ln-635-test-isolation-auditor

Detect flaky tests by auditing your test suite for shared mutable state, order dependencies, and improper isolation from external APIs, databases, and file systems. The audit identifies determinism issues and generates a detailed JSON report with severity findings and recommendations.

Common test anti-patterns include 'The Liar' where tests always pass without assertions, 'The Giant' for overly large tests, and 'Happy Path Only' which skips edge cases. Auditing flags these patterns, alongside testing framework behavior instead of business logic, to improve reliability.

Audit test isolation by scanning your test suite to verify proper mocking of external APIs, databases, file systems, time, random number generation, and network calls. The process checks for isolation violations and outputs a compliance report with actionable recommendations.

Your test suite may fail in CI due to determinism issues like time-dependent assertions, uncontrolled random number generation, or unmocked network interactions. Auditing the tests identifies these isolation violations and anti-patterns causing inconsistent execution results.

Yes, you can scan an existing project by running the audit against the test suite located in your current working directory. It automatically analyzes the tests for isolation violations and anti-patterns, providing a detailed JSON report of findings.
