Enhanced function call validation to be much more accurate:
Improvements:
1. Function definitions must have opening brace { to avoid matching
function names in comments
2. Function calls exclude comment lines (lines starting with #)
3. Better handling of 'function name {' syntax
4. Exclude lines with { from call detection (catches definitions)
Results:
- Before: 14 false positive warnings
- After: 2 false positives (both in echo/documentation strings)
- 85% reduction in false positives
Remaining 2 warnings are in toolkit-qa-check.sh in echo statements
showing users how to use functions - not actual undefined calls.
The test now accurately identifies real function call issues while
minimizing noise from comments and documentation.
Created qa-functional-tests.sh to verify scripts actually work,
not just pass static analysis.
5 Types of Functional Tests:
1. Bash Syntax Validation
- Uses 'bash -n' to check syntax without execution
- Validates all 81 scripts
- Result: 100% pass rate
2. Function Call Validation
- Verifies called functions are defined
- Checks sourced files for function definitions
- Detects potential undefined functions
3. Dependency Validation
- Verifies all sourced files exist
- Resolves common variable patterns ($SCRIPT_DIR, $LIB_DIR, etc.)
- Distinguishes between missing files and dynamic paths
4. Library Function Unit Tests
- Tests core functions with sample data
- Validates email, IP, and formatting functions
- Expandable framework for more tests
5. Script Execution Smoke Tests
- Tries to run scripts with --help
- Ensures scripts don't crash on startup
- Validates basic executability
Usage:
bash tools/qa-functional-tests.sh
Benefits:
- Catches runtime errors static analysis misses
- Verifies dependencies are properly set up
- Tests actual function behavior
- Provides confidence code will run in production
Overall pass rate: 97% (82 passed, 2 failed, 1 skipped)
