The geometry out-of-bounds test intermittently failed when it calculated a path length and expected a separate calculation inside referenceCoordinate to identify exactly the same endpoint. Core Location distance results can depend on other distance calls, making that assertion unsuitable for this boundary test.

Use a fixed 1,000 km distance, safely beyond the roughly 379 km fixture, to verify finite-distance clamping. Retain the maximum-distance, zero, and negative-distance checks. Remove the exact-length and one-metre-overshoot assertions that relied on repeatable distance calculations.

Validation: all 21 GeometryUtilsTest tests passed on the iOS 26.4 simulator with Thread Sanitizer disabled, matching CI. The updated test also passed 160,000 concurrent repetitions in a standalone simulator harness using the existing geometry helpers. git diff --check passed.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests
    • Updated coordinate boundary checks to use fixed distances, covering values before and beyond the route and confirming the expected endpoint is returned.
    • Removed checks based on route length and noted that Core Location distance calculations can vary.

The iOS geometry test now uses fixed distances for out-of-bounds coordinate checks. The file’s copyright notice now credits Soundscape Community Contributors.

Layer / File(s) Summary
Out-of-bounds coordinate assertions
apps/ios/UnitTests/App/Helpers/GeometryUtilsTest.swift
The test uses fixed distances for the first- and last-coordinate assertions. It retains existing extreme-distance assertions and notes that Core Location distance calculations may vary.

The change is mergeable with a bounded test-coverage follow-up: add a deterministic overshoot closer to the fixture’s endpoint while retaining the flakiness fix.

Nitpick Restore deterministic coverage for finite overshoots.

Restore deterministic coverage for finite overshoots.

The test no longer checks a small finite overshoot. Add a fixed value above the fixture’s documented sub-400 km length, such as 400_000, instead of recalculating path_len:

Suggested test coverage
         XCTAssertEqual(GeometryUtils.referenceCoordinate(on: path, for: CLLocationDistanceMax), path.last)
+        XCTAssertEqual(GeometryUtils.referenceCoordinate(on: path, for: 400_000), path.last)
         XCTAssertEqual(GeometryUtils.referenceCoordinate(on: path, for: 1_000_000), path.last)
