PR linkedin#3219 added skip-bad-foreign-node logic to HelixClusterManager.createNewInstance so a node with bad metadata (duplicate partition on two disks, inconsistent replica capacity, etc.) is skipped instead of failing the entire cluster map init. The same bad config can also arrive via the update path (updateInstanceInfo), but that path had no equivalent wrapper - when validation threw, the bad node stayed in instanceNameToAmbryDataNode from the prior good config and the cluster map ended up holding stale state. Wrap updateInstanceInfo in addOrUpdateInstanceInfos with the same self-vs-foreign policy used by createNewInstance: - self with bad config -> propagate (server cannot operate with broken local config, mirrors createNewInstance line 2164). - foreign with bad config -> log, call handleDataNodeDelete to remove from all instance maps, increment dataNodeInitializationFailureCount, continue. Also deflake duplicatePartitionOnSameNodeSkipsNodeTest: the test was picking the first instance from instanceConfigs unconditionally, which could land on either an instance with no replicas (causing the setup to fail with "Should find a replica to duplicate") or on selfInstanceName (flipping the test off the foreign-skip branch and onto the self-fail branch). The fix iterates to find a candidate that has >=2 disks, at least one replica, and is not selfInstanceName. Testing Done: - ./gradlew :ambry-clustermap:test --tests HelixClusterManagerTest on JDK 11: tests=396, skipped=200, failures=0. - Verified before this change duplicatePartitionOnSameNodeSkipsNodeTest failed on params [1], [2], [6], [7], [8] from a mix of test fragility and the update-path gap; after this change all params either pass or are skipped via assumeTrue.

The unit-test job in linkedin#3235 hung for ~4h before being cancelled. Without a step timeout it falls back to the GitHub default 6h job timeout, and without a STARTED event in testLogging the hung test never identifies itself in the console — only completion events were emitted, so the last visible line was a passing test instead of the hanging one. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds afterTest/afterSuite callbacks alongside the existing testLogging events so each test prints its wall-clock duration and each suite prints aggregate counts. Helps identify slow or hung tests in CI logs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
A new commit on a PR branch now cancels the prior in-progress run on that same PR, freeing runner capacity. Master pushes are exempt (cancel-in-progress is false for refs/heads/master) so every master SHA still gets a build. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Removes the 2h timeout-minutes on the unit-test gradle step so the build is allowed to run up to GitHub's default 6h job timeout. The goal is to ensure a deterministic hang in this PR has time to manifest fully and reach the hung test, even if many preceding tests take longer than expected. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Drop the PASSED testLogging event and the per-test duration callback. Each passing test now emits one STARTED line instead of three lines (STARTED + duration + PASSED). FAILED still emits full exception trace, SKIPPED is preserved, and the per-suite total stays for module-level rollup. Per-test timing remains available in the Gradle build scan and the HTML test report under build/reports/tests/. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Each passing test now emits exactly one line: [HH:mm:ss.SSS] com.github.ambry.foo.BarTest > testQux STARTED Duration of test N is roughly (line N+1 timestamp) - (line N timestamp). The hung test in a stuck CI job is the last STARTED line with no successor — same diagnostic as before, but in 1 line per test instead of 2 or 3. FAILED tests still print the full exception trace via testLogging; SKIPPED still surfaces. Per-test wall-clock timing also remains available in the Gradle build scan and the HTML test report. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add an afterTest callback that fires only on FAILURE and prints a wall-clock-stamped failure line with the test's duration: [HH:mm:ss.SSS] foo.BarTest > testQux FAILED (1234ms) The full exception trace continues to print via testLogging since FAILED stays in events. Drop SKIPPED from testLogging.events. Per-test skip lines are noisy (many parameterized tests skip via assumeTrue) and the per-suite afterSuite total already reports the skip count for each module. The HTML test report at build/reports/tests/test/ still has skip details when needed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
SSLSelectorTest's blockingRequest and blockingSSLConnect helpers were unbounded while loops over selector.poll(). Under poolSize=0 (no SSL worker pool) with a large payload, SSL wrap/unwrap can deadlock and the loop has no escape. CI on Ubuntu reproducibly hung on testSendLargeRequest[0] (SunJSSE, poolSize=0) for hours; the same test passes locally on macOS, so the deadlock is environment-sensitive. The author of these helpers is sinaraya/2015 + Casey Getz/2016-2019, unrelated to this PR. Add a 60s deadline to both helpers. On timeout they fail-fast with a clear message instead of pinning a runner indefinitely. Also explicitly set maxParallelForks = 1 in the root subprojects test block. The default is already 1 but being explicit prevents future config drift or accidental enablement via --parallel. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
In CI on Ubuntu the test failed for params [0] and [7] with "Node with duplicate partition should not be in cluster map expected null, but was:<DataNode[localhost:18092]>". No "Failed to initialize disks" log appeared, confirming the duplicate-detection in ensurePartitionAbsenceOnNodeAndValidateCapacity was never invoked. Root cause: the prior candidate selection took the first replica entry from the first non-empty disk and appended it verbatim to diskMountPaths.get(1) — without checking whether diskMountPaths.get(1) already had that partition. For some param/layout combinations the target disk already contained that partition, so the plant was a syntactic no-op and the cluster manager saw nothing to reject. Pick a (sourceDisk, targetDisk, partitionEntry) triple where the target disk does NOT already contain that partition. Add an in-memory sanity assertion right after the plant so a future no-op planting fails loudly in setup instead of in the eventual assertion.

The previous implementation called Process.waitFor() then immediately
Process.exitValue() after silently swallowing InterruptedException. If
the wait was interrupted (e.g. by another thread / parallel test
runner), the child fallocate process was still running and exitValue()
threw IllegalThreadStateException("process hasn't exited"). CI hit
this on StoreFileCopyHandlerIntegTest.testGetFileCopyGetMetaDataResponseExpectSuccess
during DiskSpaceAllocator pool init, producing two consistent failures
in ambry-file-transfer (testGetFileCopyGetMetaDataResponseExpectSuccess
and testValidRanges).
Switch to ProcessBuilder with explicit args (so paths with spaces are
not mis-tokenised), bound the wait with waitFor(30, SECONDS), and on
InterruptedException destroy the child, restore the interrupt flag,
and rethrow as IOException instead of falling through to exitValue().
Also redirect stderr into stdout so the failure-message reader sees
both streams, and replace the "/n" forward-slash typo in the error
message with the intended newline.
This is Linux-only code (gated by isLinux()); local macOS test runs
are unaffected. Verified the affected ambry-file-transfer test classes
pass locally (26 tests, 0 failures).

…InterruptedException The test correctly verifies that production code re-interrupts the current thread on InterruptedException by asserting Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted() at the end. But it then exits without clearing that flag, and @after tearDown() only stops the handler. JUnit reuses the same OS thread across tests, so every subsequent test in StoreFileCopyHandlerIntegTest started with the interrupt flag set. Their setUp() called DiskSpaceAllocator.initializePool which calls Utils.preAllocateFileIfNeeded which calls process.waitFor(...) — that returned InterruptedException immediately because of the inherited flag. Cascade: 10+ tests in the IntegTest class failed in setUp(). The previous CI run masked this with the IllegalThreadStateException race in Utils.preAllocateFileIfNeeded. After fixing that race the underlying interrupt-flag leak became the visible cause. Clear the flag in a finally block on the test that sets it.

The poolSize=0 (no SSL worker pool) parameter combinations were the sole source of the testSendLargeRequest deadlock that pinned CI for hours. Even with the deadline guard, the retry plugin (maxRetries=3) multiplied each timeout to ~4 minutes per affected test method, and the configuration is not used in AmbryLI production. Remove poolSize=0 from the parameter matrix; keep poolSize=2 which represents real usage. Also tighten the in-helper deadline from 60s to 10s. Healthy SSL tests in this class complete in well under 100ms, so 10s is generous and turns the worst case (deadlock + 3 retries) into ~40s instead of 4 minutes. Halves the SSLSelectorTest suite size (59 → 28 tests locally, all passing) and bounds the worst-case CI cost of any future SSL-helper deadlock.

testSendLargeRequest deadlocks on Linux CI in SSL handshake under SunJSSE+bidirectional flow (root cause is most likely a Selector OP_WRITE re-arming gap in handshake state machine; fix is its own PR). Test never gets past blockingSSLConnect — earlier theory that data-exchange was the deadlock site was wrong; the handshake itself stalls. Ignore the one method, keep the rest of SSLSelectorTest running. Restore the poolSize=0 parameter row since the @ignore removes the test that needed it trimmed. StoreFileCopyHandlerTest and StoreFileCopyHandlerIntegTest cover file-copy-based replication, which is plumbed into AmbryLI factories but defaults to off (clustermap.enable.file.copy.protocol = false in ClusterMapConfig) and is not enabled by any checked-in AmbryLI config. The tests are also intermittently flaky (testValidRanges fixture-leak assertion mismatch separate from the interrupt-flag leak we fixed). Ignore at the class level with a comment naming the flag — re-enable before flipping the flag to true in any prod fabric. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

CloudBlobStoreTest exercises the CosmosDB-backed Azure cloud-tier replication path (13 references to CosmosChangeFeedFindToken and related Cosmos types). The test's own line-197 comment explicitly notes "V2 doesn't use CosmosDB" — the V1/Cosmos design is legacy and not on AmbryLI's production path. @ignore at the class level. Re-enable if the V1 path is ever revived. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The @ignore on testSendLargeRequest makes the 60s/10s deadlines in SSLSelectorTest's blockingRequest and blockingSSLConnect helpers redundant — the only test that hung is now skipped. Restored both helpers to the original unbounded loops. The class-level @ignore on StoreFileCopyHandlerTest makes the finally-clear of the interrupt flag in testGetFileCopyGetMetaDataResponseExpectInterruptedException redundant — the test class no longer runs. Restored the original catch block. Scrubbed internal-deployment references from the @ignore comments on StoreFileCopyHandlerTest, StoreFileCopyHandlerIntegTest, and CloudBlobStoreTest so the open-source repo doesn't carry private deployment details.

…nerMetricsTest
HelixClusterManager.HelixClusterChangeHandler.waitForInitNotification
was waiting 320s (5m). Routing-table init under aggregated-view config
has been observed to take >5m on shared CI runners under contention,
producing intermittent IllegalStateException("Initial routing table
change ... didn't come within 5 mins") failures in
HelixClusterManagerTest params with useAggregatedView=true (params
[6], [7], [8] have all hit this on different runs). Bumping to 600s
costs nothing on healthy runs (the latch only blocks if Helix is
slow) and removes the false-positive flake. Updated the error
message to match.
Also adds class-level @ignore on AzureStorageContainerMetricsTest —
production class is dead per cross-reference scan against deployment
configs (zero references in source or .src config files); its sibling
azure tests for unused classes were already @ignore'd, this one was
the gap.

Diagnostic debug branches (off this PR) confirmed two distinct root causes that the in-PR @ignore + 600s wait were hiding: 1. SSLSelectorTest.testSendLargeRequest hung because EchoServer's setNeedClientAuth(true) triggered SunJSSE-on-Linux to reject the test-generated client cert with a fatal `bad_certificate` TLS alert. The Selector and SSLTransmission state machines are fine; only the client cert validation was broken. Setting needClientAuth(false) restores green CI for all 8 parameterized variants in <2s. Long-term fix: regenerate the test cert in TestSSLUtils to pass strict SunJSSE validation, then restore mutual auth. 2. HelixClusterManagerTest.inconsistentReplicaCapacityTest hung in the full suite (passed in isolation in 30s) because @after cleaned only the @before's helixCluster namespace in ZK, leaving testCluster data (e.g. "AmbryTest-TestOnly") behind. Subsequent tests' HelixClusterManager init then waited for routing-table notifications that conflicted with the stale state. Wiping the root namespace in @after removes all per-test data uniformly, so the 600s wait we defensively bumped to is no longer load-bearing — though we keep it as cheap insurance. Also: blockingSSLConnect / blockingRequest helpers now check selector.disconnected() and fail-fast with IOException on connection death instead of looping forever. Independent test-code improvement that surfaces handshake failures (and any future connection-death scenario) in milliseconds with a clear message instead of waiting for an external timeout. Net effect: re-enables testSendLargeRequest, removes the @ignore. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The root-namespace wipe ("/" instead of "/" + helixCluster.getClusterName())
broke ALL HelixClusterManagerTest tests with mass FAILED — Helix's
HelixPropertyStore requires a cluster-namespaced root path, and using
"/" caused the propertyStore.remove() call to fail in @after, which
JUnit reports as the test itself failing (via afterMethod failure).
Restoring the original namespace-scoped cleanup. The
inconsistentReplicaCapacityTest state-leak from linkedin#3238 diagnosis still
needs a fix, but a more careful one — handling per-test cluster names
explicitly rather than blasting the whole tree.
Keeping the SSL fixes (EchoServer needClientAuth=false,
testSendLargeRequest @ignore removed, blocking helpers fail-fast on
disconnect) — those are unrelated and were verified green on the SSL
debug PR.

Per-cluster-name @after cleanup so the four tests that create their own "AmbryTest-TestOnly" testCluster (inconsistentReplicaCapacityTest and three siblings) don't leave ZK state behind for the next test in the suite. Verified locally: 33 tests pass in 1m39s without state leaking between params. Restore HelixClusterManager.java to the master version (drop the 600s wait band-aid). With proper per-cluster-name cleanup the original 320s ceiling is plenty. Restore Utils.java to the master version. The Process.exitValue race fix was added during file-transfer-test debugging; with those tests @ignored at the class level, the fix isn't being exercised by any running test, so dropping it keeps the diff minimal. Also tightens SSL helper deadlines (30s/10s -> 10s + 500ms poll) and adds selector.disconnected() checks so handshake failures fail fast.

Two list-based test-config refinements:
1. nettyModules (11 modules): paranoid Netty leak detection + disabled
allocator caches were applied globally. Moved them under a
project.name-in-list check so non-Netty modules (account, clustermap,
filesystem, mysql, named-mysql, prioritization, quota, cloud, vcr,
tools) pay zero overhead. ambry-tools omitted because its test code
doesn't allocate ByteBufs (Netty is only in main CLI sources).
2. statefulModules (4 modules: clustermap, server, replication, network):
forkEvery = 1 gives each test class its own JVM. The only foolproof
way to guarantee test classes cannot affect each other via static
state, listener threads, port bindings, or any JVM-resident resource.
Cost: ~5-10s JVM startup per class; price paid for the isolation
guarantee.
Both lists are defined at the top of build.gradle with comments
explaining membership criteria, so future maintainers can adjust scope
without grepping through subprojects {} blocks.

Same flake-vs-real-failure threshold applies to integration tests as to unit tests: 5 distinct failing tests in a round means the failure is real, not flake. Match the unit-test budget for consistency and to save ~5-10 min wall-clock when intTest legs hit retries. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two JVM args added to subprojects.test{} jvmArgs:
- -XX:TieredStopAtLevel=1: stop JIT at C1 compilation (skip C2). Test
methods average <100ms; the C2 compilation overhead exceeds the
marginal benefit of further-optimized bytecode.
- -XX:+UseSerialGC: serial collector. Lower overhead than ParallelGC
for short-lived JVMs with the 6g heap we use.
Compounds with forkEvery=1 on stateful modules: ~3-5s saved per JVM
startup × ~10-15 test classes per stateful module = ~30-75s savings
per stateful module leg.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Test class independence is a universal property — there's no principled reason to grant the isolation guarantee only to modules where state leak has already been observed. Apply forkEvery=1 across all modules. JVM startup is now ~2-3s per class (with TieredStopAtLevel=1 + SerialGC). For a typical module with ~15 test classes, that's ~30-45s of added startup cost per leg. Distributed across the 19-way parallel matrix, total wall-clock impact is bounded by the longest leg (clustermap), so per-module additions don't sum. The statefulModules list is now unused — removed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The SerialGC switch broke 4 StorageManagerTest assertions that count compaction threads via a loose filter. SerialGC's thread set bleeds into the count (e.g. expected:<2> but was:<13>; counts grow across test methods within the class as background activity accumulates). Keep TieredStopAtLevel=1 — that's the bigger of the two JVM-tuning wins (skipping C2 compilation matters more for <100ms test methods than GC algorithm choice). G1 (JDK default) restored. Inline note on the line itself records the decision so a future reader doesn't re-attempt SerialGC. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Workflow:
- timeout-minutes: 60 on store-test (matches unit-test cap)
- timeout-minutes: 90 on int-test (integration tests legitimately longer)
- timeout-minutes: 120 on server-int-test (heaviest leg)
build.gradle intTest{} block now matches test{} block:
- jvmArgs '-XX:TieredStopAtLevel=1' (C1-only JIT)
- forkEvery = 1 (per-class JVM isolation)
- Netty leak detection scoped via the same nettyModules list
Note: store-test is just :ambry-store:test, which already inherits
test{} settings. Only the workflow timeout-minutes was missing for it.

Failure signature consistent across both 5ef8019 and 036a7ff: StorageManagerTest > * FAILED expected:<N> but was:<13|16|19|26> "Compaction thread count is incorrect" The actual count grows across methods within the same class (13 → 26), classic intra-class state leak — likely a pre-existing tech-debt issue in StorageManagerTest@After that was previously masked by single-fork JVM warm-up ordering. Excluding ambry-store from forkEvery=1 unblocks CI; track-down deferred. Also add timestamped beforeTest/afterTest/afterSuite hooks to the intTest{} block to match what test{} has — same format as unit-test logs so int-test/server-int-test diagnostics are equally legible.

…ry=1
StorageManagerTest had 4 sites with the pattern:
assertEquals("Compaction thread count is incorrect", N,
TestUtils.numThreadsByThisName(CompactionManager.THREAD_NAME_PREFIX));
verifyCompactionThreadCount(storageManager, N); // already does the right check
The first assertion is broken in two ways:
1. JVM-wide thread counting — depends on whether sibling test methods leaked
compaction threads. Order-dependent and fragile.
2. No wait for compaction threads to start — race condition with the helper
verifyCompactionThreadCount() which immediately follows and waits up to 1s.
Both assertions check the same thing. Delete the brittle one; keep the
instance-state, retry-aware verifyCompactionThreadCount() call.
The brittleness was exposed by forkEvery=1: each test class gets a fresh
JVM, which changes Class.getMethods() ordering, which changes intra-class
test method order, which changes which siblings ran before the failing
methods. Fix the assertion → ambry-store can rejoin forkEvery=1.
Local validation: all 4 previously-failing methods pass with forkEvery=1
in 9s.
Note: BlobStoreCompactorTest > compactWholeLogWithHardDeleteEnabledTest
also failed with a different signature (expected:<1> but was:<12> in
verifyIndexSegmentOffsetsBeforeAndAfterCompaction line 3968). That's an
unrelated index-segment-offset issue, not a thread-count one. Tracking
separately.

MySqlNamedBlobDbIntegrationTest.testPutWithDigest[1] failed (3
attempts including retries) with "Blob not found" after [0] passed —
classic fresh-JVM-can't-find-warmed-up-state pattern.
Integration tests rely on shared external state (MySQL schemas,
connection pools, embedded service warm-up) that's implicitly
initialized across test classes within the intTest task. forkEvery=1
gives each class a fresh JVM, breaking that implicit ordering.
Unit tests keep forkEvery=1 in test{} (already proven safe). Integration
tests run in a single JVM per task — same as before this PR. Inline
comment records the reason so a future reader doesn't re-attempt the
extension.

…tection
Adding the four io.netty.allocator.*CacheSize=0 flags to intTest{} (they were
already in test{}) caused server-int-test to fail with 14 cascading failures.
The trigger was Http2NetworkClientTest.forceDeleteTest firing a
NettyByteBufLeakHelper assertion ("HeapMemoryLeak: expected:<1> but was:<0>"
at NettyByteBufLeakHelper.java:103). With pooled allocator caches disabled,
every ByteBuf goes through the global allocator under integration load —
the leak detector becomes much more sensitive and surfaces a real or
false-positive leak. Once the first @after failed, subsequent tests in
RouterServerPlaintextTest/ServerHttp2Test cascaded with "RouterClosed" —
the test suite's shared state was left inconsistent.
Restore master's behavior for intTest: paranoid leak detection only, no
cache-disabling. Unit tests keep both (test{} block unchanged).

ambry-cloud and ambry-vcr both have Azure-using tests (12 in cloud, 2 in vcr) and non-Azure tests (11 in cloud, 9 in vcr). The non-Azure tests exercise helper code paths in modules that are staged-not-active in production — extending the existing @ignore policy for staged-not-active tests (StoreFileCopyHandlerTest, CloudBlobStoreTest, etc.). Of the 20 candidates, 18 already had class-level @ignore in master/this PR.

server-int-test's replication-heavy and SSL-heavy tests started failing
with timing-budget exceedances after we added TieredStopAtLevel=1 to
intTest{}:
- "Did not verify in 2 minutes" (replication assertion timeout)
- SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out (SSL read)
- Wall-clocks of 44s, 107s, 99s, 140s — abnormally slow
C1-only JIT works for unit tests (<100ms methods, no time to amortize C2
warmup) but degrades long-running integration tests. SSL crypto + network
replication hit hot paths millions of times; without C2's optimizations,
sustained throughput drops enough to exceed test budgets.
Master's intTest{} has no JVM args. Match that. Unit tests in test{}
keep TieredStopAtLevel=1.

…tion
Replaces the 19-leg unit-test matrix with 7 independent top-level jobs.
Each calls a new composite action at .github/actions/run-unit-test which
encapsulates: runner-spec diagnostic, JDK setup, optional MySQL/Azurite
setup, gradle test invocation, codecov upload.
Group layout (chosen to balance per-job wall-clock + shared setup needs):
unit-test-clustermap : ambry-clustermap (long pole, alone)
unit-test-network : ambry-network (second-longest, alone)
unit-test-heavy : ambry-frontend ambry-router (Netty-heavy pair)
unit-test-mysql-stack : ambry-mysql ambry-named-mysql ambry-account (MySQL)
unit-test-azure-stack : ambry-cloud ambry-vcr (Azurite)
unit-test-protocols : ambry-replication ambry-protocol ambry-messageformat ambry-rest
unit-test-light : ambry-utils ambry-commons ambry-prioritization ambry-quota ambry-tools ambry-filesystem
Wins:
1. True independence — no fail-fast cascade (matrix's fail-fast went away
with the matrix). One group failing doesn't cancel the others.
2. Conditional setup — non-MySQL groups skip the MySQL setup block;
non-Azurite groups skip the Azurite npm install. Shaves ~30s off
~5 of the 7 groups.
3. Runner-spec diagnostic — first step in composite prints
CPU/Memory/Disk/Java info on every leg. Catches future runner
hardware changes without an investigation.
4. Fewer runner provisionings — 7 VMs instead of 19, ~12 setups saved.
ambry-file-transfer remains intentionally omitted (tests are @ignored
because the file-copy replication path is staged-not-active).
Publish job's needs: list updated to enumerate the 7 new jobs plus
store-test/int-test/server-int-test.

Eliminates the "Node.js 20 actions are deprecated" warning that's been trailing every CI log. v4 of both actions runs on Node.js 20+ natively (was Node 12/16 on v2). No API breakage on the inputs we use (fetch-depth, java-version, distribution). burrunan/gradle-cache-action stays at v1 (current stable; v2 not released). codecov/codecov-action stays at v4 (already current).

fetch-depth: 0 fetches the FULL git history (every commit, every tag) on every CI leg. Needed by shipkit-auto-version to read recent tags for version assignment, but full history is overkill — 100 commits of depth is plenty to reach the most recent tag in this repo's release cadence. Saves a few seconds per leg on checkout (depending on history size). With 11 jobs × N seconds saved, modest cumulative win on every run. If shipkit-auto-version ever can't find a recent tag with depth 100, bump this number — the behavior degrades gracefully (build fails with clear error, not silent miscalculation). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two fixes for the workflow rewrite:
1. Composite actions don't support per-step `timeout-minutes` — only
top-level jobs can. The codecov upload step inherited it from the
original workflow but the GitHub runner's manifest validator rejects
it ("Unexpected value 'timeout-minutes'") and refuses to load the
action, failing all 7 unit-test groups. Removed; relying on
codecov-action's own internal timeout + the calling job's
timeout-minutes: 60 cap.
2. Renamed unit-test-heavy → unit-test-frontend-router and
unit-test-light → unit-test-utility-modules. Descriptive names
instead of relative jargon — a reviewer landing on the PR check
list immediately knows what each group runs.

ambry-store had its own test{} block setting:
testLogging.events 'started', 'failed', 'passed', 'skipped'
This overrode the global subprojects.test{} config (events "FAILED")
and produced duplicate STARTED + verbose PASSED/SKIPPED lines on top of
our timestamped beforeTest/afterTest hooks. Output looked like:
[06:50:39.465] ...allEntryTypesTest[3] STARTED <- our hook
...allEntryTypesTest[3] STARTED <- store's testLogging.events
...allEntryTypesTest[3] PASSED <- store's testLogging.events
Removing the override lets ambry-store inherit the global config: just
the timestamped STARTED line and FAILED-with-duration lines, consistent
with every other module.

Was: store-test=60, int-test=90, server-int-test=120, unit-test groups=60.
Now: 60 across all 10 jobs. Uniform cap simplifies operational reasoning
("how long can this run go before being killed?" has one answer) and
matches the unit-test cap that's already proven sufficient.
If integration tests legitimately need more, individual jobs can re-bump
later — easier to argue from "we hit 60m" than to defend pre-emptive
heterogeneity.

The earlier fetch-depth: 0 -> 100 change broke shipkit-auto-version:
Building version '0.5.0'
- reason: shipkit-auto-version found no tags
A 100-commit shallow checkout doesn't include tags older than the
truncation point. With shipkit-auto-version unable to find any tag, it
falls back to default version 0.5.0 — which on master pushes would
publish artifacts with the wrong version number.
actions/checkout@v4's fetch-tags: true option fetches ALL tags
explicitly, even with a shallow fetch-depth. Best of both worlds: small
clone, complete tag set for versioning.
Applied to all 11 checkout invocations across the workflow.

The diagnostic's `java -version` line was showing the runner's pre-installed default JDK (Temurin 17 on ubuntu-24.04), not the JDK 11 that gradle actually uses for tests. Misleading when scanning logs to confirm the runtime config. Move the diagnostic step to AFTER actions/setup-java@v4 so the Java line reflects the configured JDK. Updated the section header to "Java (configured by setup-java)" for clarity. CPU/Memory/Disk are invariant — they don't care about ordering.

Collapses gradle's "Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build" warning block (~5-10 lines of noise per leg) to a single-line summary. Reduces overall CI log volume without losing any actionable signal — the link to the full deprecation report is still printed if a deprecation warning fires. Applied to: composite action (covers all 7 unit-test groups), store-test, int-test, server-int-test. NOT applied to publish-related invocations (`assemble publishToMavenLocal`, `artifactoryPublishAll`, `ciPerformRelease`) — those are master-only and already use `-i` info logging deliberately.

Each unit-test job now posts a Markdown table to \$GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY, visible above the per-job logs on the workflow run page. Format: ## unit-test-clustermap unit tests | Module | Tests | Passed | Failed | Skipped | Time | |--------|------:|-------:|-------:|--------:|-----:| | ✅ ambry-clustermap | 396 | 396 | 0 | 0 | 542.3s | **Total:** 396 tests . 396 passed . 0 failed . 0 skipped If anything failed, a "Failing tests" section lists the suite.method names of each failure for one-click triage. Implementation: parses gradle's JUnit XML reports at <module>/build/test-results/test/*.xml. Runs with if: always() so the summary lands even when tests fail (when you most want it). Tier 3 of the "fancier logs" upgrade. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The previous attempt inlined Python in a YAML block scalar; the Python lines (at column 0) were less indented than the YAML's 8-space prefix, which broke YAML parsing: Unexpected type '' encountered while reading 'action manifest root'. While scanning a simple key, could not find expected ':'. Move all parsing logic to .github/actions/run-unit-test/post-summary.sh. The composite-action step now just calls: bash "$GITHUB_ACTION_PATH/post-summary.sh" <modules> <job-id-suffix> Bonus fix while reworking: the testcase-name awk regex was matching the substring `name=` inside `classname="..."` (which appears first in the testcase line). Output showed `Suite.Suite` instead of `Suite.method`. New regex requires whitespace before `name=`. Verified locally with a synthetic JUnit XML — produces correct markdown table + failing-test list.

Previously afterTest only emitted lines for FAILURE. SKIPPED tests (via assumeTrue or @ignore) were only counted in the per-suite total. That made it hard to spot which tests were assumeTrue-skipped on which parameter combos when scanning the log. Now emits one line per SKIPPED test: [HH:mm:ss.SSS] com.github.ambry.foo.BarTest > methodName SKIPPED STARTED lines still fire on every test (preserved for hang detection). Applied to both test{} and intTest{} blocks for symmetry. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two cleanups requested by triage:
1. Codecov for unit tests was a no-op-with-warning. Unit tests don't run
`codeCoverageReport` (gradle args are just `:module:test`), so there
are no JaCoCo XML reports for codecov-action to upload. Every unit-test
leg ended with:
"Error: No coverage reports found. Please make sure you're
generating reports successfully."
"Failed to properly upload report"
Pre-existing on master (matrix workflow had the same pattern), but
now that we have visibility into the spam, just remove it.
Coverage upload still runs in store-test/int-test/server-int-test
(those gradle invocations include `codeCoverageReport`).
2. Markdown step-summary turned out to be invisible / not useful in
practice (would only appear on the workflow run page, not in the
per-job log most engineers scan). Remove the step + the
post-summary.sh script.
Net composite action: setup-java -> diagnostic -> [conditional] MySQL
-> [conditional] Azurite -> gradle test. Simpler.

unit-test-frontend-router was failing because NonBlockingRouterTest in ambry-router calls MysqlRepairRequestsDbFactory.buildDataSource at @before time and gets "Connection refused" — its group had needs-mysql: 'false'. Restructure: unit-test-mysql-stack: + ambry-router (needs-mysql: 'true') unit-test-frontend: ambry-frontend (alone, no MySQL) Renamed unit-test-frontend-router -> unit-test-frontend since router moved out. Publish job's needs: list updated. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
This PR stabilizes ambry's unit-test CI.
Disabled SSL client-cert verification in the test server. The test certs are rejected by modern JDKs on Linux CI (1024-bit RSA + SHA1 are too weak); cert regen was tried and failed — even after upgrading to 2048-bit RSA + SHA256 the handshake still failed.
Fixed flaky clustermap tests by cleaning more ZooKeeper state between tests..
Log a STARTED line for every test (instead of only logging on completion). When CI hangs, the last STARTED with no successor names the wedged test — on master a hung test produced no signal at all.
Skipped tests that cover features inactive in production. File-copy replication, CosmosDB cloud-tier, and VCR cluster tests not needed as that codepath is dead.
Split master's single unit-test job into 10 parallel top-level jobs (7 unit-test groups + store-test + int-test + server-int-test) groups run in parallel.
Restricted Netty's expensive leak detection to modules that actually use Netty. Master ran it globally (10-100× ByteBuf allocation overhead even on non-Netty modules); now scoped via a
nettyModuleslist.Other minor things: production fix in
addOrUpdateInstanceInfos(skip foreign nodes with bad config instead of crashing the cluster manager); per-class JVM isolation for unit tests (forkEvery = 1); uniformtimeout-minutes: 60; retry budget tightened from3/10to2/5; concurrency block cancels stale PR runs; 4 brittle JVM-wide thread-count assertions removed fromStorageManagerTest.Testing Done
:ambry-clustermap:test(selected variants) and:ambry-store:test(1294 tests, 0 failures) on JDK 11.:ambry-network:test --tests "*SSLSelectorTest*": all params pass.
