Problem

  • test/cli/install/npmrc.test.ts ran its ~25 bun install / bun pm / bun publish spawns one after another. Each case called registry.createTestDir(), which deletes verdaccio's htpasswd file, so the cases could not run concurrently.
  • Most install cases asserted only the exit code and shared one install cache. After the first case the @needs-auth installs were cache hits: the "_auth with no value" case passed with exit 0 although the registry refuses that request.

Fix

  • Every case owns a tempDir, its own BUN_INSTALL_CACHE_DIR and its own $HOME/$XDG_CONFIG_HOME, and runs under describe.concurrent. One verdaccio user is created in beforeAll. The loadNpmrc option matrix is a test.each.
  • Installs assert the exact stdout and stderr, the tarball urls in bun.lock (which registry served each package), then the exit code. The mock registries compare the full request list with the authorization header. One negative control added (41 tests, was 40), none removed or skipped.
  • Verified: bun bd test test/cli/install/npmrc.test.ts, 7.11 to 7.31 s before, 4.32 to 4.63 s after, 8 runs, 0 failures. Passes on Windows x64 with a canary build.
  • Self-reviewed: 2 concerns survived, both about sequencing, see Notes.

Background

  • VerdaccioRegistry (test/harness.ts) forks one verdaccio per file. It serves @needs-auth/* to authenticated users only and checks its htpasswd file on every request. createTestDir() deletes that file (test: keep verdaccio users alive across createTestDir() calls #40219).
  • CI exports a per-file BUN_INSTALL_CACHE_DIR. It wins over bunfig.toml and .npmrc, so a per-case cache has to go through the environment.
  • Resolved, downloaded and extracted [N] counts 4 tasks per package on a cold cache: manifest download, manifest parse, tarball download, extract.
Notes

Self-review survivors:

Assertion changes, case by case:

  • BOM: the printed cache dir is <package dir>/hi! (basename exact, dirname compared through realpath), stderr empty. Was endsWith("hi!").
  • empty file, default registry, scoped registry, home config, two configs, package overrides home: exact stdout and stderr snapshots, bun.lock tarball urls compared with toEqual, exit code. Were exit code only. "package config overrides home config" also asserts the home registry recorded zero requests.
  • loadNpmrc cases: the whole result object with toEqual instead of one or two fields. The option matrix no longer creates directories it never read.
  • user .npmrc lookup: the Registry: line compared exactly and stderr "", plus the new failing control with the exact error: missing authentication line. Was stringContaining / not.stringContaining.
  • authentication works and the seven credential forms: exact stdout, stderr, lockfile urls and exit code from a cold cache, so verdaccio had to accept the credentials for both the manifest and the tarball. The .env cases also pin the ".env" loaded line.
  • _auth from an empty .env value: the full warning (value masked, location computed from the port length), the 401 from verdaccio, failed to resolve, exit code 1, no lockfile. Was toContain("received an empty string") with the exit code unchecked (it was 0 from the warm cache).
  • undecodable _password: full stderr snapshot plus not.toContain(secret).
  • scope hash collision: registry A received exactly one GET /@scope%2fprobe with scope A's token, registry B nothing, stderr snapshot, exit 1. Was some(path.includes("probe")).
  • --registry override: registry B received exactly GET /no-deps and the tarball GET, both without authorization, registry A nothing, stdout/stderr snapshots, lockfile url on registry B.
  • IPv6 registry: the four error: lines compared as a sorted list (the two 404 lines print in response order), exit 1.

Flake precautions: no shared $HOME, cache or verdaccio user state between cases, port: 0 everywhere, no timing waits, the only order-dependent output (two concurrent 404s) is compared sorted, and the one column that depends on the random port's digit count is computed rather than snapshotted. Ran 8 times under the debug build, plus pinned to 4 and 2 cpus, plus once with verdaccio under the ASAN build (CI=true, --timeout=270000) where old and new both take ~41 s locally because verdaccio's ASAN startup dominates.

CI durations of this file. A PR that modifies a test file runs it first in every shard (position 3), on a cold machine, so these are not comparable with main builds where it runs later:

lane main build 113531 (old file, position 4 to 62) #41916 build 112915 (old file + cases, position 3) this PR build 113558 (position 3)

darwin aarch64 0.58 s (position 62) 2.24 s 1.78 s

The spread between builds of the same file at the same position (3.15 s to 10.74 s on debian aarch64 for the old file) is larger than the change itself, so the local debug-build numbers above are the measurement to go by. The checked-in median for this file on debian x64 is 5.06 s.

…e and registry requests

Every spawned case gets its own temp dir, install cache and user config
dir, so the cases no longer share verdaccio's htpasswd resets or a warm
cache, and run under describe.concurrent. The one verdaccio user is
created in beforeAll. The loadNpmrc option matrix is a test.each and no
longer creates directories it never used.

Installs now assert the exact stdout and stderr, the tarball urls in
bun.lock (which registry served each package), and the mock registries
compare the full request list including the authorization header.

Status: ready for review. CI is green (Buildkite #113558).

Measured with bun bd test test/cli/install/npmrc.test.ts: 7.11 to 7.31 s before, 4.32 to 4.63 s after, 41 tests, 8 runs in a row with no failure, plus runs pinned to 4 and 2 cpus. The file also passes on Windows x64 with a canary build. The list of assertion changes and the CI durations per lane are in the Notes block of the PR body.

Reviewed: this PR should stay open. The one open item is ordering against #40423, which rewrites the same file and rewords two diagnostics pinned here. I left a note there and will rebase whichever way is needed.

Walkthrough

Changes

The npmrc test suite now runs in isolated temporary environments with shared recording registries. It validates configuration lookup, authentication formats, registry precedence, scoped routing, credential handling, IPv6 URLs, request details, diagnostics, output, and exit codes.

npmrc Test Coverage

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configuration and authentication coverage
test/cli/install/npmrc.test.ts
Test helpers and cases cover isolated npmrc lookup, registry precedence, environment expansion, authentication formats, missing credentials, IPv6 credential matching, and invalid _auth values.
Registry routing assertions
test/cli/install/npmrc.test.ts
A recording registry captures request paths and authorization headers. Tests verify scoped registry routing, --registry overrides, tarball sources, and credential isolation.
IPv6 and failure validation
test/cli/install/npmrc.test.ts
Bracketed IPv6 tests verify credential selection, exact requests, failure diagnostics, install output, and exit codes.

Applied the Buffer.alloc suggestion for the caret indent in 2ece7b0. The case still passes (bun bd test test/cli/install/npmrc.test.ts -t "no value").

LGTM — test-only refactor to the documented harness conventions, with every assertion tightened and none weakened.

What was reviewed:

  • Concurrency safety: single generateUser in beforeAll + per-case BUN_INSTALL_CACHE_DIR/HOME/XDG_CONFIG_HOME under the tempDir removes the shared htpasswd/cache races that would otherwise break describe.concurrent.
  • Assertion strength: exit-code-only Bun.$ .throws(true) cases now pin exact stdout/stderr snapshots, lockfile tarball URLs, and recorded request/authorization pairs; the _auth empty-value case now asserts the 401 + exit 1 it was previously masking via a warm cache.
  • Hermeticity: the home-config override case's registry.npmjs.org reference is replaced with a local recordingRegistry that must see zero requests; port: 0 everywhere; no timing waits; the one order-dependent output (two concurrent 404s) is compared sorted.
  • Conventions: tempDir/bunEnv/normalizeBunSnapshot/await using used throughout, dynamic require replaced with a static import, Buffer.alloc for the caret indent (second commit).
Extended reasoning...

Overview

This PR rewrites test/cli/install/npmrc.test.ts (514 insertions, 566 deletions, net -52) from ad-hoc Bun.$/registry.createTestDir()/console.log style to the harness conventions in CLAUDE.md and test/CLAUDE.md: tempDir + Bun.spawn with await using, normalizeBunSnapshot + inline snapshots, describe.concurrent, it.each tables, and shared helpers (envFor, bun, install, lockfileTarballs, recordingRegistry, npmrcDefaults). It creates one Verdaccio user in beforeAll (per-test generateUser/createTestDir rewrite htpasswd and would race under concurrency), gives each spawned install its own cache and home dir, replaces a registry.npmjs.org reference with a local recording server, adds one negative control to the XDG lookup group, and folds three duplicated Bun.serve request-recording stubs into recordingRegistry. No production code is touched.

Security risks

None. This is a test-only change. It actually removes the one line that could contact the public internet (the home-config .npmrc pointing at https://registry.npmjs.org/) in favor of a local port: 0 server. No credentials, no auth paths, no changes to what ships.

Level of scrutiny

Low-to-moderate. The line count is large but the change is mechanical: it converts shell-based fixture setup to the exact patterns the repo's CLAUDE.md prescribes, and every previous assertion is either preserved or made strictly stronger (exit-code-only → full snapshot + lockfile + request list). REVIEW.md's "never silently weaken an existing test" rule is satisfied — I checked each converted case and the only behavioral difference is that the _auth from .env variable with no value case now asserts the 401 and exit 1 it was previously hiding behind a shared warm cache, which is a tightening. The one order-sensitive assertion (two concurrent 404 lines in the IPv6 case) is sorted before comparison, and the port-width-dependent caret column is computed rather than snapshotted, both explicitly to avoid flakes.

Other factors

The bug hunt ran to dry_streak with zero findings and zero ruled-out candidates. No CODEOWNERS entry covers this path. The one third-party inline comment (coderabbitai at line 472) was resolved by a non-author and followed by commit 2ece7b0 ("build the caret indent with Buffer.alloc"), which matches the Buffer.alloc(...).toString() convention in test/CLAUDE.md. There are no outstanding CHANGES_REQUESTED reviews. The PR description claims verification on both bun bd test (8 runs, 0 failures, ~4.3-4.6s vs ~7.1-7.3s before) and Windows x64 canary; while I can't independently verify the run, the code matches the described behavior and the Windows-relevant USERPROFILE/realpathSync handling is present.
