Summary

  • Adds an optional path field on TestRunModel, an alternative to test_name for referencing a test in a scenario file, resolved relative to the scenario file's own directory (confirmed shape in Support relative-path test references and lazy-load only referenced test/hook tomls #985).
  • test_name and path are mutually exclusive, same rules test_name already has with test_template_name.
  • TestScenarioParser._prepare_tdef gets a new branch: when path is set, it loads that toml file directly instead of doing a name lookup against test_mapping, then merges scenario-level overrides the same way the test_name branch already does.
  • Raises a clear TestScenarioParsingError if the resolved path does not exist.
  • This is PR1 of the two-PR plan discussed in Support relative-path test references and lazy-load only referenced test/hook tomls #985. PR2 (skip eager glob-and-parse of --tests-dir/hooks when a scenario's tests are all path-referenced) depends on this one and is not included here, keeping this PR small and reviewable on its own.
  • Fully backward compatible: test_name and fully-inline (test_template_name + name + description) scenarios are unaffected.

Test Plan

7 new tests in tests/test_test_scenario.py (TestPathReference), covering: path/test_name mutual exclusion, path/test_template_name mutual exclusion, relative-path resolution against the scenario file's directory, scenario-level override merging over the referenced file, a missing-file error, and a full scenario TOML parsed end to end with a path reference.

Also updated the wording of two pre-existing validation error messages (in models/scenario.py) that referenced only test_name, so they stay accurate now that path is a second way to satisfy the same requirement. Updated the two existing tests in tests/test_test_scenario.py that asserted on the old wording.

Additional Notes

Design confirmed in #985 before writing any code, per CONTRIBUTING.md's "communicate with the main developers before starting work." Not touching the eager-loading behavior itself, sweeping, or anything unrelated, this PR is purely additive.

Add an optional 'path' field on TestRunModel, mutually exclusive with
'test_name', resolved relative to the scenario file's own directory.
When set, _prepare_tdef loads that file directly instead of doing a
name lookup against test_mapping, with the same scenario-level
override merging test_name already supports.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

TestRunModel now accepts a scenario-relative TOML path as an alternative test reference. The parser resolves the path, loads the definition, applies scenario overrides, and reports missing files. Tests cover validation, loading, merging, and end-to-end parsing.

Changes

Scenario test path references

Layer / File(s) Summary
Test reference contract
src/cloudai/models/scenario.py, tests/test_test_scenario.py
TestRunModel adds the optional path field. Validation prevents conflicting references and updates inline-definition and template-name rules. Tests cover the updated validation behavior.
Path loading and validation
src/cloudai/test_scenario_parser.py, tests/test_test_scenario.py
TestScenarioParser resolves and loads scenario-relative test TOML files, merges overrides, and raises TestScenarioParsingError for missing files. Tests cover path resolution, merging, errors, logging, and full scenario parsing.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 74b74

The PR adds path-based scenario references, but an empty test_name can still pass model validation and later fail with an unclear parsing error. This bounded correctness issue should be fixed before merging; the other noted items require only owner follow-up.

Field(min_length=1) rejects path="" at validation time instead of
letting it through as a truthy-looking value that would otherwise
resolve to the scenario file's own directory.

Exercise the public scenario parser in the end-to-end test.

At Lines 1027-1030, the test manually validates the TOML and calls private _prepare_tdef(). This verifies the helper and the model, but not the parser's public scenario-loading flow. If this test must provide end-to-end coverage, use the public parser entry point and assert the resulting scenario test. Otherwise, rename the test to indicate helper-level coverage.

Reject an empty test_template_name with a path.

if self.test_template_name treats "" as unset. Therefore, TestRunModel(id="1", path="nccl.toml", test_template_name="") passes validation, although path and test_template_name are mutually exclusive. tdef_model_dump() retains the empty string, so _prepare_tdef() can merge it over the referenced definition. Use an is not None check and add a regression test.

-            if self.test_template_name:
+            if self.test_template_name is not None:

@podkidyshev the empty-path issue from CodeRabbit is resolved, min_length=1 pushed and confirmed rejecting "" while still allowing None/real paths (see reply on the review thread above), plus a regression test. All CI green on the latest commit. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like changed.

- 'test_template_name' must not be set if 'test_name' or 'path' is
  set now checks `is not None` instead of truthiness, so an explicit
  empty string no longer slips past the mutual-exclusion check.
- test_empty_path_is_rejected and the new empty-test_template_name
  test pass their match pattern directly to pytest.raises instead of
  a separate exc_info.match() call.
- test_full_scenario_toml_with_path_reference now calls the public
  TestScenarioParser.parse() instead of the private _prepare_tdef(),
  exercising the actual end-to-end scenario-parsing path.

Comment thread src/cloudai/test_scenario_parser.py Outdated
Comment thread src/cloudai/models/scenario.py
The top-level Parser.parse() catches TestScenarioParsingError and
exits without printing the exception itself, relying on the raiser
having already called logging.error(). The path-reference branch in
_prepare_tdef skipped that, so a missing referenced file failed with
no error message at all in run/dry-run, just an immediate silent
exit. Every other raise of this exception in the file already follows
the log-then-raise pattern; this one now matches.

Also: removed a redundant inline comment on the elif branch, and
applied ruff's PLR5501 suggestion (elif instead of nested else/if) in
the validator, which CodeRabbit flagged in a review that failed to
post due to a transient GitHub outage on their end.

140-145: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Reject empty test_name values during model validation.

has_base treats test_name="" as a valid reference. TestScenarioParser._prepare_tdef still uses a truthiness check, so the empty value skips every branch and reaches the raw fallback ValueError. Add min_length=1 to test_name and add a regression test.
