// THE VERIFY STEP COULD NEVER PASS — the reason the library stayed empty through seven builds. // // Watched live on 2026-09-11, build run#33. Its flow ran flawlessly: the login check said signedIn, // the branch took the signed-in path, the agent read the page and its own report quoted the title // "Praca Zdalna ... Zlecenia dla freelancerow" and twenty job listings. On the very same url, the // verify step returned found=false. Four redesigns later it was still false. // // The verify step was asking confirmPosted, which answers a different question: "is the comment I // just typed actually posted?" For THAT, demanding a long distinctive string and refusing to guess // below 40 alphanumerics is correct. But makeRunVerify reads `found === true`, so the null that means // "too short to tell" arrived as "not on the page". Every proof a builder would sensibly pick is // short — a currency code, a heading, a price — so the verify contract was unsatisfiable, no flow // could be filed, and the builds were not confused: they were being told plain text was absent. // // These tests pin the two questions apart, and the first one is the regression: it fails outright // against confirmPosted. import { describe, it, expect } from 'vitest'; import agent from '../src/agent.js'; const { pageHasText, confirmPosted, flatten, stripMarks, readableText } = agent; /* A stand-in page: page.evaluate(readableText) is the only thing either function asks of it. */ const pageShowing = (text, { failEvaluate = false } = {}) => ({ evaluate: async (fn) => { if (failEvaluate) throw new Error('the page went away'); expect(fn).toBe(readableText); // both must read the same visible-text walk return text; }, }); const USEME = 'Praca Zdalna » Praca Online Oferty » Zlecenia dla freelancerów ' + 'Sklep internetowy WooCommerce 2 500 PLN Strona wizytówka dla kancelarii 1 200 PLN'; describe('the verify step asks whether the page says this', () => { it('THE REGRESSION — a short, sensible proof is FOUND, where confirmPosted could only say null', async () => { for (const proof of ['PLN', 'Zlecenia dla freelancerów', 'WooCommerce', '2 500 PLN']) { expect(await pageHasText(pageShowing(USEME), proof), proof).toBe(true); // the old route: too short to identify, so null — which makeRunVerify read as "not found" expect(await confirmPosted(pageShowing(USEME), proof, [0]), proof).toBeNull(); } }); it('says false, not true, when the page genuinely does not say it', async () => { expect(await pageHasText(pageShowing(USEME), 'Zapisane oferty', [0])).toBe(false); expect(await pageHasText(pageShowing(''), 'PLN', [0])).toBe(false); }); it('accents, case and line breaks cannot hide a match', async () => { // the builder typed the diacritics; the page has them too, but neither side may depend on it expect(await pageHasText(pageShowing('ZLECENIA DLA FREELANCEROW'), 'Zlecenia dla freelancerów', [0])).toBe(true); expect(await pageHasText(pageShowing('Zlecenia dla freelancerów'), 'zlecenia dla freelancerow', [0])).toBe(true); // markup spacing: a heading split across lines is still that heading expect(await pageHasText(pageShowing('Zlecenia' + String.fromCharCode(10) + ' dla freelancerów'), 'Zlecenia dla freelancerów', [0])).toBe(true); }); it('refuses to answer on something that could not be evidence, and never says yes', async () => { expect(await pageHasText(pageShowing(USEME), 'PL', [0])).toBeNull(); expect(await pageHasText(pageShowing(USEME), '', [0])).toBeNull(); expect(await pageHasText(pageShowing(USEME), null, [0])).toBeNull(); }); it('a page it cannot read is "cannot tell", not "not there"', async () => { expect(await pageHasText(pageShowing(USEME, { failEvaluate: true }), 'PLN', [0])).toBeNull(); }); it('retries a page that is still settling, and stops as soon as it sees it', async () => { let look = 0; const settling = { evaluate: async () => { look += 1; return look < 3 ?
