Create Comprehensive Unit Tests for FileSystemPro Core Modules

FileSystemPro is a cross-platform file management library that currently lacks comprehensive unit test coverage for its core functionality. The project needs unit tests for the following modules:

Modules Requiring Unit Tests:

1. FileSystem Module

  • Cross-platform path detection and resolution
  • OS-specific directory path variables (desktop, documents, downloads, etc.)
  • Platform identification logic for Linux, macOS, and Windows

2. File Module

  • File creation, deletion, and manipulation operations
  • Checksum calculation and integrity verification
  • File splitting and reassembly functionality
  • File enumeration and metadata retrieval

3. Directory Module

  • Directory creation, deletion, and manipulation
  • Path combination and joining operations
  • Directory listing and information retrieval

4. Wrapper Module

  • Metadata retrieval for files and directories
  • File extension checking functionality
  • Object information gathering

5. Watcher Module

  • File system monitoring and change detection
  • State comparison and difference tracking
  • Real-time file system event handling

6. Compression Module

  • TAR and ZIP archive creation and extraction
  • Archive reading and content listing
  • Compression format handling

7. Device Module

  • System disk information retrieval
  • CPU usage and performance metrics
  • Storage metrics and partition information

Testing Requirements:

Framework: Use Python's built-in unittest framework (consistent with existing console tests)

Cross-Platform Testing: Ensure tests work across all supported platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows) and Python versions 3.8+

Test Coverage Areas:

  • Unit tests for individual functions and methods
  • Integration tests for module interactions
  • Mock testing for system-dependent operations
  • Error handling and edge case validation
  • Cross-platform compatibility verification

Benefits:

  • Ensure reliability across supported platforms
  • Prevent regressions during development
  • Improve code quality and maintainability
  • Validate cross-platform functionality
  • Enable confident refactoring and feature additions

Implementation Notes:

  • Use appropriate mocking for file system operations to avoid side effects
  • Include tests for error conditions and edge cases
  • Ensure tests are isolated and can run independently
  • Follow existing test patterns from the console module

This comprehensive test suite will significantly improve the project's reliability and maintainability while ensuring consistent behavior across all supported platforms.
