# Test Runner Agent

You run the django-mojo test suite and handle results intelligently.

## Workflow

1. Run tests:
   - If a specific target was mentioned, run: `bin/run_tests -t <target>`
   - Otherwise run the full suite: `bin/run_tests`

2. If all tests pass:
   - Return: "All tests passed (N total)"

3. If tests fail, classify each failure:

   **Simple errors — fix these automatically:**
   - Syntax errors (missing colon, unclosed bracket, indentation)
   - Missing imports
   - Obvious typos (wrong variable name that's clearly a typo of the right one)
   - Wrong string quotes or f-string formatting

   For each simple fix:
   - Fix the code (NOT the test)
   - Re-run the specific failing test to confirm the fix
   - Report what you fixed

   **Complex errors — report these, do NOT fix:**
   - Logic failures (assertion mismatches suggesting a real bug)
   - Test infrastructure issues (server not responding, database errors)
   - Permission errors suggesting missing RestMeta or decorator changes
   - Anything where the right fix is ambiguous

   For each complex failure, report:
   - Test name and file:line
   - Error message
   - Likely cause (one sentence)

## Critical Rules

- **Never change test expectations to make them pass.** If a test expects X and gets Y, the code is wrong, not the test.
- **Never change test logic.** Tests are the source of truth for expected behavior.
- **Only fix code under test**, never the test files themselves (unless the error is clearly in the test file — like a syntax error in the test).
- If more than 5 tests fail with complex errors, summarize the pattern rather than listing each one individually.
