Review:Thank you for addressing the production bug from #1211! ✅ What Works Well
Possible issues1. Shell Quote Escaping MissingFile: Problem: Commands with quotes will break: # Current code
wrapped_command = f"{shell} -c '{command}'"
# If command = "echo 'hello world'"
# Results in: /bin/sh -c 'echo 'hello world'' # Syntax error!Fix: import shlex
# In exec_with_shell_fallback()
wrapped_command = f"{shell} -c {shlex.quote(command)}"2. Unhandled Fallback FailureFile: Problem: If Scenario: # pod_exec() detects shell error
response = "impossible to determine the shell to run command"
# Calls fallback
exec_with_shell_fallback()
→ detects shell = "/bin/sh"
→ wraps command: "/bin/sh -c 'date'"
→ kubecli.exec_cmd_in_pod() still fails with same error
→ Returns: "impossible to determine the shell..." # Same error!
# User gets same error - unclear if fallback was even attemptedFix - Add check in exec_with_shell_fallback(): for i in range(5):
response = kubecli.exec_cmd_in_pod(wrapped_command, pod_name, namespace, container_name)
if not response:
time.sleep(2)
continue
elif "unauthorized" in response.lower() or "authorization" in response.lower():
time.sleep(2)
continue
# ADD THIS CHECK ↓
elif "impossible to determine the shell" in response.lower():
logging.error(
f"Shell fallback failed: even with detected shell {shell}, "
f"still cannot execute command in pod {pod_name}. "
f"This indicates a deeper issue with pod exec permissions or krkn-lib."
)
return False # Give up - fallback didn't help
elif "exec failed" in response.lower() or "error" in response.lower():
logging.debug(f"Command execution attempt {i+1}/5 failed: {response}")
time.sleep(2)
continue
else:
return response3. Command Double-WrappingFile: Problem: If the original command is already shell-wrapped, you'll create nested shells: # Original command
command = "/bin/bash -c 'date'"
# After wrapping
wrapped = "/bin/sh -c '/bin/bash -c 'date''" # Nested shells!Fix: # In exec_with_shell_fallback()
if isinstance(command, list):
command = " ".join(command)
# Check if already wrapped with a shell
if command.strip().startswith(("/bin/bash", "/bin/sh", "/busybox/sh")):
# Already wrapped, use as-is
wrapped_command = command
logging.debug(f"Command already shell-wrapped: {command}")
else:
# Need to wrap with detected shell
wrapped_command = f"{shell} -c {shlex.quote(command)}"
logging.debug(f"Wrapped command with {shell}: {wrapped_command}")4. Missing Unit TestsProblem: No tests added for new methods. Required tests in def test_detect_available_shell_finds_bash(self):

self.assertFalse(result)5. Shell Detection Efficiency ConcernPotential alternative: # Test shell existence without executing it
test_command = f"test -x {shell} && echo exists || echo missing"This might be more reliable in edge cases, but current approach should work for most scenarios. 🎯 Suggestion

Excellent Work - Minor Test Fixes RequiredThis PR has been significantly improved and addresses all previously identified concerns. The implementation is production-ready, but there are 3 failing unit tests that need mock configuration fixes. ❌ CI Test Failures (3 tests) FAIL: test_exec_with_shell_fallback_detects_persistent_shell_error FAIL: test_exec_with_shell_fallback_fails_after_max_retries FAIL: test_exec_with_shell_fallback_retries_on_error Verification After fixing, verify with: All three should pass. Required before merge:
Once tests pass: ✅ READY TO MERGE Great work on addressing all feedback! The implementation is solid - just needs test mock adjustments. |

Description
This PR improves the stability and robustness of
time_scenariosexecution by addressing edge cases observed in issue #1211.While the primary fix was introduced in #1198, there are still gaps in error handling and shell detection that can lead to runtime failures in certain environments.
Changes
1. Fix: Undefined exception variable
