Description

In background EditMode runs, throttling remained enabled until RunStarted, which could cause initialization timeouts during setup. Also, releasing only the failed MCP job left the Unity run and operation lock active, preventing the next job from starting.

The change disables throttling before execution in both modes and retains ownership of the run after a timeout until Unity finishes cleanup. The default initialization timeout remains 15 seconds.

Type of Change

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)
  • New feature (non-breaking change that adds functionality)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)
  • Documentation update
  • Refactoring (no functional changes)
  • Test update

Changes Made

  • Disables throttling before Execute in both EditMode and PlayMode. Restores the original settings even if startup throws an exception.
  • Retains the Unity run GUID and cancels that run after an initialization timeout. Waits for RunStarted to avoid cancelling before Unity records the save state of the open scenes.
  • Monitors Unity cleanup that follows RunFinished or OnError, and releases the operation lock and restores the settings after cleanup completes. Until then, rejects new jobs with tests_running.
  • Saves the timeout, cleanup state, and pending results in SessionState and recovers them after a domain reload. Prevents late callbacks from overwriting the timeout failure.
  • Adds 6 regression tests and testing guidance covering background execution and retries after timeouts.

Compatibility / Package Source

  • Unity version(s) tested: macOS Apple Silicon, Unity 6000.3.20f1, resolved Test Framework 1.6.0.
  • Package source used (#beta, #main, tag, branch, or file:): A file: reference to the modified MCPForUnity from an isolated test project.
  • Resolved commit hash from Packages/packages-lock.json (if using a Git package URL): Not applicable because this is not a Git reference. The changes are based on beta at 142ea0af4890337f0ff6658df61db23982313717.
  • Also checked the cancellation APIs against the source for Test Framework 1.1.31/1.1.33. Handles differences between public and non-public APIs and checks run state by GUID in 1.1.33. Execution with these versions has not been verified.

Testing/Screenshots/Recordings

  • Python tests (cd Server && uv run pytest tests/ -v)

  • Unity EditMode tests

  • Unity PlayMode tests

  • Package import/compile check

  • Not applicable (explain why in Additional Notes)

  • Python: 1,575 passed, 18 skipped with uv run pytest tests/ -q --tb=short.

  • EditMode: 23 passed, 0 failed in TestJobManagerLifecycleTests and TestJobManagerInitTimeoutTests. Before the fix, the new regression test checking the Idle setting before execution started failed (expected 0, actual 9).

  • Actual EditMode execution: With the initialization timeout set to 1ms, verified failure detection, rejection of overlapping runs, cleanup after cancellation, and success of the next run. The saved open scenes and original throttling settings were also preserved.

  • PlayMode: The 5 existing tests in PlayModeBasicTests passed. Verified that the throttling settings and Enter Play Mode Options were restored after completion.

  • tools/check-unity-versions.sh: 0 passed, 0 failed, 4 skipped. The specified Editors (2021.3.45f2, 2022.3.62f1, 6000.0.75f1, 6000.4.8f1) are not available in the verification environment.

Documentation Updates

  • I have added/removed/modified tools or resources
  • If yes, I have updated all documentation files using:
    • The LLM prompt at tools/UPDATE_DOCS_PROMPT.md (recommended)
    • Manual review of the generated changes

There are no changes to the public APIs of tools/resources. Updated the explanations in website/docs/contributing/testing.md.

Additional Notes

Windows/Linux, Unity versions other than those listed above, and GUI use with the Editor unfocused on Unity 6000.0.63 (the version in the report) have not been verified. The Unity verification was performed in batch mode. For Test Framework versions where cancellation state cannot be monitored, ownership is retained until the run finishes naturally.

Fork CI verification

Checked the GitHub Actions results for the same commit 7e034bb2ccd290524184aab5de4e48590e4f53af. The Python tests succeeded, as did the harness tests that run without Unity.

C# compilation also succeeded with Unity 6000.0.75f1. Runtime and Editor were compiled for each of the Windows, macOS, and Linux configurations.

The docs build succeeded.

The E2E tests and the Unity Editor tests that require a license were skipped.

The upstream GitHub Actions are waiting for a maintainer to approve the run for the current commit. The CI successes above are results from runs on the fork that verified the same commit.

Review follow-up

Commit 25be22066fdb11fed07948659462cf28c89279bf addresses the automated review finding that a failing native "is the test run still active?" query could leave the job running with no monitor, holding the test lock indefinitely. A failing query is now treated as an unknown state, never as idle: the outcome is persisted with ownership kept and the query is retried through the existing idle monitor. If it keeps failing for 30 seconds, the job is failed with a message that says how to recover (reload scripts or restart the Editor; run_tests(clear_stuck=true) drops the job but may not release the test run lock). Ownership is never released because a query threw. After a domain reload the added text is not restored as a run error, and an initialization-timeout job keeps that message. New tests cover the retry window, the restored error text and the job states.

Verification for the latest commit:

  • Unity 6000.3.20f1 (macOS), EditMode, local run of TestRunnerServiceNativeQueryRetryTests, TestJobManagerLifecycleTests, TestJobManagerInitTimeoutTests: 31 passed, 0 failed.
  • Fork CI (haranishi/unity-mcp#2): the license-free C# compile check (win/osx/linux defines) succeeded.
  • Not run: the Unity versions pinned by CI, and Windows/Linux. The fork has no Unity license, so its Unity Tests and E2E jobs are skipped, not passed. The upstream workflows for this PR are waiting for a maintainer to approve the run.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved handling of test runs that exceed their initialization time limit. Unity waits for an active run to finish cleaning up before starting another, while preserving the timeout failure in the results.
    • Improved recovery of test-run state after an Editor reload, including runs still initializing or cleaning up.
    • Interaction throttling is disabled before EditMode and PlayMode tests begin, and restored when a run ends or cannot start.
    • Improved handling when Unity cannot confirm whether a native test run is still active.
  • Documentation

    • Expanded the testing guide with details on timeouts, cancellation, cleanup, and interaction throttling.

📝 Walkthrough

The test runner now applies preemptive no-throttling in both test modes. Job and runner state track Unity run IDs and native cleanup. Initialization timeouts can retain job ownership until the native run becomes idle, including across Editor reloads.

Changes: Unity test run lifecycle

Layer / File(s) Summary
Persist and restore native run state
MCPForUnity/Editor/Services/TestJobManager.cs, MCPForUnity/Editor/Services/TestRunnerService.cs
Persisted jobs and runner recovery retain Unity run IDs, timeout and cleanup state, and pending results or errors.
Schedule runs and manage throttling
MCPForUnity/Editor/Services/TestJobManager.cs, MCPForUnity/Editor/Services/TestRunnerService.cs, MCPForUnity/Editor/Services/TestRunnerNoThrottle.cs, TestProjects/UnityMCPTests/Assets/Tests/EditMode/Services/TestJobManagerLifecycleTests.cs
Both test modes apply preemptive no-throttling and record scheduled run IDs. Tests cover preference restoration after completion and startup failure.
Retain ownership through timeout cleanup
MCPForUnity/Editor/Services/TestJobManager.cs, MCPForUnity/Editor/Services/TestRunnerService.cs, MCPForUnity/Editor/Services/TestRunnerNoThrottle.cs, TestProjects/UnityMCPTests/Assets/Tests/EditMode/Services/TestJobManagerLifecycleTests.cs, TestProjects/UnityMCPTests/Assets/Tests/EditMode/Services/TestRunnerServiceNativeQueryRetryTests.cs, TestProjects/UnityMCPTests/Assets/Tests/EditMode/Services/TestRunnerServiceNativeQueryRetryTests.cs.meta, website/docs/contributing/testing.md
Timed-out jobs retain ownership while the tracked native run is active or its status is unconfirmed. The runner preserves pending results or errors, then clears run state and restores throttling after cleanup. Tests and documentation cover timeout, cancellation, and reload behavior.

Comment thread MCPForUnity/Editor/Services/TestRunnerService.cs Outdated
When the Test Framework activity query threw in CompleteRun, the job was left
running with no monitor and kept its operation lock indefinitely. The idle
monitor also unsubscribed itself on any exception.

Treat a failing query as "state unknown", not "idle": persist the outcome with
ownership kept and retry through the existing idle monitor. If the query keeps
failing for 30 seconds, stop and fail the job explicitly, with a message that
says how to recover. Ownership is never released because a query threw.

After a domain reload the "unconfirmed" text is not restored as a run error,
so a later successful check reports the run's real outcome, and an
initialization-timeout job keeps that message.
