@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ Each subdirectory under `tests/e2e/` is one suite, scoped to an endpoint family
- `logging/` - logging-integration delivery (datadog and friends)
- `security/` - secret handling and log-leak protection
- `router/` - routing and reliability behavior (fallbacks, cooldowns)
- `load/` - performance-category tests, kept OUT of the main suite: throughput/load SLO tests are a different testing category from functional e2e (variance-driven, historically flaky) and live outside this suite until re-implemented as their own pipeline (LIT-5163); do not add a live load test that runs in the default collection. What lives here: the weekly session-anomaly test (`test_weekly_session_anomaly_e2e.py`, Claude Code-shaped multi-turn sessions against real providers with ceilings on error rate, cache read/write, turn time, and spend; marked `weekly` and deselected unless `E2E_WEEKLY_ANOMALY` is set, driven by `.github/workflows/weekly_load_anomaly.yml`), the Redis chaos test (`test_redis_chaos_e2e.py`, locust load against mock deployments split round robin over `/chat/completions` and `/v1/messages`, one endpoint per simulated user, with `CLIENT PAUSE ALL` on the proxy's Redis mid-run to simulate it being down outright, asserting zero failed requests on every endpoint, budgeting RSS and CPU-per-request as ratios against the same run's healthy phase, and holding p50/p90/p99 latency and log-bytes-per-request to flat ceilings (a ratio cannot bound those two: an open breaker skips Redis instead of waiting on it, so the chaos phase can measure cheaper than baseline while still being far slower than a user should see); needs a proxy booted from `gateway/redis_chaos_ci_config.yml` on the same host with `E2E_PROXY_PID` and `E2E_PROXY_LOG` set, marked `redis_chaos`, deselected unless `E2E_REDIS_CHAOS` is set, driven weekly by `.github/workflows/test-e2e-redis-chaos.yml`), and markerless harness unit tests for the locust, process-usage, and session-anomaly aggregation logic

- `other/` - the holding-pen suite for the `other.*` registry cluster with no home of its own yet: the master-key auth gate and the process-lifecycle health probes (liveness, public readiness, authenticated readiness diagnostics). Promote a cluster out once it is large/stable enough for its own suite
- `gateway/` - proxy configuration only (`litellm-config.yml`); no tests
- `claude_code/` - the Claude Code compatibility matrix: drives the real `claude` CLI (and HTTP probes) against a proxy for each feature x provider cell, reporting tagged-union outcomes via the `compat_result` fixture; ships its own driver/builder/publisher plus `_*_unit_tests/` trees. The HTTP probes ride the shared transport (`ProxyClient.count_tokens` / `ProxyClient.messages`); the CLI-driving path stays bespoke
