Test — i18n Coverage & Persistence
Task: AZ-465_test_i18n
Name: i18n key parity + t() coverage + detector + persistence
Description: Implement the 4 blackbox tests that pin the i18n contract: en↔ua key parity (static), t() coverage (no raw user-visible strings), boot-time language detector, and persistence across reload.
Complexity: 3 points
Dependencies: AZ-456_test_infrastructure
Component: 03_shared-ui + 10_app-shell (i18n) (Blackbox Tests)
Tracker: AZ-465
Epic: AZ-455
Problem
A missing translation key or a hardcoded user-visible string only surfaces when a user switches language — by which point it's a customer-visible defect. Static checks + a behavioral test for detect/persist catch these at commit time.
Outcome
- 4 scenarios pass per the contract.
- The "no raw strings" check is enforceable in CI and produces a clear allow-list mechanism for legitimate non-i18n text (e.g. brand names).
Scope
Included
| Scenario | Profile | Source file | results_report row |
|---|---|---|---|
| FT-P-22 — i18n key parity en ↔ ua | static | blackbox-tests.md | 45 |
FT-P-23 — no raw user-visible strings outside t(...) |
static | blackbox-tests.md | 46 |
| FT-P-24 — i18n detector path used at first boot | fast + e2e | blackbox-tests.md | 47 |
| FT-P-25 — i18n persistence across reload | fast + e2e | blackbox-tests.md | 48 |
Excluded
- Adding a third language (project is en + ua per scope).
- RTL support (not required by any AC).
Acceptance Criteria
AC-1: Key parity
Static check: keys(en.json) == keys(ua.json) (set equality). Test FAILS on any drift.
AC-2: t() coverage
Static check via ripgrep + AST walker: every JSX text node and string-literal aria-* / title / placeholder either lives in an i18n key, is in the allow-list (brand names, version strings), or fails the check.
AC-3: Detector path
First boot with no persisted language preference: SPA reads navigator.language and renders the matching bundle.
AC-4: Persistence After user switches to UA and reloads, the UA bundle is rendered without explicit user action.
System Under Test Boundary
- System under test:
src/i18n/i18n.ts+ every React component rendering user-visible text. - Allowed stubs: none beyond the standard test renderer.
- Disallowed: reading the i18n state directly — the test asserts the rendered DOM text.
- Expected observables per rows 45-48.
Constraints
- Allow-list file lives at
tests/i18n-allowlist.json; CI enforces it must not grow without a code-review reason.
Risks & Mitigation
Risk 1 — AST walker false positives
- Risk: the t() coverage walker may misclassify dynamic strings (e.g.
t(\key_${id}`)`) or ternaries. - Mitigation: explicit allow-list per file, plus a comment marker
// i18n-ok: <reason>honored by the walker.
