`gitTally` is the name of another product in the git space, so the rename is a precaution; nothing about what the build system does changes. The name follows one rule: `Werkator` where it is prose, capitalized where it is a Kotlin type and its file, lowercase everywhere a machine reads it — the command, packages, paths, configuration keys and values, the Gitea check context. Environment variables keep their convention and are uppercase throughout. Every configuration file is still found under its pre-rename name (`ConfigFiles`): `.gittally.yml` at the repository root, in a build worktree and as committed on a branch, `.git/gittally/.gittally.yml` for the machine layer. The current name wins where both exist, and the old file is then ignored rather than merged — two files side by side are a half-done rename, not a layering. Without the fallback an installation that updated without renaming would not fail: a configuration that is not found leaves every setting at its default, so it would come up looking healthy while having forgotten its credentials and its builds. `docs/werkator-migrationsplan.md` lists what the fallback does not cover and has to be moved by hand — above all the state directory `.git/werkator/`, which holds the build history, the control token and the worktrees, and has no fallback of its own. `docs/migration-from-legacy.md` is deleted with this: it mapped the legacy script's environment variables, and every host it addressed has long since moved to the YAML configuration.

Writing Tests for Werkator
Tests use Kotest FunSpec style. SpringExtension is registered globally in io.kotest.provided.ProjectConfig — do not add it per-spec.
class MyTest : FunSpec() {
init {
test("description") { ... }
beforeEach { ... }
}
}
Use shouldBe, shouldNotBe, shouldThrow etc. from io.kotest.matchers.
Tests mirror the production package structure under src/test/kotlin.
Run a single test class instead of the full suite while iterating:
./gradlew test --tests "de.hoennig.werkator.ApplicationContextTest"
Mocking in Spring Slice Tests
Use @MockkBean from springmockk to inject MockK mocks into the Spring context:
@WebMvcTest(SomeController::class)
class SomeControllerTest : FunSpec() {
@MockkBean
lateinit var someService: SomeService
init {
beforeEach { clearMocks(someService) }
// full MockK syntax: every { } / verify { }
}
}
Alternatively, register mocks via @TestConfiguration without the springmockk dependency:
@WebMvcTest(SomeController::class)
@Import(SomeControllerTest.Mocks::class)
class SomeControllerTest : FunSpec() {
@TestConfiguration
class Mocks {
@Bean fun someService(): SomeService = mockk()
}
@Autowired lateinit var someService: SomeService
init {
beforeEach { clearMocks(someService) }
}
}
Pure unit tests (no Spring context) use MockK directly without any Spring wiring.
Test Infrastructure by Layer
- Git-facing code: integration tests against local fixture repositories (bare origin + clones), see
GitServiceTest— no network access, hermetic git environment variables. - HTTP clients (Gitea): WireMock.
- Docker-dependent code: Testcontainers.
- The
Watcherand other schedulers never start their loops in tests; callpoll()/lifecycle methods directly.
