Exact native inventory
Rust testing
The Rust crate owns 38 native VanillaTest cases. Node and Rust interoperability remains a separate two-case gate so neither count inflates the other.

VanillaTest owns the native result
[dev-dependencies]
vanilla-test = "=2.1.0"This is the crate's sole development dependency and it has zero transitive dependencies. The crate has no runtime or build dependencies.
cargo test --manifest-path rust/node-ipc/Cargo.toml --test vanillaThe test binary uses harness = false; VanillaTest owns registration, exact counts, failures, and the final process status.
What the 38 cases cover
30 portable core cases
- JSON values, escapes, nesting, numbers, and failures
- Event envelopes and exact framing
- Raw, Fast, Guarded, and Assured profiles
- Limits, error codes, partial reads, and partial writes
- In-memory
Connectionbehavior
8 native transport cases
- TCP framed and raw round trips
- UDP framed, raw, and peer-isolated fragmentation
- Unix stream or Windows named-pipe framed and raw round trips
- Platform-local naming, ownership, cleanup, and exact rebind
Native platform matrix
| Platform | Runtime transport evidence | Local primitive |
|---|---|---|
| Linux | 38 native cases, including TCP, UDP, and local runtime | Unix-domain socket |
| macOS | 38 native cases, including TCP, UDP, and local runtime | Unix-domain socket |
| Windows | 38 native cases with bounded child supervision and rebind checks | Windows named pipe |
The workflow result is pass/fail authority. This page describes the required inventory; it does not turn an absent or failed CI lane into a pass.
Separate Node ↔ Rust gate
node rust/node-ipc/interop/vanilla-test.jsTwo JavaScript VanillaTest cases validate five sequential framed messages with a 17-byte payload in each direction: Node client → Rust server and Rust client → Node server. Both peers validate every response and final frame count, then the suite proves no peer process remains.
Read the exact interoperability contract →Release checks around correctness
- Exact Rust 1.85 toolchain.
rustfmt, all-target check, and strict Clippy with warnings denied.- Rust documentation with warnings denied.
- Zero runtime/build dependency tree and exact sole development dependency.
- crates.io package dry run, expected file inventory, and extracted-package native suite.
- Native Windows, Linux, and macOS runtime evidence before publication.
Coverage boundary
Node V8 coverage does not measure Rust.
The hosted V8 report covers the Node.js implementation only. No Rust coverage percentage is claimed. Rust evidence is the exact native case inventory, platform execution, interoperability checks, compiler lints, documentation checks, and packaged-crate verification.
The 14.0.0 test scope is native. There is no browser or WASM suite.
