What changed

  • zone_server/src/state.rs (tests only): cache_accessor_exposes_a_connected_cache_when_available takes its URL from REDIS_URL through a new test_cache_url() helper instead of the literal redis://localhost:6379. With REDIS_URL unset it returns early, as it already did when the connect failed; it never falls back to localhost. The URL is read under zone_core::variables::Variables (the process-wide env lock) so a concurrent test changing REDIS_URL cannot make it skip under cargo test.
  • New regression test the_test_cache_url_comes_only_from_redis_url: holds the env lock, asserts the helper returns None with REDIS_URL unset and the given URL when set.

Why

The test opened a connection to whatever listened on localhost:6379. On a developer machine that is the developer's own Redis (on Jake's, his native Redis), not a test server, so a local test run touched real data.

How it was verified

  • Red: with test_cache_url() still returning the literal, zone-verify.sh <wt> zr5 scoped - -- -p zone_server -E 'test(/cache/)' failed the_test_cache_url_comes_only_from_redis_url (left: Some("redis://localhost:6379"), right: None).
  • Green: the same scoped run passed (fmt, clippy --all-features -D warnings, migrations, 47/47 cache tests including the integration cache::* suite against a private Valkey).
  • zone-verify.sh <wt> zr5 ready (private pg17 + Valkey): fmt, clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features -D warnings, migrations, nextest list, and nextest over the workspace with the CI flags all passed: 6321 tests run, 6321 passed, 62 skipped.
  • CI on this PR (Linux and macOS test suites set REDIS_URL, so the connected path runs there).

Not verified

  • Locally, the ready run stopped after nextest passed: its own-build check looked for zone_server's compile line in the nextest step, but nextest list had already built it (a defect in the local verify harness, not in zone). Doc tests, sqlx-prepare.sh --check, cargo deny and the dependency-tree guards therefore ran only in CI. The change is #[cfg(test)]-only and touches no dependency, query or doc comment.
  • The connected path of cache_accessor_exposes_a_connected_cache_when_available did not run locally; the local harness excludes it by name as defence in depth. CI exercises it.

Behaviour differences

  • The test is skipped (returns early) unless REDIS_URL is set. CI sets it in rust-test.yml (Linux redis://localhost:6379 against the Valkey service, macOS redis://127.0.0.1:56379) and rust-coverage.yml, so CI still exercises the connected path.
  • Note: test_config() and the tests' create_test_config() still carry dummy redis://localhost:6379 and postgres://localhost/… URLs. Those are safe only while the pools built from them stay lazy (PgPool::connect_lazy, and no test connecting a cache from config.redis_url); a test that eagerly connects from those configs would dial the developer's own services again.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

cache_accessor_exposes_a_connected_cache_when_available dialled the
literal redis://localhost:6379, so on a developer machine it opened a
connection to whatever Redis listens there (Jake's own), not a test
server. It now takes its URL from REDIS_URL through test_cache_url() and
returns early when the variable is unset, just as it already did when
the connect failed. CI sets REDIS_URL on Linux, macOS and coverage, so
the connected path still runs there.

The URL is read under zone_core's process-wide environment lock so a
concurrent test that changes REDIS_URL cannot make it skip.
the_test_cache_url_comes_only_from_redis_url pins the helper: None with
REDIS_URL unset, the given URL when set.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests
    • Cache accessor tests now use the configured Redis URL and skip connection checks when it is unavailable.
    • Added coverage for reading the Redis URL from the environment.

Walkthrough

The cache accessor test now gets its Redis URL from REDIS_URL and returns early if the variable is unset or the cache connection fails. A new isolated-environment test checks the URL helper when the variable is unset and configured.

Changes

Redis test URL configuration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configure Redis URL for cache tests
runner/zone_server/src/state.rs
The cache accessor test uses the URL returned by test_cache_url() instead of a hard-coded localhost URL. A new isolated-environment test checks the helper's behavior when REDIS_URL is unset and set.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 94efc

The configured-cache test can pass without checking the connected-cache behavior when Redis is unreachable. Fail the test on connection errors to preserve CI coverage; the impact is limited to confidence in this test.

Fail when the configured cache cannot connect.

When REDIS_URL is set, a failed Cache::connect(&url).await returns success before state.cache() is checked. CI sets REDIS_URL and runs this test through the workspace nextest command, so an unavailable configured cache can pass without exercising the regression assertion.

Suggested fix
-        let Ok(cache) = Cache::connect(&url).await else {
-            return;
-        };
+        let cache = Cache::connect(&url)
+            .await
+            .expect("REDIS_URL must point to a reachable cache");
