test: Measure and track code coverage (#2636)
# What does this PR do?
<!-- Provide a short summary of what this PR does and why. Link to
relevant issues if applicable. -->
- Added coverage badge to README. - [See my
fork](https://github.com/ChristianZaccaria/llama-stack)
- Added a GitHub Actions workflow that runs the tests and updates the
coverage badge. - [See
run](4574811323)
- Documented steps in `testing.md` for running the tests locally, and
viewing the `html` report.
- Excluded non-essential files from coverage reporting to provide a more
accurate measurement.

Automatically created PR to update coverage badge:

# Note for reviewers
1. Currently the coverage report shows a 45% coverage. Wondering if
there are other files or directories that should also be excluded from
the report to increase the percentage. The directories with the least
test coverage are `llama_stack/cli`, `llama_stack/models`, and
`llama_stack/ui`. - Should we exclude these?
2. **[Required]** The `GITHUB_TOKEN` should have write permissions to
open a PR to update the coverage badge.

Llama Stack Unit Tests

Unit Tests

Unit tests verify individual components and functions in isolation. They are fast, reliable, and don't require external services.

Prerequisites

  1. Python Environment: Ensure you have Python 3.12+ installed
  2. uv Package Manager: Install uv if not already installed

You can run the unit tests by running:

./scripts/unit-tests.sh [PYTEST_ARGS]

Any additional arguments are passed to pytest. For example, you can specify a test directory, a specific test file, or any pytest flags (e.g., -vvv for verbosity). If no test directory is specified, it defaults to "tests/unit", e.g:

./scripts/unit-tests.sh tests/unit/registry/test_registry.py -vvv

If you'd like to run for a non-default version of Python (currently 3.12), pass PYTHON_VERSION variable as follows:

source .venv/bin/activate
PYTHON_VERSION=3.13 ./scripts/unit-tests.sh

Test Configuration

  • Test Discovery: Tests are automatically discovered in the tests/unit/ directory
  • Async Support: Tests use --asyncio-mode=auto for automatic async test handling
  • Coverage: Tests generate coverage reports in htmlcov/ directory
  • Python Version: Defaults to Python 3.12, but can be overridden with PYTHON_VERSION environment variable

Coverage Reports

After running tests, you can view coverage reports:

# Open HTML coverage report in browser
open htmlcov/index.html  # macOS
xdg-open htmlcov/index.html  # Linux
start htmlcov/index.html  # Windows
