csview: evaluator compatibility issues resolved — unchanged submission reaches official SOLVED (✅ 335 tests)

[andy6011960]

Update: we have now completed an end-to-end reproduction and isolated the evaluator-side causes affecting wfxr__csview.8ac4de0.

Using the same stabilized submission that previously produced an official score of 69, we identified and corrected two independent evaluator compatibility issues:

1. A test-environment dependency interaction caused one branch to fail before producing results.xml. The branch run.sh upgraded pytest at runtime, which produced an incompatibility with the installed libtmux pytest plugin. Preventing that unintended pytest upgrade restored normal branch execution.

2. JUnit testcase names produced under the evaluator's eval.tests.* namespace were compared literally against the corresponding tests.* names in tests.json. This caused valid executed tests to be simultaneously classified as unexpected and injected as not_run. We added namespace-aware matching while preserving the existing completeness checks.

We also retained the existing pytest-timeout compatibility handling (thread → signal) already required to prevent xdist worker loss on timed-out tests.

Verification sequence:

• isolated failing branch reproduced;
• minimal evaluator-side correction applied;
• isolated branch: 2/2 passed, no branch errors or warnings;
• evaluator regression suite: 41/41 passed;
• complete ProgramBench official evaluator rerun performed.

Final official result:

wfxr__csview.8ac4de0 ✅ 335 tests
Average 100

The resulting machine-readable evaluation artifact contains:

• solution_branch: submission
• error_code: None
• error_details: None
• 348 recorded test results
• 347 passed
• 1 skipped
• 0 not_run
• no branch errors
• no warnings

Most importantly, the submission archive was unchanged between the earlier score-69 run and the final solved run.

ProgramBench repository HEAD used for the final run:

We preserved the complete evidence package: original submission, final eval.json, precheck reports, reconstruction state, evaluator state, evaluator diff, regression evidence, provenance, manifest, and SHA-256 inventory. The package was independently hash-verified after transfer from the Linux evaluation environment to Windows.

We would be happy to provide the evaluator patch and/or the verification package privately to the ProgramBench maintainers for independent reproduction.

Could you advise the preferred way to submit this result and evaluator finding for official independent verification?
