QAR — Fidelity, Quality, CI and Release

Цель

Сделать точность, производительность и расширяемость проверяемыми свойствами, а не обещаниями.

QAR-1. Fidelity lab

Каталог сценариев original client 3.3.5a: setup, input, server state, expected output.
Paired screenshots/video/log/packet/state evidence с provenance.
Поведение классифицируется: Unknown, Observed, Matched, Intentional deviation, Blocked.
Independent references могут подсказать hypothesis, но не повышают статус без evidence.
Blizzlike bugs/exploits обрабатываются policy decision: protocol compatibility отдельно от harmful behavior.

QAR-2. Test layers

Native unit tests: parsers, crypto, compression, coordinates, math, caches.
GDScript/domain unit tests: reducers, validators, commands, view models.
Contract tests: packets, DB adapters, Lua API, content schemas, renderer facade.
Scene tests: lifecycle, input, UI, renderer attachment, EditorPlugin reload.
Integration: disposable core/DB, import/build/deploy, login/world/gameplay.
E2E: leveling loop, dungeon, PvP/service flows и authoring vertical slices.
Visual/performance and exploratory design tests complement automation.

QAR-3. Godot testing stack

Оценить GdUnit4 как candidate для Godot 4.6 GDScript/scene/CI tests.
Native GDExtension tests используют подходящий C++ test runner отдельно от engine-internal doctest unless Godot itself is rebuilt.
Headless commands возвращают non-zero и machine-readable JUnit/JSON reports.
Scene tests не зависят от proprietary assets: synthetic fixtures or locally resolved optional corpus.
Flaky retries не превращают failure в success; instability измеряется и исправляется.

QAR-4. Golden and property testing

Golden binary structures and exact-byte packet vectors.
Parser round-trip where format permits; malformed/truncated/fuzz corpus.
Coordinate transform property tests and known world points.
Deterministic content manifests, SQL diff and migration before/after fixtures.
Lua oracle corpus, navmesh reference counts/queries, material descriptor mappings.

QAR-5. Performance budgets

Startup/data check/login/world entry.
Streaming cold/warm traversal and teleport.
CPU/GPU frame p50/p95/p99/max hitch, draw calls, memory и descriptors.
Network decode/apply queues and reconciliation error.
UI OnUpdate, event fan-out, Lua allocations/GC.
Editor import/bake/validation latency and cancellation responsiveness.
Server deployment/playtest turnaround.
Budgets hardware/profile-specific and trend tracked.

QAR-6. Observability

Structured logging categories and stable diagnostic codes.
Correlation IDs session/job/entity/content change set.
Runtime metrics: queues, entities, cache hit, resource counts, RIDs, packet rate.
Editor metrics: jobs, diagnostics, artifact hashes, DB operations.
Debug overlays and Godot profiler/visual profiler capture workflow.
Payload, credentials, chat/personal content redacted by default.

QAR-7. CI pipeline

Pull request gates:

formatting/static analysis/document links/target marker validation;
native build and unit tests;
headless Godot load and GDScript tests;
affected parser/protocol/content/adapter contracts;
deterministic artifact check;
renderer smoke if visual code changed;
license/dependency audit.

Nightly/weekly:

disposable TrinityCore/AzerothCore integration;
full packet/Lua/parser replay corpus;
visual checkpoints on available GPU runners;
long traversal, reconnect, cache migration and soak;
previous schema/Godot/core compatibility matrix.

QAR-8. Security and robustness

Bounds checked binary parsing and fuzzing.
Lua sandbox/taint/protected actions.
DB least privilege, read-only default, production protection.
Untrusted addon/content/plugin permission model.
Dependency license/advisory/source pin audit.
Atomic files, backup, recovery and rollback.
No proprietary assets, secrets or production dumps in repository/artifacts.

QAR-9. Documentation and decisions

Architecture/API/schema changes update docs and ADR в том же work package.
Каждый самостоятельный module имеет specification по docs/DOCUMENTATION_STANDARD.md: purpose, boundaries, public API, inputs/outputs, data flow, ownership, errors, tests и source map.
Data-flow diagram обязательна всегда; state/sequence/dependency diagrams обязательны по сложности/lifecycle rules стандарта.
Inline docs являются источником точной сигнатуры, module spec — источником концепции и фактического статуса.
Tooling candidates tracked in docs/TOOLING_CATALOG.md with status and pinned version.
Feature coverage links implementation, tests, fidelity evidence and known gaps.
Generated API docs for documented GDScript/GDExtension public surface включаются в quality gate, когда pipeline подготовлен.
Contributor workflow describes smallest reproducible diagnostic commands.

QAR-10. Packaging and release

Client ships without Blizzard data and guides user to select legally owned install.
Import/cache first-run is resumable and reports disk/time requirements.
Platform packages include matching GDExtension libraries and dependency notices.
Content package and server module releases version independently with compatibility manifest.
Save/settings/content schema migrations tested from supported previous versions.
Release channels: developer, preview, stable; fidelity gaps visible in notes.

Exit gate

Release candidate passes required core/platform/profile matrix; no critical unowned diagnostic; performance regression within approved bounds; artifacts reproducible and license-clean; known fidelity deviations documented.
