# Story 18: Streaming Responses - Testing Notes
|
||||
|
||||
## Manual Testing Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
### Setup
|
||||
1. Start Ollama: `ollama serve`
|
||||
2. Ensure a model is running: `ollama list`
|
||||
3. Build and run the app: `npm run tauri dev`
|
||||
|
||||
### Test Cases
|
||||
|
||||
#### TC1: Basic Streaming
|
||||
- [ ] Send a simple message: "Hello, how are you?"
|
||||
- [ ] Verify tokens appear one-by-one in real-time
|
||||
- [ ] Verify smooth streaming with no lag
|
||||
- [ ] Verify message appears in the chat history after streaming completes
|
||||
|
||||
#### TC2: Long Response Streaming
|
||||
- [ ] Send: "Write a long explanation of how React hooks work"
|
||||
- [ ] Verify streaming continues smoothly for long responses
|
||||
- [ ] Verify auto-scroll keeps the latest token visible
|
||||
- [ ] Verify no UI stuttering or performance issues
|
||||
|
||||
#### TC3: Code Block Streaming
|
||||
- [ ] Send: "Show me a simple Python function"
|
||||
- [ ] Verify code blocks stream correctly
|
||||
- [ ] Verify syntax highlighting appears after streaming completes
|
||||
- [ ] Verify code formatting is preserved
|
||||
|
||||
#### TC4: Tool Calls During Streaming
|
||||
- [ ] Send: "Read the package.json file"
|
||||
- [ ] Verify streaming stops when tool call is detected
|
||||
- [ ] Verify tool execution begins immediately
|
||||
- [ ] Verify tool output appears in chat
|
||||
- [ ] Verify conversation can continue after tool execution
|
||||
|
||||
#### TC5: Multiple Turns
|
||||
- [ ] Have a 3-4 turn conversation
|
||||
- [ ] Verify each response streams correctly
|
||||
- [ ] Verify message history is maintained
|
||||
- [ ] Verify context is preserved across turns
|
||||
|
||||
#### TC6: Stop Button During Streaming
|
||||
- [ ] Send a request for a long response
|
||||
- [ ] Click the Stop button mid-stream
|
||||
- [ ] Verify streaming stops immediately
|
||||
- [ ] Verify partial response is preserved in chat
|
||||
- [ ] Verify can send new messages after stopping
|
||||
|
||||
#### TC7: Network Interruption
|
||||
- [ ] Send a request
|
||||
- [ ] Stop Ollama during streaming (simulate network error)
|
||||
- [ ] Verify graceful error handling
|
||||
- [ ] Verify partial content is preserved
|
||||
- [ ] Verify error message is shown
|
||||
|
||||
#### TC8: Fast Streaming
|
||||
- [ ] Use a fast model (e.g., llama3.1:8b)
|
||||
- [ ] Send: "Count from 1 to 20"
|
||||
- [ ] Verify UI can keep up with fast token rate
|
||||
- [ ] Verify no dropped tokens
|
||||
|
||||
## Expected Behavior
|
||||
|
||||
### Streaming Flow
|
||||
1. User sends message
|
||||
2. Message appears in chat immediately
|
||||
3. "Thinking..." indicator appears briefly
|
||||
4. Tokens start appearing in real-time in assistant message bubble
|
||||
5. Auto-scroll keeps latest token visible
|
||||
6. When streaming completes, `chat:update` event finalizes the message
|
||||
7. Message is added to history
|
||||
8. UI returns to ready state
|
||||
|
||||
### Events
|
||||
- `chat:token`: Emitted for each token (payload: `string`)
|
||||
- `chat:update`: Emitted when streaming completes (payload: `Message[]`)
|
||||
|
||||
### UI States
|
||||
- **Idle**: Input enabled, no loading indicator
|
||||
- **Streaming**: Input disabled, streaming content visible, auto-scrolling
|
||||
- **Tool Execution**: Input disabled, tool output visible
|
||||
- **Error**: Error message visible, input re-enabled
|
||||
|
||||
## Debugging
|
||||
|
||||
### Backend Logs
|
||||
Check terminal for Rust logs:
|
||||
- Look for "=== Ollama Request ===" to verify streaming is enabled
|
||||
- Check for streaming response parsing logs
|
||||
|
||||
### Frontend Console
|
||||
Open DevTools console:
|
||||
- Look for `chat:token` events
|
||||
- Look for `chat:update` events
|
||||
- Check for any JavaScript errors
|
||||
|
||||
### Ollama Logs
|
||||
Check Ollama logs:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
journalctl -u ollama -f # Linux
|
||||
tail -f /var/log/ollama.log # If configured
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Known Issues / Limitations
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Streaming is Ollama-only**: Other providers (Claude, GPT) not yet supported
|
||||
2. **Tool outputs don't stream**: Tools execute and return results all at once
|
||||
3. **No streaming animations**: Just simple text append, no typing effects
|
||||
4. **Token buffering**: Very fast streaming might batch tokens slightly
|
||||
|
||||
## Success Criteria
|
||||
|
||||
All acceptance criteria from Story 18 must pass:
|
||||
- [x] Backend emits `chat:token` events
|
||||
- [x] Frontend listens and displays tokens in real-time
|
||||
- [ ] Tokens appear smoothly without lag (manual verification required)
|
||||
- [ ] Auto-scroll works during streaming (manual verification required)

# Story 20: Start New Session / Clear Chat History
|
||||
|
||||
## User Story
|
||||
As a user, I want to be able to start a fresh conversation without restarting the entire application, so that I can begin a new task with clean context while keeping the same project open.
|
||||
|
||||
## Acceptance Criteria
|
||||
- [ ] There is a visible "New Session" or "Clear Chat" button in the UI
|
||||
- [ ] Clicking the button clears all messages from the chat history
|
||||
- [ ] The input field remains enabled and ready for a new message
|
||||
- [ ] The button asks for confirmation before clearing (to prevent accidental data loss)
|
||||
- [ ] After clearing, the chat shows an empty state or welcome message
|
||||
- [ ] The project path and model settings are preserved (only messages are cleared)
|
||||
- [ ] Any ongoing streaming or tool execution is cancelled before clearing
|
||||
- [ ] The action is immediate and provides visual feedback
|
||||
|
||||
## Out of Scope
|
||||
- Saving/exporting previous sessions before clearing
|
||||
- Multiple concurrent chat sessions or tabs
|
||||
- Undo functionality after clearing
|
||||
- Automatic session management or limits
|
||||
- Session history or recovery
|
||||
|
||||
## Technical Notes
|
||||
- Frontend state (`messages`) needs to be cleared
|
||||
- Backend may need to be notified to cancel any in-flight operations
|
||||
- Should integrate with the cancellation mechanism from Story 13 (if implemented)
|
||||
- Button should be placed in the header area near the model selector
|
||||
- Consider using a modal dialog for confirmation
|
||||
- State: `setMessages([])` to clear the array
|
||||
|
||||
## Design Considerations
|
||||
- Button placement: Header area (top right or near model controls)
|
||||
- Button style: Secondary/subtle to avoid accidental clicks
|
||||
- Confirmation dialog: "Are you sure? This will clear all messages."
|
||||
- Icon suggestion: 🔄 or "New" text label

# Story 18: Token-by-Token Streaming Responses
|
||||
|
||||
## User Story
|
||||
As a user, I want to see the AI's response appear token-by-token in real-time (like ChatGPT), so that I get immediate feedback and know the system is working, rather than waiting for the entire response to appear at once.
|
||||
|
||||
## Acceptance Criteria
|
||||
- [x] Tokens appear in the chat interface as Ollama generates them, not all at once
|
||||
- [x] The streaming experience is smooth with no visible lag or stuttering
|
||||
- [x] Auto-scroll keeps the latest token visible as content streams in
|
||||
- [x] When streaming completes, the message is properly added to the message history
|
||||
- [x] Tool calls work correctly: if Ollama decides to call a tool mid-stream, streaming stops gracefully and tool execution begins
|
||||
- [ ] The Stop button (Story 13) works during streaming to cancel mid-response
|
||||
- [x] If streaming is interrupted (network error, cancellation), partial content is preserved and an appropriate error state is shown
|
||||
- [x] Multi-turn conversations continue to work: streaming doesn't break the message history or context
|
||||
|
||||
## Out of Scope
|
||||
- Streaming for tool outputs (tools execute and return results as before, non-streaming)
|
||||
- Throttling or rate-limiting token display (we stream all tokens as fast as Ollama sends them)
|
||||
- Custom streaming animations or effects beyond simple text append
|
||||
- Streaming from other LLM providers (Claude, GPT, etc.) - this story focuses on Ollama only
|
||||
|
||||
## Technical Notes
|
||||
- Backend must enable `stream: true` in Ollama API requests
|
||||
- Ollama returns newline-delimited JSON, one object per token
|
||||
- Backend emits `chat:token` events (one per token) to frontend
|
||||
- Frontend appends tokens to a streaming buffer and renders in real-time
|
||||
- When streaming completes (`done: true`), backend emits `chat:update` with full message
|
||||
- Tool calls are detected when Ollama sends `tool_calls` in the response, which triggers tool execution flow
