cargo-make

name	cargo-make
description	Cargo make commands for actix-demo project. Use when running lint, format, unit tests, or flaky tests. Front-load: lint-check, format, test, flaky-test.

Cargo Make Commands

All commands use cargo make (not raw cargo). Never run cargo test directly — it skips testcontainers shutdown hooks, leaving orphaned Docker containers.

Commands

Command	What it does
cargo make lint-check	cargo fmt --check + cargo clippy -- -D warnings
cargo make format	cargo fmt --all
cargo make test	Unit tests only (cargo test --lib)
cargo make flaky-test	Flaky/integration tests with retries (WS and email tests)

Rules

• Never truncate cargo test output with tail, head, or pipes. Testcontainers cleanup runs after the process exits; truncating kills the pipe before shutdown hooks fire.
• If containers accumulate, run: docker rm -f $(docker ps -aq)
• Always run cargo make lint-check after making code changes.
• Use cargo make test for fast feedback during development.
• Use cargo make flaky-test when email/WS tests fail intermittently.
