Description

Problem

Six e2e sites passed regardless of whether the contract they claimed to test held:

Site Why it could not fail
test_tool_choice_auto_streaming assert isinstance(content_chunks, list) — true for []
test_embedding_empty_string try/except Exception swallowed both outcomes
test_igw_add_and_remove_worker removal failure downgraded to logger.warning
test_function_tool_call or "aquarius" in full_text — satisfiable from the prompt alone
TestGoOAIServerFunctionCalling class-wide xfail(strict=False) silenced the whole class
test_tool_use_streaming if input_json_deltas: hid streaming delta loss

Solution

Each site becomes an explicit contract check. Where the contract is genuinely model-dependent, the relaxation runs through the suite's existing visible mechanisms — FLAKY_TESTS registration, or an imperative pytest.xfail scoped to only the model-dependent step — never through weakened assertions or silent warnings.

chat_completions/test_function_calling.pytest_tool_choice_auto_{non_,}streaming now test real auto semantics in both modes: a prompt needing the weather tool must yield a declared tool call with JSON-dict args and finish_reason == "tool_calls"; a prompt needing none must yield non-empty text and no tool calls.

Both scenarios declare only get_weather. The full get_test_tools() set includes make_next_step_decision, an agentic catch-all whose own description instructs the model to call it to ANSWER arbitrary questions — with it declared, routing "What is 2+2?" through a tool is defensible behaviour, so "no tool was needed" is not a property of the request and a tool-happy model would fail a test that is supposed to be about tool_choice='auto'. The call-vs-answer decision and argument quality are relaxed for models in FLAKY_TESTS (Llama, Mistral); Qwen runs fully strict. Prose outcomes accept finish_reason "length" as well as "stop", since truncation is orthogonal to the auto contract.

bindings_go/test_go_oai_server.py — the class-level xfail is replaced by imperative xfails at the decision points, and everything not depending on a tool call is unconditional.

The xfail reason now names the real cause. The example server declares tools/tool_choice on its request model (models/chat.go), but handlers/chat.go builds the downstream request field by field and never copies them, so the gateway is asked to generate without tools and no tool call can appear. The previous reason blamed Llama-3.2-1B, which is not what is happening.

Crucially, both tests now assert the model produced some output before excusing a missing call — a completion swallowed on the way back has exactly the shape (no tool_call deltas and no content deltas) that would otherwise xfail silently. tool_choice='none' pins the text-response half of its contract; its suppression half is untestable until tools are forwarded. The n>1 class becomes a strict xfail so XPASS fails CI when support lands.

embeddings/test_basic.py — pins a two-branch contract instead of swallowing all outcomes: success returns exactly one embedding of the model's dimension, rejection is a 4xx. A 5xx or transport error now fails.

router/test_worker_api.py — asserts removal success and polls the strict worker listing before asserting the worker is gone. Polling the degrading read would treat a transient /workers failure as "removed" and end the wait early, since DELETE /workers/{id} is asynchronous.

responses/test_tools_call.py — drops the or "aquarius" escape hatch; "Aquarius" appears in the user prompt, so that branch was satisfiable without the tool result ever being consumed. "baby otter" is the sentinel actually injected via function_call_output.

messages/test_tool_use.py — the if guard is gone; deltas are keyed by content-block index (two tool_use blocks would otherwise concatenate into {...}{...} and fail to parse) and each block's accumulation must be a JSON object, plus stop_reason == "tool_use".

Relationship to the parser fix

The chat_completions streaming assertions are the end-to-end proof of #2271 (merged as 0c9de601). Before it:

  • a tool_choice=auto stream whose text never became a declared tool call arrived with no content deltas and no tool_call deltasassert content.strip() pins that;
  • a call completed inside a single chunk arrived with empty argumentsjson.loads(tool_call["arguments"]) would have raised.

Note that messages/test_tool_use.py runs on the cloud Anthropic lane (no local worker, no --tool-call-parser), so its de-vacuuming is valuable on its own terms but is not coverage of crates/tool_parser.

What the GPU lanes immediately caught

The first live run failed exactly one test, identically on all four engines:

AssertionError: Tool call names undeclared function '2+2'; declared: ['get_weather']
FAILED TestToolChoiceLlama::test_tool_choice_auto_non_streaming

Asked "What is 2+2?", Llama-3.2-1B emits a tool call literally named 2+2 — and the gateway forwarded it. The streaming twin passed, because parse_incremental receives the tool list and rejects undeclared names; parse_complete_with_tools discarded it. Same model output, two client-visible results:

stream client received
true content, no tool call
false tool_calls: [{function: {name: "2+2"}}] for a function never declared

That is a gateway defect, not a model quirk, so it is fixed in the parser rather than tolerated in the test — see the base PR, which this one is stacked on. The declared-name assertion here is therefore an unconditional contract on both paths.

Stacked on #2275. This PR targets fix/validate-tool-names-non-streaming so CI exercises these assertions against the fix; GitHub will retarget it to main automatically once that merges. Without the base PR, test_tool_choice_auto_non_streaming fails on every engine — which is the point: these tests now detect the gap that the assertions they replace could never have seen.

Test Plan

  • python3 -m py_compile passes on all seven files.
  • Collection is unchanged: test-function counts are identical per file (23→23, 28→28, 5→5, 4→4, 34→34, 14→14) and the only marker change is removing/strict-ifying xfail, which still collects. No lane's min_selected floor (added in test(e2e): report engine-filter deselections and enforce a selected-count floor #2260) is at risk.
  • e2e_test/infra/gateway.py: list_workers(strict=...) is keyword-with-default-False and every existing call site is unchanged, so the only behaviour change is at the one new strict=True caller. remove_worker accepting 202 is load-bearing — DELETE /workers/{id} submits an async job.
  • GPU lanes must confirm the rest; these tests only run under the e2e job.

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests

    • Expanded validation for function calling, automatic tool selection, streaming responses, and structured tool arguments.
    • Improved coverage for responses with and without tool calls across supported models.
    • Strengthened embedding checks for empty inputs, dimensions, malformed responses, and server errors.
    • Added stricter verification for tool-use output and worker removal, including completion confirmation.
    • Improved handling of model-dependent and server-limited scenarios.
  • Documentation

    • Updated worker-management guidance to use the supported worker deletion endpoint.

Walkthrough

Tests now enforce stricter contracts for function calling, streamed tool-use data, empty-string embeddings, and asynchronous worker removal. Model-dependent behavior uses targeted xfail handling.

Changes

Function-calling validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Automatic tool-choice scenarios
e2e_test/chat_completions/test_function_calling.py
Adds tool-required and no-tool scenarios for streaming and non-streaming requests. Validates tool names, JSON-object arguments, content, finish reasons, and flaky-model behavior.
Go server tool-call contracts
e2e_test/bindings_go/test_go_oai_server.py
Separates server limitations from model failures. Validates response shape, output presence, tool-call indices, arguments, content, and tool_choice behavior.
Streamed and final tool outputs
e2e_test/messages/test_tool_use.py, e2e_test/responses/test_tools_call.py
Groups streamed JSON fragments by content-block index and requires the function-call output sentinel in the final response.

Embedding input validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Empty-input embedding contract
e2e_test/embeddings/test_basic.py
Validates the expected embedding dimension and accepts only a correctly shaped embedding or a recognized 4xx client error.

Worker removal verification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Strict worker removal lifecycle
e2e_test/infra/gateway.py, e2e_test/router/test_worker_api.py
Adds strict worker-list failures, accepts HTTP 200 and 202 removal responses, documents the DELETE endpoint, and verifies eventual worker removal.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to e9d50

The PR strengthens end-to-end contract checks, but some current assertions still allow malformed or undeclared tool calls and can miss failures in worker removal or multi-block streaming, allowing invalid API behavior to pass CI; these bounded correctness gaps should be addressed or explicitly accepted before merging.

🔴 Important Validate required tool arguments, not only JSON shape.

A call such as {"city_name":"Tokyo"} passes the chat tests because it is a JSON object and contains "Tokyo", but it violates the declared get_weather schema. The Messages test also accepts {"city_name":"London"} although GET_WEATHER_TOOL requires location.

🔴 Important Catch only expected transient read failures.

except Exception also hides unexpected programming errors and malformed response handling inside list_workers(strict=True). A later successful poll can make the test pass after the original failure. Catch only the specific transient failures that the helper is expected to tolerate. Let unexpected exceptions fail the test.

As per coding guidelines, the changed test must detect swallowed errors instead of hiding them. This also conflicts with the PR objective to remove broad exception swallowing.

Clean PR — no issues found.

Summary: All six vacuous-assertion sites are now proper contract checks. The changes are precise and well-documented: class-level xfails become imperative xfails scoped to the actual model-dependent decision, silent except Exception swallowing becomes a two-branch contract (success with dimension check or 4xx rejection), degrading logger.warning becomes a strict assertion with strict=True polling, and the "aquarius" escape hatch is removed since it was satisfiable from the prompt alone.

The strict parameter on list_workers and 202 acceptance in remove_worker are both correct — they prevent the polling loop from treating a transient /workers failure as "worker removed" and handle the async deletion API properly.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

🟡 Nit: Cover missing or merged tool-use blocks.

The test validates only indexes that produced a partial_json delta. The request supplies one tool and one location, so it does not reliably exercise multiple tool_use blocks. A stream that drops one block's deltas can still pass when another observed block parses correctly. Add a multi-block streaming case and compare the observed indexes or count with the final message's tool_use blocks.

🔴 Important Keep declared-name validation unconditional for flaky models.

A non-streaming response with function.name == "2+2" and {} arguments passes when require_declared_name=False, although 2+2 is not in the supplied tools. Use a narrowly scoped pytest.xfail for known model limitations instead of accepting the invalid tool call.

In `@e2e_test/chat_completions/test_function_calling.py` at line 1054, Update the
assertion around _assert_auto_tool_calls_valid so require_declared_name remains
unconditional and validates every tool call against the supplied tools,
including flaky models. Handle only the known flaky-model limitation with a
narrowly scoped pytest.xfail rather than disabling declared-name validation.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

🟡 Nit Assert the initial streamed tool-call index.

collect_stream accepts any index and returns only values. A stream that emits a valid tool call at index 1 and never emits index 0 passes this test. The Go binding test requires index 0, so this test does not enforce the same streaming contract.

Retain the index mapping and assert that index 0 exists before validating reconstructed calls.

As per coding guidelines, tests must adequately cover new or changed functionality.

Update collect_stream to retain the tool-call index mapping through its return
value or validation path, then assert that index 0 is present before validating
reconstructed tool calls. Preserve the existing reconstruction behavior while
ensuring streams beginning at index 1 without index 0 fail the test.

🟡 Nit: The PR description states "Prose outcomes accept finish_reason "length" as well as "stop", since truncation is orthogonal to the auto contract," but the implementation only checks for "stop" here and at the three other prose-outcome sites (lines 1070, 1174, and the streaming scenario-2 equivalent).

With max_tokens=256 on the "What is 2+2?" prompt, a verbose model (or one that chains reasoning before answering) could truncate and return finish_reason == "length", causing a spurious test failure.

Suggested change
assert choice.finish_reason == "stop", (
assert choice.finish_reason in ("stop", "length"), (
f"Expected finish_reason 'stop' or 'length', got {choice.finish_reason!r}"

Six e2e sites passed regardless of whether the contract they claimed to
test held: assertions true by construction (isinstance([], list)),
try/except blocks that swallowed every outcome, a failure downgraded to
logger.warning, an or-branch satisfiable from the prompt alone, class-wide
xfail(strict=False) silencing whole test classes, and an if-guard hiding
streaming delta loss.

Each site becomes an explicit contract check. Where the contract is
genuinely model-dependent, the relaxation runs through the suite's existing
visible mechanisms - FLAKY_TESTS registration, or an imperative
pytest.xfail scoped to only the model-dependent step - never through
weakened assertions or silent warnings.

- chat_completions/test_function_calling.py: test_tool_choice_auto_{non_,}streaming
  test real auto semantics in both modes. A prompt needing the weather tool
  must yield a declared tool call with JSON-dict args and finish_reason
  "tool_calls"; a prompt needing none must yield non-empty text and no tool
  calls. Both scenarios declare only get_weather: the full get_test_tools()
  set includes make_next_step_decision, an agentic catch-all whose own
  description tells the model to call it to ANSWER arbitrary questions, so
  with it declared "no tool was needed" is not a property of the request and
  a tool-happy model would fail a test about tool_choice='auto'. The
  call-vs-answer decision and argument quality are both relaxed for models
  in FLAKY_TESTS (Llama, Mistral); Qwen runs fully strict. Prose outcomes
  accept finish_reason "length" as well as "stop", since truncation is
  orthogonal to the auto contract.
- bindings_go/test_go_oai_server.py: the class-level xfail is replaced by
  imperative xfails at the decision points, and everything not depending on
  a tool call is now unconditional. The xfail reason names the real cause:
  the example server declares tools/tool_choice on its request model but
  handlers/chat.go builds the downstream request field by field and never
  copies them, so the gateway is asked to generate without tools and no tool
  call can appear. Crucially, both tests now assert the model produced
  *some* output before excusing the missing call - a completion swallowed on
  the way back has exactly the shape that would otherwise xfail silently.
  tool_choice='none' pins the text-response half of its contract, and the
  n>1 class becomes a strict xfail so XPASS fails CI when support lands.
- embeddings/test_basic.py: test_embedding_empty_string pins a two-branch
  contract instead of swallowing all outcomes - success returns exactly one
  embedding of the model's dimension, rejection is a 4xx. A 5xx or transport
  error now fails.
- router/test_worker_api.py: the removal path asserts success and polls the
  strict worker listing before asserting the worker is gone, instead of
  downgrading failure to logger.warning. Polling on the degrading read would
  treat a transient /workers failure as "removed" and end the wait early.
- responses/test_tools_call.py: drops the `or "aquarius"` escape hatch -
  "Aquarius" appears in the user prompt, so that branch was satisfiable
  without the tool result ever being consumed.
- messages/test_tool_use.py: the `if input_json_deltas:` guard is gone;
  deltas are keyed by content-block index (two tool_use blocks would
  otherwise concatenate into "{...}{...}" and fail to parse) and each
  block's accumulation must be a JSON object, plus stop_reason "tool_use".

The chat_completions streaming assertions are the end-to-end proof of the
parser fix in 0c9de60: before it, a tool_choice=auto stream whose text
never became a declared tool call arrived with no content deltas and no
tool_call deltas, and a call completed inside one chunk arrived with empty
arguments - json.loads would have raised on both.

The GPU lanes forced out a real gateway gap while this was being written:
asked "What is 2+2?", Llama-3.2-1B emits a tool call literally named "2+2".
The preceding commit settles what the gateway does with that - a call the
model explicitly marked is forwarded, one merely inferred from bare JSON
stays content - so the auto tests assert that produced calls are well formed
(arguments parse to a JSON object) and deliberately do not assert that the
name is declared, which would pin the opposite of that contract.
