowed by the catch that checks the parser error. The memory note on hook-created worktrees orders the foreign-file check before the commit it protects. Signed-off-by: Rhuan Barreto <rhuan@barreto.work>

# archgate ## [0.60.0](v0.59.0...v0.60.0) (2026-10-12) ### Features * **lint:** enforce ARCH-025 loop shapes with no-loop-test-cases ([#634](#634)) ([7bd679b](7bd679b)), closes [#630](#630) ### Bug Fixes * **check:** run ADRs one after another so a rule's timeout and duration measure its own work ([#632](#632)) ([f10ed89](f10ed89)), closes [#630](#630) --- This PR was generated with [simple-release](https://github.com/TrigenSoftware/simple-release). <details> <summary>📄 Cheatsheet</summary> <br> You can configure the bot's behavior through a pull request comment using the `!simple-release/set-options` command. ### Command Format ````md !simple-release/set-options ```json { "bump": {} } ``` ```` ### Useful Parameters The options shape the pull request generation, so the `bump` ones matter here. Release-time options like `publish` belong in the config file. | Parameter | Type | Description | |-----------|------|-------------| | `version` | `string` | Force set specific version | | `as` | `'major' \| 'minor' \| 'patch' \| 'prerelease'` | Release type. `prerelease` keeps the type derived from the commits and makes the version a prerelease | | `prerelease` | `string` | Pre-release identifier (e.g., "alpha", "beta") | | `firstRelease` | `boolean` | Whether this is the first release | | `skip` | `boolean` | Skip version bump | | `byProject` | `Record<string, object>` | Per-project bump options for monorepos | ### Usage Examples #### Force specific version ````md !simple-release/set-options ```json { "bump": { "version": "2.0.0" } } ``` ```` #### Force major bump ````md !simple-release/set-options ```json { "bump": { "as": "major" } } ``` ```` #### Create alpha pre-release ````md !simple-release/set-options ```json { "bump": { "prerelease": "alpha" } } ``` ```` ### Custom Changelog Preamble You can add custom markdown to the top of the changelog (right after the version header) using the `!simple-release/set-preamble` command. The markdown after the command line becomes the preamble. Start its headings at `###` — the level of the generated changelog sections like `### Features`. ```md !simple-release/set-preamble ### What's new? - The website was completely redesigned - The new API gives you awesome possibilities ``` In a monorepo, pass the full package name after the command to target a single package's changelog. Wrap the name in backticks so GitHub keeps it as text instead of a mention: ```md !simple-release/set-preamble `@your-org/core` ### Core changes - New plugin system ``` Use one comment per package, plus one without a name for the whole release. ### Access Restrictions The commands can only be used by users with permissions: - repository owner - organization member - collaborator ### Notes - The last comment with `!simple-release/set-options` command takes priority - The last `!simple-release/set-preamble` comment per package takes priority - JSON must be valid, otherwise the `set-options` command will be ignored - Parameters apply only to the current release execution - The commands can be updated by editing the comment or adding a new one </details> <!-- Please do not edit this comment. simple-release-pull-request: true simple-release-branch-from: release simple-release-branch-to: main --> Signed-off-by: github-actions[bot] <github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: github-actions[bot] <github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
Why
ARCH-025 forbids loops that stand in for
test.each(), and names an oxlint plugin as its enforcement layer while marking it unimplemented. Reviewers have been the only check; the fix for #630 shipped one such loop that a reviewer had to catch by hand. This adds the rule.The rule:
test-cases/no-loop-test-caseslint/no-loop-test-cases.ts, registered in.oxlintrc.jsonand enabled as an error fortests/**/*.test.ts. It follows theno-lowered-test-timeoutpattern (aProgramvisitor with an explicit walk context, so it works on both the oxlint AST and meriyah's in the unit harness). Three shapes, each message ending in(ARCH-025):test()/it()/describe()(any chain, outermost call only) lexically insidefor/for...in/for...of/while/do...whileor an iteration callback (.forEach,.map,.flatMap,.filter,.some,.every). Only genuine bun:test chains count (test.skip,test.each(rows)(...),describe.only), so a loop variable nameditortestis not a registration. Nested registrations under a reported one are not re-reported.expect()over rows that exist at registration time — afor...ofor iteration callback over a non-empty array literal, or aconst NAME = [...]binding visible from the test (module,describe, or test scope;as const/satisfiesunwrapped). Reported once per loop;test.each(rows)always applies here.expect()calls — an empty collection would assert nothing. Reported once per loop.Not reported: a runtime-derived loop of per-item
expect()s with an assertion on the collection outside the loop (the sanctioned guarded shape, includingPromise.all(items.map(...))); loops inside hooks ordescribebodies; an emptyconst found = []accumulator is runtime-derived, not static rows.The plugin is named
test-casesbecause oxlint refuses a second plugin file namedbun-test("Plugin name 'bun-test' is already registered").What it caught
Six existing loops, converted 1:1 (every per-iteration assertion still runs per case):
tests/formats/adr-fuzz.test.ts— five shape-2 loops over localconstinput arrays →test.each([...])("… (%j)").tests/engine/check-case.test.ts— one shape-3 loop overschemeKeys(cases)→test.each(schemeKeys(cases))("… (%s)").Fire-tested from the CLI with a throwaway file holding one instance of each shape: three findings naming the rule, then a clean run after deleting it.
ADR
ARCH-025: Compliance → Automated Enforcement describes the rule and its three shapes; the Don'ts align with the Decision (static rows →
test.each; a loop never carries a test's onlyexpect(); a guarded runtime-derived loop is allowed); the remaining risk and the unenforced pattern are the boolean-collapse Don'ts (no-boolean-collapseis the follow-up).rules: falsestays — no companion.rules.ts.Tests
tests/lint/no-loop-test-cases.test.ts— 31 cases through the same parse-and-visit harness the other plugin tests use.
