Priority: ➖ Normal Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to This change adds realtime test infrastructure and specification-derived tests, and SDK runtime behaviour is unchanged by default. The open items affect only test reliability and documentation. The main one is that some tests will start failing when known library bugs are fixed. These items can be fixed before or shortly after merge. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to The new hooks require an explicit client configuration. Clients that do not opt in continue to use the standard WebSocket connector and clock. The reviewed changes do not establish a new security exposure, but some protocol and recovery behavior remains unverified. Retained concerns Security review detailsSecurity Blast Radius

In `@test/uts/realtime/unit/auth/connection_auth_test.py`:
- Line 62: Replace the monotonic timestamp comparison in the connection-auth
test with an event sequence: declare an order list, append callback and
connection-attempt markers at their respective points, and assert the callback
marker precedes the attempt marker. Remove the timestamp variables and their
nonlocal declarations.
In `@test/uts/realtime/unit/channels/channel_attach_test.py`:
- Around line 316-319: Assign the `on_message_from_client` recorder to
`mock_ws.on_message_from_client` before creating the client, so the RTL4i test
records any ATTACH sent while the connection is CONNECTING and its empty-list
assertion can detect it.
In `@test/uts/realtime/unit/channels/channel_server_initiated_detach_test.py`:
- Around line 258-267: Update the test containing the channel_state_changes and
attach_future assertions to mark it with `@deviation` and assert the RTL13b
outcome: the SUSPENDED state change has a reason with code 90198, and the
pending attach raises AblyException. Remove the assertions that lock in a
missing reason and TypeError; add the required imports.
In `@test/uts/realtime/unit/connection/backoff_jitter_test.py`:
- Around line 123-129: Reduce sample_count in the retry-delay sampling test from
40 to a value that allows all samples to be collected before
CONNECTION_STATE_TTL expires; keep retry_timeout and the existing jitter
assertions unchanged.
In `@test/uts/realtime/unit/connection/heartbeat_test.py`:
- Around line 44-46: Update WITHIN_IDLE_TIMEOUT in the heartbeat tests from 0.4
to 0.6 times IDLE_TIMEOUT, so each wait stays below the timeout while two waits
exceed it; adjust the accompanying comment to reflect this behavior.
In `@test/uts/realtime/unit/presence/realtime_presence_enter_test.py`:
- Around line 506-507: Update the `channel.attach()` expectation in this test to
accept either `TypeError` or `AblyException`, so a corrected library error does
not fail the test.
In `@test/uts/spec-inconsistencies.md`:
- Line 724: Update the TTL fixture count in the “5000 ms connectionStateTtl”
heading in spec-inconsistencies.md from three to four, matching the four listed
test cases: RTN25, RTN14e, RTL6c4, and RTN7e.

…tions WebSocketTransport reads TestOptions.websocket_connect and calls it in place of the websockets library's connect, leaving URL construction, the host fallback loop, frame decoding and the connection state machine in the path. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The transport, the channel and the connection manager take their readings of the time and schedule every delayed callback through the clock, so a test which supplies one drives the idle timeout, the suspend timer and the retry timers without waiting for them. test/uts/helpers/clock.py is the fake the derived realtime tests advance.

The mock serves the connect callable a client is given through test options, leaving the read loop, frame decoding, the idle timer and the connection state machine in the path. Frames are encoded to match the protocol the connection negotiated, so a derived test only handles msgpack where it is the subject. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
RTC5, RTC6 and RTC9 proxy to their REST counterparts, so each is covered by one test driving a realtime client through the HTTP mock rather than by repeating the REST suite against a second client type. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Connection#id and Connection#key have no counterpart here, so the tests read the values through the connection manager and the missing accessors are recorded as a deviation rather than skipping the lifecycle coverage they carry. The mock gains a status code for the 8xxxx connection errors, whose status the specification's formula puts outside the HTTP range, and a wait for the next entry into a connection state rather than the one it already holds. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Retry backoff, jitter and the retry interval a state change reports have no counterpart here, so RTB1 is carried as gated tests measuring the interval through the fake clock, whose notional time makes the delay exact. The mock gains a wait for a channel state and a poll for a condition no state captures, since a connection reports CONNECTING before the attempt behind it has been scheduled. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
A detach requested while the connection is not CONNECTED never returns, as does set_options on an attached channel, so the tests covering those bound their wait and fail rather than hanging the suite. The mock gains the channel protocol messages, the ordered-subsequence check the specifications use for state histories, and a CONNECTED which leaves the idle timer unscheduled for tests driving time. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
A publish is resolved by the server's acknowledgement, so the tests answer each message the client sends; the specifications elide that await, and the two which ask for no acknowledgement drive the publish as a task instead. Split across two files along the seam between publishing and the fate of a message already on the wire. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Registering one listener for two events and then removing it raises, so each test which subscribes to several names uses a separate function per name. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The channel properties the specifications read have no public accessor, so the tests reach the serials directly and the missing accessors are recorded as a deviation, keeping the serial behaviour itself covered. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
A connection-level ERROR reaches FAILED without going through the notification which propagates to channels, so the tests covering RTL3a keep the specified assertion and are gated. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Presence messages carry an explicit member id, because an entry which arrives without one is given a fabricated id that reads as synthesized and sends the newness comparison down its timestamp branch. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The delta tests carry a vcdiff decoder which validates the base payload it is given, so a message only arrives when the base the channel stored was the right one and none of them can pass without exercising the decode. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every presence message carries an explicit member id, since one without is given a fabricated id which reads as synthesized and sends the newness comparison down its timestamp branch rather than the serial branch under test. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reaching a suspended channel means suspending the connection carrying it, so these tests drive the fake clock past the connection state ttl rather than dropping the transport, which leaves the channel attached. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The idle timer measures against the wall clock while scheduling through the timer seam, so the heartbeat tests run on real time with a small idle interval from the connection details rather than driving the fake clock. The connectivity check the fallback path performs is a synchronous request the client's HTTP layer never sees, so those tests answer it in process. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The per-area files each batch wrote are merged into deviations.md, grouped by root cause so that the tests failing for one reason read as one entry, and a claim which was investigated and found not to be a defect is kept alongside them so it is not raised again. The UTS Spec Errors section gains the realtime faults, among them a specification whose own test cannot detect the behaviour it targets.

test/uts/deviations.mdrecords every one under the four standing headings. The 181 gated tests recording SDK non-compliance reduce to 65 distinct root causes, ranked in a Candidate issues section. The sharpest:DISCONNECTEDwith no fallback hosts strands the client: no state change, no retry, still believing it is connected to a closed socket.on_errorcallsenact_state_changeinstead ofnotify_state(connectionmanager.py), skippingcancel_transition_timer,fail_queued_messagesand_propagate_connection_interruption. One line behind both RTL3a and RTN7e.detach()never returns when the connection is notCONNECTED.set_options()never returns on an attached channel, for want of one_request_state(ATTACHING).EventEmitterkeys its wrapper registry on the listener alone, so removal raisesKeyErrorand then silently no-ops. Reproducible in six lines with no Ably connection.Two caveats worth reading before merge, both recorded in the docs: RTP18a's fixture cannot discriminate compliant from non-compliant behaviour, so its test passes against an SDK that does not implement the point — the finding is recorded as a deviation with no test; and four further tests pass for the wrong reason and are annotated at the site.
Upstream
The UTS Spec Errors section of
test/uts/deviations.mdgains the realtime faults: 25 claims, 14 confirmed as written, 11 confirmed with the scope or diagnosis corrected, none withdrawn, plus 7 found while checking. All are filed upstream: #542, #543, #544, #545 and #546, plus comments on #527, #532 and #466. Highest value to upstream is the mock contract gap —active_connectionis used 193 times across 28 of the 56 spec files and declared nowhere, which costs this harness nothing and would cost the next SDK eight unimplementable tests.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
