Standardizes test suite to follow AAA (Arrange-Act-Assert) pattern with explicit comment separators and adopts TestMethod_Scenario_ExpectedBehavior naming convention for all test methods.

Changes

Test naming refactored - 11 test methods renamed:

  • TestGetOs()GetOs_WhenCalled_ReturnsValidOsIdentifier()
  • TestExitCodes()Main_WithShellExitCode_ReturnsMatchingExitCode()
  • TestArgumentPassing()Main_WithShellArguments_PassesArgumentsToProgram()
  • TestMissingConfigFile()Main_WhenConfigFileMissing_ReturnsErrorWithMessage()
  • TestUnsupportedTarget()Main_WithUnsupportedTarget_ReturnsErrorWithMessage()
  • TestBadConfiguration()Main_WithBadConfiguration_ReturnsErrorWithMessage()

AAA pattern enforced - All tests restructured with explicit sections:

[TestMethod]
public void GetOs_WhenCalled_ReturnsValidOsIdentifier()
{
    // Arrange
    // No arrangement needed - testing static method with no input

    // Act
    var os = Program.GetOs();

    // Assert
    Assert.IsNotNull(os);
    Assert.IsTrue(os is "win" or "linux" or "freebsd" or "osx" or "unknown");
}

Standards documented in .globalconfig:

  • AAA pattern requirement with comment separation
  • TestMethod_Scenario_ExpectedBehavior naming convention
  • Updated CA1707 suppression rationale to reference naming convention
Original prompt

Please review the software for appropriate quality. Additionaly it may be appropriate to mandate the AAA (Arrange-Act-Assert) test pattern, and the TestMethod_Scenario_ExpectedBehavior naming convention.
