Problem

• test/cli/test/bun-test.test.ts takes 13.5 s on the x64-asan lane (build #104578) and 33 s on a local debug build. It spawns 100 bun test children one at a time, because runTest uses spawnSync.
• 62 of the 73 runTest calls never check the exit code. That hid two broken fixtures: %s calls a matcher that does not exist, and %f/%d compare floats with toBe.
• The default-timeout case races sleep(5005) against the 5000 ms timeout.

Fix

• runTest uses Bun.spawn, every call site awaits it, and the main describe is describe.concurrent. Cases and names are unchanged, so the other open PRs on this file rebase by adding await.
• The --timeout block comes first so that its 5 s case overlaps with the rest. The filter case builds its fixture inside the test, because a beforeAll hook is a barrier for the tests declared above it. Both timeout fixtures await a promise that never settles.
• Every runTest call passes expectExitCode, and a failed check prints the child's stderr. Cases with only not.toContain assertions also assert a line the run must print.
• Verified: bun bd test test/cli/test/bun-test.test.ts, 4 runs, 11.7 s to 11.9 s (104 tests). Before: 3 runs, 32.9 s to 33.6 s. The Notes explain why the first version of this PR was re-cut.

Background

• Under ASAN, bun test runs at most 5 concurrent tests (max_concurrency in src/options_types/context.rs). The file's wall time is max(5 s, child durations / 5) plus 2 s to load harness. On CI the children take about 85 ms, so the 5 s case is the floor.

Notes

Why this shape

The first version of this PR (8f93c5b) also merged same-fixture cases into shared spawns, switched stable outputs to inline snapshots, and changed runTest to return { stdout, stderr, snapshot, exitCode }. A self-review measured it against a concurrency-only variant:

• local debug ASAN: main 32.8 s, concurrency-only 11.4 s, full rewrite 9.0 s to 10.1 s
• CI x64-asan: main 13.5 s, full rewrite 5.3 s (build #104831); the concurrency-only variant is also bound by the 5 s default-timeout case
• open PRs that touch this file: 38. Merged onto the concurrency-only shape, 26 conflict on adjacent lines; onto the full rewrite, 31 conflict over about 4000 lines, and 17 of them call the old sync runTest.

The 2 s local gain of the rewrite did not pay for that, so the PR is re-cut to the small shape. #33704 (open, conflicting, 53 files) has a hunk for this file with the same conversion; this PR supersedes that hunk.

Fixture bugs found by the exit code checks

• check formatting for %s called expect(s).toBeType("string"), which does not exist. Every child test failed. It now calls toBeTypeOf.
• check formatting for %f and %d asserted expect(1.4 + 2.9).toBe(4.3), which fails in floating point. They now use toBeCloseTo.

Other changes

• The -t snapshot no longer rewrites the Ran ... line to a fixed count before comparing.
• The 30 ms case asserts (fail) timeout and the exact timed out after 30ms. message. It does not assert that the fast ok test passes: on the Windows 2019 x64 lane, ok exceeded 30 ms under 20 concurrent children (build #104816).
• path to a non-test.ts without ./ asserts the note: To treat the "index.ts" filter as a path hint.
• The stale comment about Segmentation fault with bun:test and timeouts #8069 (fixed by test: Fix segfault on timeout while awaiting #8076) is gone.

Timing

• Local debug ASAN, before: 33.63 s, 32.94 s, 33.05 s.
• Local debug ASAN, after: 11.90 s, 11.74 s, 11.67 s, 11.69 s. Sum of per-test durations about 44 s, so the file is bound by the 5-slot ASAN limit locally.

Status: the diff is ready for review. It was re-cut after a self-review (see the Notes in the PR body): the concurrency conversion alone gets the whole CI win, so the case merging and inline snapshots from the first version are gone. Cases and names are the same as on main.

How it was measured, on a local debug ASAN build (bun bd):

• before, bun bd test test/cli/test/bun-test.test.ts on main at f2fe7d3: 33.63 s, 32.94 s, 33.05 s (104 tests, 100 bun test children per run)
• after, same command on this branch: 11.90 s, 11.74 s, 11.67 s, 11.69 s (104 tests, 98 pass, 6 todo)
• CI x64-asan: 13.5 s on main (build #104578); the first version of this PR ran in 5.3 s (build #104831), bound by the 5 s default-timeout case, and this version has the same bound

The exit code checks found two broken fixtures (%s used a matcher that does not exist, %f/%d compared floats with toBe). Both are fixed in this PR.

[claude]

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. It's a large test-file rewrite (~1100 lines, 104 → 68 test cases with many merged into shared spawns and new inline snapshots), so a human pass over the case mapping in the Notes block would be worthwhile to confirm no coverage was dropped.

Checked: the new async runTest drains stdout/stderr concurrently with proc.exited and disposes the temp dir via using after the await; dropping AGENT: "0" is safe (bunEnv already sets AGENT: "false"); toHaveTestTimedOutAfter is still used in test-test.test.ts so not dead; the { timeout: 1 } annotation asserts the configured value, matching the --timeout 30 snapshot.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

This PR rewrites test/cli/test/bun-test.test.ts — a single test file, no production code. runTest becomes async (Bun.spawn + Promise.all on the three pipes), the top-level describe becomes describe.concurrent, and 36 separate bun test spawns are folded into shared spawns keyed by file name so each original assertion is still per-line identifiable. Every case now asserts reporter output first, then exitCode; stable outputs move to toMatchInlineSnapshot through normalizeBunSnapshot. The two timeout fixtures now await a never-settling promise instead of racing sleep against the deadline. The process.on('exit') describe is moved verbatim to the top of the concurrent block and rewired onto the shared runTest. The old createTest/tmpdirSync/rmSync helpers are replaced by tempDir + using.

Security risks

None. Test-only, spawns only bunExe() in temp dirs, no network, no auth/crypto surface.

Level of scrutiny

Medium-high because of the diff size and the fact that 36 test cases are merged. The REVIEW.md rule "never silently weaken, skip, or delete an existing test" applies directly. The PR description's Notes block provides a full old→new case mapping and I spot-checked several: the four module-system tests each get a distinct (pass) line asserted; the seven annotation-escaping tests each get a per-file regex via annotationFor plus a total count; the ten $variable tests become one 18-line inline snapshot. Assertions are strictly tighter than before (old tests often only did not.toContain with no exit-code check).

Other factors

• Verified the dropped AGENT: "0" in runTest's env spread is redundant — bunEnv in test/harness.ts:89 already sets AGENT: "false".
• toHaveTestTimedOutAfter is still referenced by test/js/bun/test/test-test.test.ts, so removing its two call sites here does not leave it dead.
• The exact-match timed out after 1ms annotation is safe: the --timeout 30 snapshot in the same PR shows the message reports the configured timeout, not elapsed time.
• The no-stack.test.ts regex now additionally requires %0A {6}at after ::; the author reports 8 clean local runs so bun evidently emits a frame for a thrown string.
• The author reports 8 passing runs on the debug build and documents behavior quirks the snapshots pin (%% after last placeholder, dropped char after unresolved $var).

I'm deferring rather than approving only because a 1100-line refactor that halves the test count is the kind of change a maintainer should skim the case mapping on, even though I found nothing wrong with it.

[claude]

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Because it restructures the file substantially — 104 tests consolidated into 68, runTest rewritten from sync to async, and many assertions replaced with inline snapshots — a human look to confirm the case-mapping preserves coverage would still be worthwhile. The head commit c64e2ff (30ms→1000ms --timeout budget) also hasn't reported CI yet; only 8f93c5b's Windows failure is on the timeline.

What was reviewed:

• Verified bunEnv already sets AGENT: "false", so dropping the explicit AGENT: "0" override is a no-op.
• toHaveTestTimedOutAfter (no longer used here) is still referenced from test/js/bun/test/test-test.test.ts, so no dead helper is left in harness.ts.
• Each concurrent runTest creates its own tempDir via using, and the one shared-cwd case (--tsconfig-override works) only reads — no cross-test state.
• Spot-checked the consolidated GitHub Actions annotation, .each placeholder, and $variable cases against the PR's mapping table; each old assertion has a corresponding line in the new snapshot or annotationFor check.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

This PR touches exactly one file, test/cli/test/bun-test.test.ts, with a ~1400-line diff. It rewrites the runTest helper from spawnSync to async Bun.spawn, wraps the top-level suite in describe.concurrent, moves the slow 5 s default-timeout and node:test cases to the front so they overlap with the rest, and consolidates groups of single-purpose spawns (module-system, GitHub Actions annotation, .each placeholder, $variable) into shared spawns whose output is asserted per-case. Every case now asserts reporter output first and exitCode last; stable outputs use normalizeBunSnapshot + toMatchInlineSnapshot. The old createTest/tmpdirSync/writeFileSync scaffolding is replaced with tempDir from harness. No production code is touched.

Security risks

None. This is a test-only refactor of the bun test CLI test suite. It spawns local bun test children in temp dirs; no auth, crypto, network, or untrusted-input handling is involved.

Level of scrutiny

Medium. It is test-only, so the blast radius of a mistake is CI signal, not user-facing behavior. But the diff is large and non-mechanical: 104 tests are consolidated into 68, several assertions are tightened (adding exit-code checks and inline snapshots), the timeout fixtures are rewritten to await a never-settling promise instead of racing sleep, and the whole suite goes concurrent. The PR description includes an explicit old→new case mapping which I spot-checked, and the assertions are strictly stronger than before (many old cases only did not.toContain with no exit-code check). Still, verifying that no coverage was silently dropped in the consolidation is exactly the kind of thing a human skim is good at.

Other factors

• CI: build #104816 on 8f93c5b failed on Windows 2019 x64 because the 30 ms --timeout fixture's fast test exceeded 30 ms under 20 concurrent children. c64e2ff raises that budget to 1000 ms with a comment explaining why. No CI status for c64e2ff has posted yet, so the Windows lane is not confirmed green on HEAD.
• Dropped AGENT: "0" from the spawn env is safe — bunEnv in test/harness.ts already sets AGENT: "false".
• toHaveTestTimedOutAfter is no longer used here but remains used in test-test.test.ts, so the harness matcher is not dead.
• The two runTest calls sharing one tempDir in --tsconfig-override works run under Promise.all; both only read from the dir, so there is no interference.
• Related open PRs (#33704, #35131, #35094, #34869) will need trivial rebasing onto the async runTest signature, which the description already flags.

LGTM — test-only speedup that also tightens assertions.

Checked: every runTest call site converted to await with an expectExitCode, and each expected code matches the fixture's pass/fail intent. The three fixture fixes (toBeTypeOf, two toBeCloseTo) are the correct matchers. The new timeout fixture awaits a never-settling promise, so nothing races the timer, and await using proc disposes before the finally rmSync. Removed imports (beforeAll, tempDirWithFiles) and the makeTest pass parameter are all dead after the rewrite; spawnSync is still used by the --tsconfig-override cases.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

Single-file, test-only change to test/cli/test/bun-test.test.ts. runTest moves from spawnSync to async Bun.spawn + Promise.all on stderr/exited, the top-level describe becomes describe.concurrent, and every call site adds await + expectExitCode. The --timeout block is moved first so its 5 s case overlaps with the rest; its fixtures now hang on new Promise(() => {}) instead of racing sleep against the timer. The filter case's beforeAll (a barrier under describe.concurrent) is inlined. Three previously-silent fixture bugs surfaced by the new exit-code checks are fixed (toBeType→toBeTypeOf, two float toBe→toBeCloseTo). Several tests that only had not.toContain assertions gain a positive assertion, and two error-message checks are tightened to exact strings.

Security risks

None. This touches only a test file; no runtime, native, or user-facing code paths.

Level of scrutiny

Moderate. The diff is ~400 lines but overwhelmingly mechanical (() => { → async () => {, add await, add expectExitCode). The non-mechanical pieces — the timeout-fixture rewrite, the filter-test inlining, the snapshot normalizer dropping the Ran ... rewrite, and the await using + finally cleanup ordering — are each small, self-contained, and match the reasoning in the PR body. Each test still uses its own temp dir via createTest/tmpdirSync, so concurrency is isolation-safe.

Other factors

Both CodeRabbit threads are resolved: the control test is now synchronous (commit 9e3bf54), and the exit-code-before-output ordering is intentionally kept in the helper with the full stderr embedded in the failure message. The author verified 4 local runs (11.7–11.9 s vs 32.9–33.6 s before) and cited CI build numbers. No production code is touched, so CI passing on this file is sufficient verification.
