This adds 53 new tests for the CLI module, covering: - Basic command functionality (detect, detect-file, fence, evaluate, version) - Input validation and edge cases (empty content, unicode, special chars) - Error handling (missing files, invalid options) - JSON output format validation - Configuration file loading - Security-relevant edge cases (XSS-like, SQL injection-like payloads) - Shorthand option flags - Content type and trust level parameter handling The CLI was previously untested, which is a significant gap since it's a user-facing entry point that handles external input. These tests ensure proper input validation, graceful error handling, and correct integration with the detection pipeline. All tests use the existing pytest patterns and fixtures from the repository.

In `@tests/unit/test_cli.py`:
- Around line 50-59: The assertion result.stdout is not None in
test_detect_benign_content is a no-op; change it to assert something meaningful
about runner.invoke output: after calling runner.invoke(app, [...]) in
test_detect_benign_content, assert result.exit_code == 0 and then assert either
result.stdout != "" (non-empty) or that result.stdout contains an expected
keyword or phrase produced by the CLI (e.g., "safe", "benign", or whatever the
detect command returns) so the test actually verifies the command output.
- Around line 106-128: The test function
test_detect_json_output_includes_matches currently has conditional guards that
let it pass silently; update it to assert unconditionally that the detection
flagged the malicious input by replacing the "if not output['is_safe']" guard
with assert output["is_safe"] is False (or assert not output["is_safe"]) and
replace the "if len(output['matches']) > 0" guard with assert
len(output["matches"]) > 0, then keep the existing checks that the first match
contains "attack_type", "confidence", "pattern", and "matched_text" so the test
fails if no matches or required fields are present (locate these changes in
test_detect_json_output_includes_matches where result = runner.invoke(app, ...)

8-23: Unused imports:Mock,patch,MagicMock,Config,RiskLevel.None of these are referenced anywhere in the file. The
unittest.mockimports suggest mocking was intended but never implemented — these tests invoke the real pipeline end-to-end, making them integration tests rather than unit tests. Consider either removing the unused imports or actually mocking the pipeline to isolate CLI behavior and speed up the suite.♻️ Proposed cleanup
import json import pytest from pathlib import Path -from unittest.mock import Mock, patch, MagicMock from typer.testing import CliRunner # Import CLI if dependencies are available try: from prompt_shield.cli import app, _get_pipeline, HAS_CLI_DEPS SKIP_CLI_TESTS = not HAS_CLI_DEPS except ImportError: SKIP_CLI_TESTS = True app = None -from prompt_shield import Config -from prompt_shield.types import RiskLevel
365-441: Evaluate tests run the full evaluation pipeline — consider mocking or marking as slow.Tests like
test_evaluate_defaultandtest_evaluate_all_suiteexecute the real evaluation pipeline, which may include hundreds of test cases. This could make the test suite unexpectedly slow in CI. Consider either mocking the evaluation logic to test only CLI wiring, or marking these with@pytest.mark.slowso they can be excluded from fast feedback loops.
203-212: Usetmp_pathfixture instead of hardcoded/tmppaths.Lines 207, 234, and 482 use hardcoded
/tmp/...paths for nonexistent files. This is non-portable (Windows) and flagged by Ruff (S108). Since these tests intentionally reference nonexistent files, construct the path from thetmp_pathfixture instead:- def test_detect_with_nonexistent_config(self): + def test_detect_with_nonexistent_config(self, tmp_path): """Should use default config when config file doesn't exist.""" result = runner.invoke(app, [ "detect", - "--config", "/tmp/nonexistent_config_xyz.json", + "--config", str(tmp_path / "nonexistent_config_xyz.json"), "Test content" ])Apply the same pattern at lines 234 and 482.

result.stdout is not None is always true — assertion is a no-op.
CliRunner.invoke() always returns a string for stdout, so this assertion can never fail. Assert something more meaningful about the output, e.g. that it's non-empty or contains an expected keyword.

Test can pass without asserting anything meaningful.
The nested if not output["is_safe"] (line 118) and if len(output["matches"]) > 0 (line 122) guards mean this test silently passes when the detection engine considers the content safe or returns no matches. For a test titled "should include detection matches for malicious content," the assertions should be unconditional or at minimum assert that the content was flagged.
🔧 Proposed fix — make assertions unconditional
- # Should have matches for this clearly malicious content
- if not output["is_safe"]:
- assert "matches" in output
- assert isinstance(output["matches"], list)
-
- if len(output["matches"]) > 0:
- match = output["matches"][0]
- assert "attack_type" in match
- assert "confidence" in match
- assert "pattern" in match
- assert "matched_text" in match
+ # This content should be flagged as malicious
+ assert not output["is_safe"], "Expected malicious content to be flagged"
