Summary

This PR successfully implements unified static syntax validation, integrates on-the-fly Stata validations inside Playwright end-to-end tests, builds a path-aware conditional skipping framework for local Python/R runs, and introduces cross-language structural and sequence parity verification to preserve GCP and FDA data integrity.

Changes Made

  1. Unified Static Syntax Validator (scripts/validate-syntax.mjs):

    • Designed a new CLI script that scans all SAS and Stata generated files under artifacts/code-generation-fixtures.
    • Runs both validators and bubbles up failures, and exits cleanly.
    • Added "test:syntax": "tsx scripts/validate-syntax.mjs" to package.json.
    • Refactored individual SAS/Stata syntax scripts to support passing single file arguments, and conditionally invoke main() when run directly as a script (ignoring execution when imported).
  2. On-the-Fly Stata Static Validation in E2E (tests_e2e/code-generation-fixture.spec.ts):

    • Integrated execution of the Stata syntax checker during the Playwright file export loop. Each exported .do file is validated dynamically as soon as it is extracted, throwing an descriptive error upon syntax anomalies.
  3. Graceful Runtime Bypassing for Python/R:

    • Modified Playwright execution block to detect python3 and Rscript presence using path-checking utilities.
    • Skipped execution tests locally if the runtimes are missing instead of failing the developer’s local run.
  4. Cross-Language Sequence & Structural Parity Checks:

    • Programmed regex-based parsers to extract critical configuration details (Protocol ID, Seed hash, Algorithm name, Precision Scale/Epsilon) across exported R, Python, SAS, and Stata scripts and validated exact structural parity.
    • Dynamically executed both R and Python (if available), parsed their CSV stream outputs, and performed a strict cell-for-cell value-parity comparison across all scenarios.

Verification

  • Ran pnpm test:unit successfully (100% pass rate).
  • Ran Playwright end-to-end tests (CODEGEN_FIXTURES=1 npx playwright test tests_e2e/code-generation-fixture.spec.ts --project=chromium) successfully, printing explicit structural and sequence parity confirmations.
  • Ran pnpm test:syntax successfully to validate the final exported SAS and Stata files under artifacts/code-generation-fixtures.

[CI/CD Fix]

Cause of Failure

The code_generation_fixtures CI job failed during the cross-environment sequence parity checks for the zero-cap scenario. In this scenario, stratum caps are explicitly configured to 0, meaning no subjects can be randomized. Consequently, both the Python and R generated scripts correctly produce zero subjects and output an empty sequence (with no CSV headers/SubjectID). The test script tests_e2e/code-generation-fixture.spec.ts was previously throwing an error when it failed to find the SubjectID header in the output, incorrectly flagging this as a failure.

Solution Applied

  • Modified the cross-environment sequence parity checker in tests_e2e/code-generation-fixture.spec.ts to allow empty outputs when both R and Python outputs do not contain a SubjectID header.
  • This maintains strict parity checks for all active randomization scenarios while successfully validating scenarios designed to have zero enrollment capacity.
  • Verified that all unit tests and e2e code generation fixture tests now pass successfully locally with both Python and R runtimes active.
