* fix(caldav): pull Google Calendar events from the events collection, not the /user principal
Google serves its CalDAV principal at .../caldav/v2/<id>/user but events live
under .../caldav/v2/<id>/events. The caldav library's principal->home-set
discovery does not reliably enumerate calendars from Google's /user endpoint,
so _sync_blocking fell into its 'treat the URL as a single calendar' fallback
and ran every calendar-query REPORT against the principal URL. /user holds no
VEVENTs, so the REPORT returned a clean but empty 200 for every date range:
auth succeeded, the calendar stayed empty (Apple Calendar works because iCloud
exposes standard discovery at the pasted URL).
Add _google_caldav_events_url() to map a recognised Google principal URL to its
events collection, and route both discovery-less fallbacks through
_open_url_as_calendar() so Google syncs hit /events while other servers' URLs
are used unchanged.
Fixes#2507
* fix(caldav): also map Google's legacy www.google.com/calendar/dav principal URL
Some Google accounts authenticate against the older CalDAV endpoint
(https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/<id>/user) rather than the newer
apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2 form (reported on #2507). Both have the
same principal-vs-events split, so map the legacy /user URL to its /events
collection as well. The legacy branch is gated on the /calendar/dav/ path so an
unrelated www.google.com URL ending in /user is left untouched.
This file documents the shared test helpers and the review expectations that go
with them. The suite is being refactored incrementally, so this is a working
reference for that effort — not a claim that the suite is already fully
organized. Read it before adding a new helper or before reviewing a PR that
touches tests/helpers/.
Core principles
Keep PRs small and homogeneous: one kind of change per PR.
Prefer explicit local setup over hidden global fixtures.
Avoid expanding the root conftest.py unless absolutely necessary.
Do not mix file moves with logic changes in the same PR.
Do not weaken tests with skip/xfail just to make CI pass.
Validate the focused files you changed, plus any neighboring or
order-sensitive groups they interact with.
Helper conventions
The helpers below live under tests/helpers/. They exist to remove repeated
boilerplate that already appeared across multiple tests. Reach for one only when
your test matches its intended use; do not stretch a helper to cover a new case.
tests.helpers.cli_loader.load_script
Use when a test needs to import a script under scripts/ without repeating
SourceFileLoader / importlib.util boilerplate.
Intended for script/CLI tests that load a single file from scripts/.
Not for arbitrary package imports — use a normal import for those.
When migrating an existing test to it, keep the existing stubs and assertions
unchanged. Any sys.modules stubs the script needs at import time must still
be injected (e.g. via monkeypatch) before calling load_script.
tests.helpers.import_state.clear_module
Use when a test must drop one cached module and its parent-package attribute
before a fresh import.
Clears sys.modules[name].
Clears the parent-package attribute when present.
Good replacement for local sys.modules.pop(...) + delattr(parent, child)
blocks.
tests.helpers.import_state.preserve_import_state
Use when a test temporarily installs stubs into sys.modules and needs
deterministic cleanup afterward.
Context manager: restores both sys.modules entries and parent-package
attributes on exit (normal or exception).
Useful around module-level stubs or temporary imports.
Prefer narrow, explicit module names over broad ones.
