MacroDeck.Plugin.Testing

Test host, fakes and assertions for a plugin built on MacroDeck.Plugin.Hosting - written against that package's public surface only, so it stays accurate across hosting refactors instead of drifting the way a hand-rolled double would.

What's here

  • MacroDeckTestHost - a real loopback host speaking the plugin protocol. Host a plugin in-process with HostAsync, or launch a real executable with LaunchAsync; either way you get a PluginSessionView to invoke capabilities on and assert against.
  • PluginTestHarness - drives a plugin's capability handlers directly, with no socket at all, for a fast unit test that does not need the wire.
  • MacroDeck.Plugin.Testing.Conformance - a framework-agnostic suite of protocol-level checks any plugin can be run against, from your own test project or from macrodeck-plugin test. See the conformance guide.
  • MacroDeck.Plugin.Testing.Fakes - in-memory stand-ins for the eight APIs IIntegrationContext exposes (variables, user variables, config and secrets, deck navigation, scripts, widgets, events, notifications) plus action interactions, so an integration can be exercised without a host on the other end of any of them.
  • ManualTimeProvider and Wait.UntilAsync - a clock you advance by hand and a polling helper that throws PluginTestTimeoutException instead of hanging.

Two authentication modes

PluginTestCredentials.Managed and PluginTestCredentials.SelfRegistering drive HostAsync through both registration modes a real plugin can run in, the same way MacroDeck:Plugin:* configuration and MACRO_DECK_PLUGIN_* environment variables do for a host-launched or self-registering plugin respectively - both paths derive their key names from PluginEnvironmentConfiguration.KeysByVariable rather than restating them.

What this package deliberately does not do

It has no dependency on host/src and never will - a plugin author testing against it gets exactly the fidelity a third party gets, nothing the real host does differently. It also references no test framework: Wait.UntilAsync throws rather than asserting, so it works the same under NUnit, xUnit or anything else.
