tests: add comprehensive error handling tests#129
Conversation
Add 47 new test cases covering parser error scenarios including: - Empty and whitespace-only input validation - CREATE TABLE syntax errors (missing columns, invalid types) - INSERT statement errors (missing values, malformed syntax) - SELECT statement edge cases (missing FROM, invalid projections) - UPDATE/DELETE incomplete statements - WHERE clause and ORDER BY errors - Management statement errors (DESCRIBE, DROP TABLE) - Syntax errors (unclosed strings, unbalanced parentheses) Signed-off-by: noor05-creator <noorasif.noor05@gmail.com>
WalkthroughAdded a comprehensive unit test suite to the SQL parser covering multiple error scenarios including empty input, invalid syntax, missing components, malformed statements, and dialect-specific edge cases. No functional changes to the parser implementation. Changes

test_error_drop_table_missing_name, and

two-stage fallthrough (parse_management_statement fails due to token count, then
sqlparser errors); update each test to include a short inline comment explaining
this two-stage matching behavior and why the panic! on Ok is required so future
maintainers understand the dependency on both management-parser token-count
checks and sqlparser's erroring behavior.

- Around line 755-763: The test test_error_negative_limit currently does nothing
when Parser::parse returns Ok, so update it to assert the expected behavior:
call Parser::parse(sql) into result and then either assert that result.is_err()
(e.g., assert!(result.is_err(), "expected parse error for LIMIT -5, got {:?}",
result)) or unwrap the Ok and explicitly assert the parsed AST's limit field
value (inspect the returned query's limit field) to ensure LIMIT -5 is handled
as expected; reference Parser::parse, the result variable, and the parsed
query's limit field when making the change.
- Around line 660-670: The test test_error_select_join_not_supported currently
does nothing when Parser::parse returns Ok, letting joins be silently accepted;
change it to explicitly assert the expected failure: assert that result.is_err()
(or match result { Err(e) => assert!(e.to_string().contains("Unsupported") ||
e.to_string().contains("table reference")), Ok(_) => panic!("Parser unexpectedly
accepted JOIN in test_error_select_join_not_supported") }) so the test fails if
Parser::parse succeeds; update the test to use the Parser::parse result variable
and the explicit Ok branch assertion to pin the expected behavior.

Tautological tests that can never fail — these provide no value.
Multiple tests in this file use the pattern:
if result.is_ok() {
assert!(true);
} else {
assert!(result.is_err());
}This is a tautology — the test passes for every possible outcome, so it can never catch a regression. The same pattern appears in: test_error_create_table_missing_columns, test_error_create_table_empty_columns, test_error_special_characters_in_unquoted_identifier, and test_error_reserved_keyword_without_quotes.
If the parser's behavior for these inputs is genuinely dialect-dependent and you want to document it without asserting a specific outcome, either:
- Pin the current behavior so you'll notice if it changes, or
- Mark them
#[ignore]with a reason and open a tracking issue.
Option 1: Pin the expected behavior
fn test_error_create_table_missing_columns() {
let sql = "CREATE TABLE users";
let result = Parser::parse(sql);
- // Parser accepts this, so we skip this test or make it check for successful parse
- // Since the underlying sqlparser library might accept this syntax
- if result.is_ok() {
- // Some parsers allow CREATE TABLE without explicit columns
- assert!(true);
- } else {
- assert!(result.is_err());
- }
+ // Pin current behavior: sqlparser rejects CREATE TABLE without columns.
+ // Update this assertion if upgrading sqlparser changes the behavior.
+ assert!(result.is_err(), "Expected error for CREATE TABLE without columns");

Missing blank line before #[test].
Every other test in this file has a blank line separating it from the previous test. Line 549 breaks the pattern (no blank line after the closing } of test_error_whitespace_only).

test_error_select_join_not_supported silently passes when JOIN succeeds.
If result.is_ok(), no assertion runs and the test passes — you'd never know the parser started accepting JOINs. Pin the behavior or add an Ok branch assertion.
Suggested fix
fn test_error_select_join_not_supported() {
let sql = "SELECT * FROM users JOIN orders ON users.id = orders.user_id";
let result = Parser::parse(sql);
- // This might parse but should fail during execution or return unsupported error
- // Depending on implementation, adjust assertion
- if result.is_err() {
- let err_msg = result.unwrap_err().to_string();
- assert!(err_msg.contains("Unsupported") || err_msg.contains("table reference"));
- }
+ // JOINs are not supported by the parser; pin this expectation.

test_error_negative_limit silently passes on success — no meaningful assertion.
When result.is_err() is false, the test body does nothing and passes silently. This means a LIMIT -5 that is accepted without error goes completely unnoticed. Either assert the expected behavior on the Ok path (e.g., verify the limit field value) or assert that it must error.
Suggested fix
fn test_error_negative_limit() {
let sql = "SELECT * FROM users LIMIT -5";
let result = Parser::parse(sql);
- // Parser might accept it, but it should be handled
- if result.is_err() {
- assert!(true);

🧹 Nitpick | 🔵 Trivial
Management statement "incomplete input" tests look correct in logic but are fragile.
test_error_describe_missing_table, test_error_drop_table_missing_name, and test_error_drop_table_if_exists_missing_name rely on the fact that parse_management_statement won't match (wrong token count) and then sqlparser will also error. The panic! on the Ok branch is good — these are not tautological. However, consider adding a comment noting the two-stage fallthrough so future maintainers understand why these error out.
