Plan 75 §G7. The suite's hand-rolled stubs were entrenching the very
duplication the plan removes: _FakeProc pasted byte-identical in four
modules, ~25 fake_run closures re-implementing argv dispatch, and zero
tests patching the wrappers — every stub targeted raw subprocess inside
one service module, so each new service test recreated the raw seam.
tests/subprocess_stub.py is that seam. Tests script argv → result; when
G1 moves services onto run_checked() the retarget happens here once
instead of in twelve files.
Two properties are deliberate:
- An unscripted command raises instead of inventing returncode=0. It is a
BaseException for the same reason SbinPathError is — services wrap
subprocess in `except Exception`, so an AssertionError would be eaten
by exactly the handlers the kit exists to test.
- Stubbed execs are still sbin-guarded. Patching subprocess removes the
§B2 runtime guard, so the kit re-applies it; popen_guard grows a public
guard_argv() as the one door for that check.
Matching normalises away a sudo prefix and argv[0] absolutisation, so one
scripted rule matches on a root box, a sudo box and a dev box alike.
Mutation-checked: removing the guard call fails the guard test.
