FOCAS test fixture
Coverage map + gap inventory for the FANUC FOCAS2 CNC driver.
TL;DR: there is no integration fixture. Every test uses a
FakeFocasClient injected via IFocasClientFactory. Fanuc's FOCAS library
(Fwlib32.dll) is closed-source proprietary with no public simulator;
CNC-side behavior is trusted from field deployments.
What the fixture is
Nothing at the integration layer.
tests/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.FOCAS.Tests/ is unit-only. The driver ships
as Tier C (process-isolated) per docs/v2/driver-stability.md because the
FANUC DLL has known crash modes; tests can't replicate those in-process.
What it actually covers (unit only)
FocasCapabilityTests— data-type mapping (PMC bit / word / float, macro variable types, parameter types)FocasCapabilityMatrixTests— per-CNC-series range validation (macro / parameter / PMC letter + number) across 16i / 0i-D / 0i-F / 30i / PowerMotion. Seedocs/v2/focas-version-matrix.mdfor the authoritative matrix. 46 theory cases lock every documented range boundary — widening a range without updating the doc fails a test.FocasReadWriteTests— read + write against the fake, FOCAS native status → OPC UA StatusCode mappingFocasScaffoldingTests—IDriverlifecycle + multi-device routingFocasPmcBitRmwTests— PMC bit read-modify-write synchronization (per-byteSemaphoreSlim, mirrors the AB / Modbus pattern from #181)FwlibNativeHelperTests—Focas32.dll→Fwlib32.dllbridge validation- P/Invoke signature validation
Capability surfaces whose contract is verified: IDriver, IReadable,
IWritable, ITagDiscovery, ISubscribable, IHostConnectivityProbe,
IPerCallHostResolver.
Pre-flight validation runs in FocasDriver.InitializeAsync — configs
referencing out-of-range addresses fail at load time with a diagnostic
message naming the CNC series + documented limit. This closes the
cheap half of the hardware-free stability gap; Tier-C process
isolation (task #220) closes the expensive half — see
docs/v2/implementation/focas-isolation-plan.md.
What it does NOT cover
1. FOCAS wire traffic
No FOCAS TCP frame is sent. Fwlib32.dll's TCP-to-FANUC-gateway exchange is
closed-source; the driver trusts the P/Invoke layer per #193. Real CNC
correctness is trusted from field deployments.
2. Alarm / parameter-change callbacks
FOCAS has no push model — the driver polls via the shared PollGroupEngine.
There are no CNC-initiated callbacks to test; the absence is by design.
3. Macro / ladder variable types
FANUC has CNC-specific extensions (macro variables #100-#999, system
variables #1000-#5000, PMC timers / counters / keep-relays) whose
per-address semantics differ across 0i-F / 30i / 31i / 32i Series. Driver
covers the common address shapes; per-model quirks are not stressed.
4. Model-specific behavior
- Alarm retention across power cycles (model-specific CNC behavior)
- Parameter range enforcement (CNC rejects out-of-range writes)
- MTB (machine tool builder) custom screens that expose non-standard data
5. Tier-C process isolation behavior
Per driver-stability.md, FOCAS should run process-isolated because
Fwlib32.dll has documented crash modes. The test suite runs in-process +
only exercises the happy path + mapped error codes — a native access
violation from the DLL would take the test host down. The process-isolation
path (similar to Galaxy's out-of-process Host) has been scoped but not
implemented.
When to trust FOCAS tests, when to reach for a rig
| Question | Unit tests | Real CNC |
|---|---|---|
"Does PMC address R100.3 route to the right bit?" |
yes | yes |
| "Does the FANUC status → OPC UA StatusCode map cover every documented code?" | yes (contract) | yes |
| "Does a real read against a 30i Series return correct bytes?" | no | yes (required) |
"Does Fwlib32.dll crash on concurrent reads?" |
no | yes (stress) |
| "Do macro variables round-trip across power cycles?" | no | yes (required) |
Follow-up candidates
- Nothing public — Fanuc's FOCAS Developer Kit ships an emulator DLL but it's under NDA + tied to licensed dev-kit installations; can't redistribute for CI.
- Lab rig — used FANUC 0i-F simulator controller (or a retired machine tool) on a dedicated network; only path that covers real CNC behavior.
- Process isolation first — before trusting FOCAS in production at scale, shipping the Tier-C out-of-process Host architecture (similar to Galaxy) is higher value than a CI simulator.
