# Phase 16 Plan 02: E2E Tests for Flag Translation Commands Summary

**9 E2E tests validating clean, config, switch commands with bug fix for combined short flags and directory removal**

## Performance

- **Duration:** 5 min
- **Started:** 2026-01-19T23:52:16Z
- **Completed:** 2026-01-19T23:57:23Z
- **Tasks:** 3
- **Files modified:** 5

## Accomplishments
- Created test_clean.py with 4 tests: force removal, safety rejection, directory removal, dry run
- Created test_config.py with 3 tests: read value, write value, list all
- Created test_switch.py with 2 tests: switch to bookmark, create bookmark
- Registered clean, config, switch pytest markers
- Fixed cmd_clean.py to handle combined short flags and directory removal correctly

## Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. **Task 1: Create E2E tests for clean, config, switch commands** - `7d844ab` (test)
2. **Task 2: Register pytest markers for Phase 16 commands** - `4fb8db3` (chore)
3. **Task 3: Run full test suite and verify all tests pass** - `fc21473` (fix)

## Files Created/Modified
- `tests/test_clean.py` - 4 tests for CLEAN-01/02/03 + safety rejection
- `tests/test_config.py` - 3 tests for CONFIG-01/02/03
- `tests/test_switch.py` - 2 tests for SWITCH-01/02
- `pytest.ini` - Added clean, config, switch markers
- `cmd_clean.py` - Fixed combined short flag handling and -d translation

## Decisions Made
- Tests use combined short flags (e.g., -fd) to ensure handler robustness
- Safety test verifies both exit code 128 AND error message content

## Deviations from Plan

### Auto-fixed Issues

**1. [Rule 1 - Bug] Fixed combined short flag handling in clean handler**
- **Found during:** Task 3 (test verification)
- **Issue:** Handler checked for '-f' as standalone arg, but -fd is passed as single combined flag
- **Fix:** Updated flag detection to check for 'f' character within any flag starting with '-'
- **Files modified:** cmd_clean.py
- **Verification:** All 9 Phase 16 tests pass
- **Committed in:** fc21473 (Task 3 commit)

**2. [Rule 1 - Bug] Fixed -d flag translation to include --dirs**
- **Found during:** Task 3 (test verification)
- **Issue:** sl purge without --dirs leaves untracked directories after deleting files inside them
- **Fix:** Added --files --dirs flags when -d is present to match git clean -fd behavior
- **Files modified:** cmd_clean.py
- **Verification:** test_clean_removes_untracked_dir passes
- **Committed in:** fc21473 (Task 3 commit)

---

**Total deviations:** 2 auto-fixed (2 bugs)
**Impact on plan:** Both fixes were necessary for correct operation. Clean -fd must remove directories as git users expect.

## Issues Encountered

None beyond the bugs discovered and fixed during test verification.

## User Setup Required

None - no external service configuration required.

## Next Phase Readiness
- Phase 16 complete: 8 requirements validated (CLEAN-01/02/03, CONFIG-01/02/03, SWITCH-01/02)
- All 149 tests pass (9 new + 140 existing)
- Ready for Phase 17: Branch and restore
