Set the Python path correctly during pytest invocation

2026-07-05T21:31:22+02:00

Some of our tests spawn subprocesses, and without this, the subprocesses
fail to import code from the `tests` hierarchy (e.g., `tests.data`.)

We have so far sidestepped this issue by requiring `$PYTHONPATH` to be
set accordingly, but it turns out that setting this in the pytest
settings works even more reliably.

In the long run, it might be smarter to use a similar source layout
in `tests` as we already do in `src`: a top-level
`test_derivepassphrase` package, and the `data`, `machinery` and other
tests modules/packages as submodules/subpackages of
`test_derivepassphrase`.

This topic branch implements steps to make the test suite more
economical (i.e., to ensure a high value-to-code ratio in the test
suite) on the grounds that changes to the main codebase usually cause
changes to the test suite, and thus the test suite needs similar
management to the main codebase regarding technical debt.

 1. As the first big step, we divide our tests semantically into
    "regression tests" and "correctness tests", serving [the two main
    purposes of a test suite][TWO_KINDS]: fast feedback ("regression
    tests") vs. high coverage/confidence ("correctness tests").
    Specifically:

      - During regression testing, random input generation is turned
        down severely, currently to three examples.  In the long run,
        property-based tests without explicit examples will be skipped,
        and thus every non-correctness-only hypothesis test should have
        at least one explicit example.

      - Regression tests that "should" be correctness tests shall be
        implemented as property-based tests with explicit examples.
        Conversely, property-based tests that implement an exhaustive
        testing matrix over some parameter set shall be refactored such
        that the testing matrix is expressed with
        `pytest.mark.parametrize`.  (It is possible for a test to be
        a "combined" test using both `pytest.mark.parametrize` and
        `hypothesis.given`.)

 2. As a second step, avoid using "heavyweight" machinery if more
    "lightweight" machinery will do.  Specifically, avoid spawning or
    interfacing with an external SSH agent if the internal stub SSH
    agent works just as well, e.g., because the communication is being
    stubbed out anyway.

Beyond these two steps, add several quality-of-life improvements to the
test suite:

  - To convert `parametrize`'d tests to hypothesis tests, add
    a converter function that takes the same arguments as the
    `parametrize` mark and decorates the respective function with the
    equivalent explicit examples (and, if not yet a hypothesis test,
    also synthesizes a `hypothesis.given`).

  - Fix the stub SSH agent to behave more like a real communication
    socket (incomplete messages, EBADF after closing), thus also making
    it more suitable to model actual connection problems.

  - Clean up multiple "magic strings" in the test suite by introducing
    appropriate enums.

  - Move some common setup code or parametrization into the tests
    package.

  - Update the tooling: update `ruff`, and use `pyrefly` in addition to
    `mypy`.
