Add comprehensive GitHub Actions workflows for: License Workflow: - Verify LICENSE file exists and is MIT - Check dependency licenses for compatibility - Scan for copyleft licenses (GPL/LGPL/AGPL) - Generate license reports for all dependencies Go Workflow: - Test matrix across multiple Go versions and OS (1.22, 1.23, stable) - Vulnerability scanning with govulncheck - Go module tidiness checks - Static analysis with staticcheck and revive - Code formatting validation (gofmt, goimports) - Benchmark tests on main branch - Code coverage with Codecov integration - Weekly scheduled runs for dependency updates
Replace golangci-lint style directives with staticcheck-native format to properly suppress intentional nil context test cases. Changed from: //nolint:staticcheck // Testing nil context To: //lint:ignore SA1012 Testing nil context handling This resolves CI failures while preserving valuable nil context validation tests across 16 test files.
Changed all nil context tests to pass nil instead of context.TODO() and added nolint:staticcheck comments on the same line as the call
Changed //nolint:staticcheck to //lint:ignore SA1012 since staticcheck only recognizes its own lint:ignore directive format
Changed //lint:ignore SA1012 to //nolint:staticcheck since golangci-lint requires the nolint format for staticcheck rules
The //lint:ignore SA1012 directive is recognized by both standalone staticcheck and golangci-lint, unlike //nolint which only works with golangci-lint
Instead of passing nil directly to functions, assign nil to a context.Context variable first. This avoids triggering SA1012 staticcheck warning while still testing nil context handling
This update resolves Windows-specific path handling issues where drive letters were being corrupted (e.g., \C:: instead of C:\), causing file write operations to fail on Windows platforms. All tests now pass on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
Replace hardcoded Unix paths with cross-platform alternatives: - Use t.TempDir() instead of /tmp for temporary directories - Use exec.LookPath to find absolute paths to binaries - Replace /bin/echo with platform-independent go binary This ensures all tests pass on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Replace hardcoded /tmp paths with t.TempDir() in: - internal/policy/decision_test.go - internal/policy/engine_test.go - internal/scanner/osv/osv_security_test.go - internal/scanner/osv/osv_test.go These tests were failing on Windows because /tmp translates to D:\tmp which doesn't exist. Using t.TempDir() ensures cross-platform compatibility.
Replace hardcoded /tmp paths with t.TempDir() in: - internal/scanner/semgrep/semgrep_test.go (4 instances) - internal/scanner/trivy/trivy_test.go (4 instances) These tests were failing on Windows due to hardcoded /tmp paths.
Increase timeout from 1 nanosecond to 1 millisecond and sleep time from 10 nanoseconds to 10 milliseconds to make the test more reliable across different platforms, especially Windows where nanosecond-level timing can be unreliable.
Change timeout from 1 nanosecond to 1 millisecond and sleep from 10 nanoseconds to 10 milliseconds for reliable cross-platform behavior.
Use direct string concatenation instead of filepath.Join for test cases that intentionally test invalid paths containing newlines and null bytes. Added nolint directives with explanation.
