nextest-targeted-testing

name: nextest-targeted-testing description: Use this to run the Rust suite quickly with cargo nextest, starting targeted and widening to full CI parity.

Fast loop

• Rust-only (CI-like profile): npm run test:rust

Target a subset

NPM passes args through after --:

• Filter by substring (common case):

  • npm run test:rust -- <substring>

• If you need exact names, list tests:

  • cargo nextest list --cargo-profile ci

• If you need test binary args (e.g., --nocapture):

  • cargo nextest run --cargo-profile ci <filter> -- --nocapture

Strategy

• Start as narrow as possible (one failing test), then widen.
• After fixing the immediate issue, run the full suite:
  • npm test (Rust + UI)
  • npm run smoke

Policy

• Do NOT use cargo test in this repo.
