The CSVDialog class in model/CSVDialog.cc had minimal test coverage with only one test (ClassifyColumns). This adds 14 targeted tests to achieve 100% method coverage.

Changes

Core method tests (9 tests)

  • loadFile() / loadFileFromName() - file loading with DOS line ending handling
  • guessSpecAndLoadFile() - automatic CSV format detection
  • populateHeaders() / populateHeader() - header name extraction
  • parseLines() - delimiter modes (merged, quoted, column limits)
  • correctedUniqueValues() - unique value calculation with header correction
  • reportFromFile() - CSV report generation

Edge case tests (5 tests)

  • Invalid header row/column indices (boundary conditions)
  • Large files >100 lines (truncation behavior)
  • Empty column data (classification logic)
  • Escaped quotes in fields

All tests use temporary files with proper cleanup and follow existing test patterns. The isNumerical() helper function already had comprehensive coverage.

Test coverage: 1 → 15 tests, 10/10 public methods covered

Walkthrough

Two files modified: a robustness improvement to line-reading logic in CSVDialog.cc that prevents pushing empty lines on read failures, and comprehensive test coverage expansion for CSV parsing functionality including edge cases like DOS line endings, escaped quotes, and merged delimiters.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Change Summary
CSV Dialog Robustness Fix
model/CSVDialog.cc
Modified loadFileFromName to read lines into a local buffer first, only appending to initialLines if getline succeeds; prevents invalid empty line additions and ensures initialLines.back() is valid before DOS '\r' normalization.
CSV Parser Test Coverage
test/testCSVParser.cc
Added 15+ new test cases covering file loading, DOS line ending handling, header population, line parsing with delimiters/escapes, duplicate action handling, column classification, and CSV parser variants; replaced strict assertions with expectation-based forms to broaden test tolerances.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 2 (Simple) | ⏱️ ~12 minutes

  • model/CSVDialog.cc: Localized fix with straightforward logic change; verify the buffer move semantics and DOS '\r' handling remain correct.
  • test/testCSVParser.cc: Large test suite but follows repetitive patterns; focus on verifying test data validity and assertion conversions (ASSERT→EXPECT) are intentional.

Poem

🐰 A rabbit hops through CSV rows,
Where line-breaks dance and logic flows,
We read before we push with care,
No empty ghosts left floating there! ✨

Tip

📝 Customizable high-level summaries are now available in beta!

You can now customize how CodeRabbit generates the high-level summary in your pull requests — including its content, structure, tone, and formatting.

  • Provide your own instructions using the high_level_summary_instructions setting.
  • Format the summary however you like (bullet lists, tables, multi-section layouts, contributor stats, etc.).
  • Use high_level_summary_in_walkthrough to move the summary from the description to the walkthrough section.

Example instruction:

"Divide the high-level summary into five sections:

  1. 📝 Description — Summarize the main change in 50–60 words, explaining what was done.
  2. 📓 References — List relevant issues, discussions, documentation, or related PRs.
  3. 📦 Dependencies & Requirements — Mention any new/updated dependencies, environment variable changes, or configuration updates.
  4. 📊 Contributor Summary — Include a Markdown table showing contributions:

237-565: Excellent comprehensive test coverage for CSVDialog.

The 14 new test cases provide thorough coverage of the CSVDialog class:

  • Core functionality: file loading (including DOS line endings), automatic format detection, header population, various parsing modes (merge delimiters, max columns, escaped quotes), unique value calculation, and report generation
  • Edge cases: invalid header row/column indices, large file truncation (>100 lines), empty column data, and special character handling

All tests follow the existing fixture pattern with proper resource cleanup and align well with the PR objectives.


592-910: Good practice: ASSERT to EXPECT conversions improve test diagnostics.

Converting strict ASSERT_* macros to EXPECT_* macros allows tests to continue execution and report multiple failures per test run, rather than stopping at the first failure. This improves test diagnostics and follows Google Test best practices.

Pull Request Overview

This PR adds comprehensive test coverage for the CSVDialog class, increasing from 1 test to 15 tests and achieving 100% method coverage of the 10 public methods. The PR also includes a bug fix in model/CSVDialog.cc that prevents empty lines from being added to initialLines when getline() fails at the end of a file or on read errors.

Key changes:

  • Added 14 new focused tests covering all CSVDialog public methods including edge cases
  • Fixed a subtle bug in loadFileFromName() where failed getline() calls could add empty strings to the initial lines buffer
  • Converted many ASSERT_* macros to EXPECT_* in existing tests where appropriate (keeping ASSERT_* for structural checks that could cause undefined behavior)

Reviewed Changes

Copilot reviewed 2 out of 2 changed files in this pull request and generated 2 comments.

File Description
test/testCSVParser.cc Added 14 comprehensive tests for CSVDialog methods (file loading, parsing, header population, classification, edge cases); converted ASSERT_* to EXPECT_* for non-critical assertions in existing tests
model/CSVDialog.cc Fixed bug in loadFileFromName() to prevent adding empty lines when getline() fails by checking the return value before emplacing

[nitpick] The assertion EXPECT_TRUE(spec.dimensionNames.empty() || spec.dimensionNames.size() == 3) is too weak and doesn't properly verify the test's purpose.

Looking at the populateHeaders() implementation, when headerRow is invalid (>= parsedLines.size()), it returns early without modifying dimensionNames. Therefore, the state of dimensionNames depends on what happened before this test runs.

The test should instead verify the expected behavior more explicitly. Consider either:

  1. Initializing dimensionNames to a known state before calling populateHeaders(), then verifying it remains unchanged
  2. Checking that dimensionNames is empty (if that's the expected initial state)

As written, this assertion would pass even if populateHeaders() incorrectly modified dimensionNames to have 3 elements.
