Running the backend tests with a high number of processes can cause
unexpected errors with language changes. When certain tests that change
the default language, (without explicitly overriding the teardown method
to reset the default language), interleave with other tests that are
expecting the language to be in English, discrepancies arise.
This fixes a common nondeterministic test failure with high levels of
parallelization.
We should definitely be starting each test case with an empty copy of
the per-request caches, since their intended duration is even shorter
than a request.
This was masked by the fact that these caches are automatically
flushed when one makes an actual request to the Zulip API; so the
problems were only manifesting in tests like test_events, where we
call lower-level functions that access a per-request cache without
using the Zulip API.
The make_import_output_dir helper function used a path determined
primarily by the filename of the fixture being used, and expected to
have complete control over that path for the duration of the test.
This resulted in nondeterministic errors if our two test classes that
ran Mattermost import code ran at the same time.
See the comment, but this is a significant performance optimization
for all of our pages using common_context, because this code path is
called more than a dozen times (recursively) by common_context.
Following recent testing flakes that were traced down to this not
having been called causing `receiver_is_off_zulip` to depend on test
ordering, it makes sense to centralize this.
I think it should always have been in ZulipTestCase; it appears the
reason it wasn't from the beginning was that originally only
test_events.py interacted with it, and do_test there still needs to
call this directly (because it can be called multiple times within a
single test). And then we did the wrong thing as expanded use of
Tornado event_queue code in tests to more of the codebase.
Now reading API keys from a user is done with the get_api_key wrapper
method, rather than directly fetching it from the user object.
Also, every place where an action should be done for each API key is now
using get_all_api_keys. This method returns for the moment a single-item
list, containing the specified user's API key.
This commit is the first step towards allowing users have multiple API
keys.
The only changes visible at the AST level, checked using
https://github.com/asottile/astpretty, are
zerver/lib/test_fixtures.py:
'\x1b\\[(1|0)m' ↦ '\\x1b\\[(1|0)m'
'\\[[X| ]\\] (\\d+_.+)\n' ↦ '\\[[X| ]\\] (\\d+_.+)\\n'
which is fine because re treats '\\x1b' and '\\n' the same way as
'\x1b' and '\n'.

This should significantly improve the user experience for creating
additional accounts on zulipchat.com.
Currently, disabled in production pending some work on visual styling.
This commit adds a new field history_public_to_subscribers to the
Stream model, which serves a similar function to the old
settings.PRIVATE_STREAM_HISTORY_FOR_SUBSCRIBERS; we still use that
setting as the default value for new streams to avoid breaking
backwards-compatibility for those users before we are ready with an
actual UI for users to choose directly.
This also comes with a migration to set the value of the new field for
existing streams with an algorithm matching that used at runtime.
With significant changes by Tim Abbott.
This is an initial part of our efforts on #9232.
webhook-errors.log file is cluttered with Stream.DoesNotExist
errors, which hides the errors that we actually need to see. So,
since check_message already sends the bot_owner a PM if the webhook
bot tries to send a message to a non-existent stream, we can ignore
such exceptions.
These are the straightforward ones.
Note that there is a line in zerver.lib.test_classes.build_webhook_url
that lost test coverage. That's because most of our tests test using
stream messages so the webhook URLs being tested always have a query
parameter. So the line that accounts for there being no query
parameters never gets called, which is fine, but we should still
keep it.
This may be helpful for some API clients, since it avoids them needed
to do somewhat messy post-processing on the results (the data was
always available via scanning for the first unread message in the result).
Fixes#6244.
