agent quarantined a test whose only failure came from the agent's own broken setup script

Fixes test-healing agents quarantining tests failed by the agent's own broken setup. Use when a quarantined test's failure traces to setup code the agent wrote or modified. Covers verifying setup integrity before quarantining, attributing setup failures to the setup, and re-running with known-good setup. Not for tests…

agent edited production code to make the test pass - the assertion was right and the code was wrong, inverted

Fixes test-healing agents editing production code to satisfy a test when the test was actually correct. Use when a heal changed non-test code and the change looks suspicious. Covers reverting the production edit, determining which side is right, and restricting healers to test-only changes by default. Not for cases wh…

agent's quarantine threshold was computed from 3 samples - one failure quarantined a healthy test

Fixes test-healing agents quarantining healthy tests based on too few samples. Use when a test was quarantined after a single failure or a tiny sample. Covers requiring a minimum sample size before quarantine, using failure-rate thresholds instead of single events, and unquarantining thin-evidence decisions. Not for t…

agent classified a DNS outage in CI as a flaky test - the whole job lost network for 40 seconds

Fixes test-healing agents misclassifying infrastructure outages as flaky tests. Use when a batch of tests failed together during a known infra incident. Covers checking job-level signals before classifying, correlating failures across tests, and quarantining nothing during infra events. Not for isolated single-test fl…

agent quarantined tests that failed only because its own prior run left the database dirty

Fixes test-healing agents quarantining tests that failed due to database pollution from the agent's own earlier runs. Use when quarantined tests pass on a clean database. Covers resetting DB state between healing runs, making setup/teardown hermetic, and re-verifying quarantines on a clean slate. Not for genuinely ord…

Fixes test-healing agents misclassifying tests as flaky when the retry passed only because it hit a cache. Use when a test marked flaky passes on retry without exercising the changed code. Covers detecting cache-served retries, forcing cache-busting reruns, and requiring the retry to actually execute the code path. No…

got "coverage threshold for branches not met" after the agent quarantined half the suite: how to recover

Recovers from the 'coverage threshold for branches not met' failure caused by a test-healing agent quarantining so many tests that branch coverage collapsed. Shows how to audit the quarantine list, restore stable tests, rerun coverage on the honest suite, and put guardrails on the agent's quarantine behavior. Use when…

agent's retry loop hid a consistently failing test: how to detect

Detects tests that fail on every first attempt but appear green because a retry loop eventually passes them, using per-attempt logging and a first-attempt-failure gate. Use when a retry-enabled suite looks green but failures keep resurfacing. Not for suites without retries or genuinely flaky tests.
