Build out the Approach-B harness driver utilities atop the Wave 1
production paths. Three new files form the shared scaffold that
Wave 3's 13 assertion drivers (A1-A5, A7-A13) and the eventual
orchestrator (`tests/uat/harness.test.ts`) will all consume. The
standalone A6 driver (`tests/uat/a6.test.ts`) is rewritten to use
the new lib — behavior-preserving: A6 still PASSES 5/5 in ~7s.
New files:
- tests/uat/lib/launch.ts (~320 LoC)
`launchHarnessBrowser({ headless?, downloadsDir? }) → HarnessHandles`
Extracts the Chrome-launch + victim-page + harness-page + console-
attach pattern from a6.test.ts into a single reusable helper.
NEW vs prototype: CDP `Browser.setDownloadBehavior` wires
Chrome's download path to a per-run `mkdtempSync` tmp dir so A5
(SAVE_ARCHIVE) can poll a known location without colliding with
the operator's real downloads. Architectural commitments
enforced (per 01-11-SUMMARY): no `--auto-select-desktop-capture-
source` flag; victim about:blank brought to front for the
production `chrome.tabs.query({active:true})` workaround; SW
console attach best-effort with bounded poll; offscreen console
attach opportunistic via `targetcreated` listener (offscreen
target appears later, when the harness page calls
chrome.offscreen.createDocument).
- tests/uat/lib/assertions.ts (~210 LoC)
Host-side assertion primitives:
* `AssertionRecord`, `CheckRecord`, `ConsoleBuffers` types —
mirror the page-side shape returned by `assertA*` methods.
* `runAssertion(name, fn, buffers)` — try/catch wrapper that
dumps the SW + offscreen console tails (last 100 lines each)
to stderr on failure, then returns `{passed: false, error}`
if `fn` throws.
* `printAssertionResult(result)` — single source of truth for
the formatted result print. Extracted from the inline
`printResult` previously in the prototype's a6.test.ts so
Wave 3's orchestrator can reuse it across all 14 assertions.
* `assertEqual / assertGte / assertMatch / assertTrue` —
structured failure messages atop node:assert/strict.
* `waitFor(probe, predicate, timeoutMs, description)` — host-
side polling primitive; mirrors the page-side waitFor
semantics verbatim (they can't share a module: page-side is
bundled into the harness HTML, host-side runs in Node).
NO chrome.* helpers here — all chrome.* work happens inside the
extension-internal harness page. This module is host-side ONLY
by construction (no chrome global in Node anyway).
- tests/uat/lib/harness-page-driver.ts (~170 LoC)
One driver wrapper per assertion (A1..A13). Each wraps a single
`page.evaluate(() => window.__mokoshHarness.assertXX())`.
Centralizing this means adding/renaming an assertion = two-file
edit (extension-page-harness.ts impl + this file) instead of
touching every test-file caller.
Wave 2 wires `driveA6` (proven from c647f61). The 12 Wave-3
drivers (driveA1..A5, A7..A13) are stubbed as
`throw new Error('NOT YET IMPLEMENTED — Wave 3<X> wires driveXX')`
so the future orchestrator's `for (const drive of drivers)` loop
fails cleanly on the first unimplemented one (bail-on-first-
failure semantics). The `AssertionWithBytes` type is declared
for A5/A12/A13 which return `bytesBase64` payloads (zip / webm
bytes that the host side processes after the page-side
assertion completes).
Rewrite — `tests/uat/a6.test.ts`:
- Drops ~80 LoC of Chrome-launch + console-attach + result-print
plumbing now living in lib/launch.ts + lib/assertions.ts.
- Now ~70 LoC total — pure orchestration of
launchHarnessBrowser → runAssertion(driveA6) → printAssertionResult
→ browser.close() → exit code.
- Behavior-preserving: A6 still 5/5 GREEN with the same diagnostic
output (SETUP, A6.1-A6.4) and the same ~7s end-to-end runtime.
Verification (all GREEN):
- `npx tsc --noEmit` — exit 0 (root + tests/uat/tsconfig.json).
- `npx tsx tests/uat/a6.test.ts` — exits 0 with "PASS"; 5 checks
GREEN (SETUP, A6.1, A6.2, A6.3, A6.4). End-to-end runtime ~7s
headless on this workstation.
- `npm run build` — exit 0; Tier-1 grep gate GREEN (production
bundle contains zero hook strings AND zero lib symbol names —
the new lib files are test-only and not bundled into dist/).
- `npm run build:test` — exit 0; dist-test/ still emits the
extension-page-harness.html harness (lib files are host-side,
not rollup inputs).
- `npx vitest run` — 92/92 GREEN.
Wave 3 ready: harness-page-driver.ts has driveA1..A5/A7..A13 stubs
in place; extending requires only:
1. Add `assertAXX` method to window.__mokoshHarness in
tests/uat/extension-page-harness.ts.
2. Replace the corresponding stub body in this file with the
page.evaluate wrapper.
3. (Wave 3A) Create tests/uat/harness.test.ts orchestrator that
iterates over [A0 grep gate, driveA1..A13] with bail-on-fail.

Mokosh UAT harness (Plan 01-11)
Puppeteer-driven Node script that runs 14 assertions end-to-end against a real Chrome instance loaded with the Mokosh extension. Replaces Plan 01-09 Task 5's operator-empirical functional verification (the operator retains only step 1 — build — and step 14 — brand/design acceptance).
Quick start
npm run test:uat
This builds dist-test/ (the hook-enabled bundle) and runs the harness.
Exit 0 means all 14 assertions passed. Final line: UAT harness: 14/14 assertions passed.
Local-debug mode
HEADLESS=0 npm run test:uat
Opens a real Chrome window so you can watch the picker auto-accept, the badge transitions, the popup appear, etc.
Developer iteration tricks
# Skip the production build inside assertion 0 (uses existing dist/):
SKIP_PROD_REBUILD=1 npm run test:uat
# Run the harness against an existing dist-test/ (skip npm run build:test):
npx tsx tests/uat/harness.test.ts

Failure isolation
Single browser, serial assertions, bail on first failure for setup- dependent assertions (assertion 0 abort means refusing to launch a potentially-leaky bundle). Per-assertion bail keeps the diagnostic output unambiguous — see RESEARCH §5 + Plan 01-11 open-question resolution 4.
On failure, the harness dumps the last 30 lines of SW console + last 30 lines of offscreen console (captured live during the run) to stderr BEFORE rethrowing — gives you contextual triage without needing to re- run with debug logging.
Known gotchas
Locale-specific picker auto-accept
The --auto-select-desktop-capture-source=Entire screen Chrome flag
auto-accepts the screen-share picker. The string "Entire screen" is
en_US-specific. If your Chrome is set to a non-English locale, the
picker option label will differ and the auto-accept will silently fail
(picker stays open; assertion 2 times out).
Fallback: switch your Chrome user-data-dir's locale to en_US for
harness runs, OR adjust the launch arg in tests/uat/lib/launch.ts to
match your locale's equivalent string.
dev-dep Chromium binary size
puppeteer pulls a ~150 MB Chromium binary at npm install time. CI
must accept this. Production npm install --omit=dev skips it cleanly.
Xvfb is NOT required
Per Plan 01-11 RESEARCH §3 empirical probes against Chrome 148, the
--headless=new mode handles screen capture without Xvfb on Linux CI
runners. If a future Chrome regresses this, Xvfb :99 & DISPLAY=:99 npm run test:uat is the fallback.
CI runner screen-capture concern
The 35s recording assertion (A11) captures whatever is on screen during that window. CI MUST run the harness in an isolated container with no concurrent workload — see T-1-11-02 in Plan 01-11's threat model.
Real Chrome download (assertion 5 → A12)
The harness configures per-page download behavior via CDP to a fresh
os.tmpdir()/mokosh-uat-downloads-* directory; downloads are NOT
written to your real ~/Downloads. The temp directory is deleted by OS
tmpdir GC.
