Maintainer CI and CTest Workflow

Use this skill only for iccDEV maintainer-owned infrastructure changes: .github/**, Dockerfile*, CTest registration, CPack and release packaging, sanitizer helper policy, CodeQL/workflow governance, vcpkg release verification, and security automation.

General contributor requests should be redirected to issue or PR descriptions unless an iccDEV maintainer explicitly approved the infrastructure change.

Scope Decision

Choose the smallest maintainer-owned surface that proves the behavior:

Change	Primary location	Required docs
Add profile input	Testing/CreateAllProfiles.*	docs/ctest.md if counts change
Add profile validation	Testing/RunTests.*	docs/ctest.md if CTest coverage changes
Add focused Linux regression	.github/scripts/*.sh	.github/ci/regression/README.md or docs/ctest.md
Register CTest suite	Build/Cmake/Testing/CMakeLists.txt	docs/ctest.md
Change workflow gate	.github/workflows/*.yml	docs/regression-workflow-governance.md
Change maintainer Dockerfile	Dockerfile*	docs/build.md and docs/regression-workflow-governance.md
Change sanitizer policy	Build/Cmake/CMakeLists.txt, .github/scripts/sanitize-*	.github/instructions/*
Change CPack/release packaging	Build/Cmake/**, release workflows	docs/build.md or release docs
Change vcpkg release verification	ports/iccdev/**, vcpkg workflows	vcpkg skill/docs

Keep contributor code changes separate from maintainer infrastructure commits when practical.

CTest Rules

• check must exist on every platform.
• check and workflow CTest execution must use --no-tests=error.
• Do not add hard-coded CTest suite totals to workflows, docs, or maintainer instructions; keep suite lists descriptive and let CTest discovery report the current total.
• Adding checks inside iccdev-tool-coverage-baseline.sh does not change that count; validate the direct script and ctest -R '^iccdev\.tool-coverage$'.
• Windows full builds include focused executable regressions, batch-backed suites, dump/profile smoke coverage, shared-export coverage, and PAWG report coverage.
• Generated-profile gates currently validate 208 ICC profiles.
• Windows and JSON profile generation validate 130 profile parses.
• WASM parity currently expects 208 generated ICC profiles.
• WASM generated-profile count changes must update both the workflow inputs and Build/Cmake/wasm-package/regression.js; the packaged script is the fallback source used by local and release parity runs.
• Windows batch CTest runs must use the disposable Testing copy under the build tree and must not dirty the source Testing/ directory.
• Windows executable tests must receive runtime DLL directories through Build/Cmake/Testing/WindowsRuntimePaths.cmake; do not rely on a developer or runner shell PATH for vcpkg or MinGW runtime DLLs.
• MinGW builds still need UCRT64 bin on the invoking shell PATH because GCC subprocesses such as cc1plus.exe depend on MSYS2 runtime DLLs during build.

Workflow Rules

• Follow .github/instructions/workflow-governance.instructions.md.
• Do not use || true around profile generation, CTest discovery, regression execution, sanitizer checks, or packaging verification.
• Use least-privilege permissions and credential cleanup.
• Sanitize all GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY and GITHUB_OUTPUT writes.
• Trigger shared-concurrency workflows sequentially to avoid canceling your own run. Use ci-pr-action for normal maintainer validation and ci-regression-checks through that orchestrator for ASAN/UBSAN CTest coverage.

Local Validation

file <changed-files>
git diff --check
cmake -S Build/Cmake -B build -DENABLE_TOOLS=ON -DENABLE_TESTS=ON -DENABLE_WXWIDGETS=OFF
cmake --build build --parallel "$(nproc)"
ctest --test-dir build -N --no-tests=error
ctest --test-dir build --output-on-failure --no-tests=error

For tool coverage script changes:

ICCDEV_TOOLS_DIR=$PWD/build/Tools \
ICCDEV_TESTING_DIR=$PWD/Testing \
ICCDEV_TEST_OUTDIR=/tmp/iccdev-tool-output \
  .github/scripts/iccdev-tool-coverage-baseline.sh --asan --quick
ctest --test-dir build -R '^iccdev\.tool-coverage$' --output-on-failure

For workflow YAML:

python3 -c "import yaml; [yaml.safe_load(open(p)) for p in ['.github/workflows/<workflow>.yml']]; print('YAML parse OK')"
actionlint -no-color .github/workflows/<workflow>.yml

For CPack, install/export, vcpkg, or release packaging changes, run the nearest packaging smoke test and inspect logs for missing files, duplicate install manifest entries, CRT mismatch warnings, and skipped smoke coverage.

For Dockerfile* changes:

docker build -t iccdev-container-check -f <Dockerfile> .
docker run --rm iccdev-container-check <smoke-command>

For Dockerfile.ci-regression, also run a no-cache build and smoke clang-18, clang++-18, cmake, and /usr/bin/time. Publishing requires the ghcr-publish environment branch policy to allow the branch before deployment approval, followed by pinning the new digest in ci-iccdev-tool-tests.yml.

GitHub Validation

After pushing, trigger only the workflows affected by the change:

gh workflow run "ci-pr-action" --repo InternationalColorConsortium/iccDEV --ref <branch> -f ci_scope=full
gh workflow run "ci-risk-analysis" --repo InternationalColorConsortium/iccDEV --ref <branch> \
  -f analysis_target="Specific git ref" -f git_ref=<full-sha> -f severity_threshold=HIGH -f fail_on_findings=true

Wait for shared-concurrency workflows one at a time. Capture run IDs, head SHA, job conclusions, artifact names, and key sentinel lines such as Total Tests, 100% tests passed, generated-profile counts, and sanitizer summaries.

Handoff

Report:

• Branch and commit SHA.
• Maintainer-owned scope touched and why.
• Expected counts changed or confirmed unchanged.
• Local commands and outcomes.
• GitHub run IDs, conclusions, artifacts, and any annotations.
• Remaining Windows, packaging, or release validation that requires hosted runners.
