# bug-1895: xce-build.sh apiserver/all: a failing apiserver Go test does not fail the build
@@ -41,15 +42,16 @@ FAIL apiserver/store [build failed]
- Evidence: the mechanism is in src/tools/xce-build.sh lines ~390 and ~437: `cd frontend/apiserver && go test ... && cd ../xcecli && go test ...` under `set -euo pipefail`; bash's errexit ignores a failure of any command in an && list except the last, so a failing apiserver `go test` just short-circuits the list and the script carries on to exit 0
## Root cause
-TODO: required for fixed/partial
+src/tools/xce-build.sh ran the frontend Go tests for the apiserver and all components as a single && list: `cd frontend/apiserver && go test ... && cd ../xcecli && go test ...`, under `set -euo pipefail`. Bash's errexit does not apply to a failing command in an && list unless it is the last one, so a failing apiserver `go test` merely short-circuited the list: the xcecli tests were skipped, the script carried on, and it exited 0 with `=== Done`. Only an xcecli failure (the list's last command) failed the build.
## Fix
-TODO: required for fixed/partial
+src/tools/xce-build.sh: in the apiserver and all components, each Go suite now runs as its own command in a subshell -- `(cd frontend/apiserver && go test ...)` then `(cd frontend/xcecli && go test ...)` -- so a failure of either exits the script under set -e, and the cd no longer changes the script's working directory. The xcecli component's single suite got the same subshell for consistency.
## Verification
-- Test: TODO: name + file; RED before the fix, GREEN after
-- Suites: TODO: suite results and build profile
-- Live: TODO: soak/deploy run, or n/a and why
+- Test: live probe -- a temporary failing test (TestBug1895DeliberateFailure, t.Fatal) dropped into src/frontend/apiserver/utils/ and, separately, src/frontend/xcecli/cmd/, then `xce-build.sh apiserver asan --incremental`. RED before the fix: `FAIL apiserver/utils` yet exit 0 with `=== Done` and no xcecli tests run. GREEN after: apiserver probe -> exit 1, no Done line; xcecli probe -> exit 1; clean tree -> exit 0 with all 10 xcecli packages tested. The probe files were removed (never committed)
+- Suites: n/a -- build-script change; `bash -n` clean
