# ADR-028: Tested documentation examples

## Context

Pasted Python fences in generated documentation can silently drift from the
package API: neither the test suite nor the type-checker and lint gates execute
them. The template's high coverage threshold and broad static-analysis matrix
otherwise make that inconsistency particularly easy to miss.

## Decision

Generated projects keep complete Python examples in `docs/examples/`. Sphinx
pages render these files with `literalinclude`, so published code is the exact
source that the regular pytest suite imports and, when appropriate, calls.

`docs/examples/` is explicitly included in Ruff, mypy, basedpyright, ty,
pyrefly, zuban, and pylint scope. It is not part of the package or coverage
source set: examples document the package rather than constitute product code.

The Sphinx `doctest` extension is enabled, with a `docs-doctest` tox environment
included in the default CI run for inline `>>>` snippets that cannot use
`literalinclude`.

## Consequences

Documentation code now fails the same local and CI checks as a stale import in
the application. Examples remain close to the docs and out of built wheels;
users who need distributable demonstrations can use the independent
`include_examples` scaffold option.

Gate the version lookup example on include_docs.

When include_docs=False, the template renders docs/version_lookup.py. The current test does not detect this file.

  • Use template/docs/examples/{% if include_docs %}version_lookup.py{% endif %}.jinja.
  • Assert that root / "docs" / "version_lookup.py" does not exist.
📍 Affects 2 files
  • template/docs/{% if include_docs %}examples{% endif %}/version_lookup.py.jinja#L1-L14 (this comment)

P2 Badge Include documentation examples in the source distribution

When include_docs=true, an unpacked sdist cannot run its shipped test suite: [tool.hatch.build.targets.sdist] includes /tests but not /docs, so this test finds no files under docs/examples and always fails (and the behavior test would likewise try to load a missing file). Include docs/examples in the sdist or avoid shipping a test whose required inputs are excluded.
