Goal

Cover the QA cases that needed mock server changes first: channel search (5934) and blocking a user in a direct message channel (6070, 6072). Also restore the six mute and block state tests that were descoped from #6610 (11563, 11566, 6071, 11575, 11560, 11567), since the mock server now keeps that state stable.

Requires the mock server support from GetStream/stream-chat-test-mock-server#63. This PR's own e2e checks run against the mock server main, so they will fail on the new tests until that PR merges; the workflow run linked below passes mock_server_branch instead.

Resolves AND-1359

Implementation

  • The six descoped tests come back by reverting the descope commit, unchanged.
  • The Compose sample gains a Channel search flag: a switch on the custom login screen, stored in CustomSettings, that makes ChannelsActivity and ChatsActivity configure the channel list with SearchMode.Channels instead of SearchMode.Messages. The e2e flavor's StartupActivity assigns the flag from a CHANNEL_SEARCH launch extra on every start, so a value left by a previous test cannot leak into the next one. StreamTestCase exposes it as useChannelSearch.
  • BackendRobot.generateChannels gains channelNames (searchable names for the seeded channels) and withDirectMessageChannel (a two-member channel with a member-based cid and no name, shown under the participant's name).
  • New ChannelSearchTests (5934): searching by name shows only the matching channel. New robot pieces: searchForChannel, openChannel(channelName), assertChannelCount and assertChannelWithName.
  • Two new tests in ModerationTests: blocking the participant in the direct message channel offers the unblock option (6070), and hides the channel from the channel list until the unblock, asserted from the channel list in both directions (6072). The direct message channel uses seeded messages because ParticipantRobot posts to the group channel; seeded messages alternate authors starting with the user, so the message with text "2" belongs to the participant.

Testing

  • All tests were run locally on an API 35 emulator against the mock server PR branch, one method at a time with data cleared between runs: the 3 new tests, the 6 restored tests, and a regression set (both SearchTests, the giphy ephemeral cancel test, two ChannelListTests preview tests, and all 11 AuthTests for the token error health check paths). All pass with no retry attempts.
  • spotlessCheck, detekt and apiCheck pass.
  • E2E full API matrix run on this branch with the mock server branch: e2e-test-cron run.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added optional channel search, allowing users to find channels by name from the channel list.
    • Added a channel search toggle to the custom login settings.
    • Expanded moderation actions to support muting/unmuting and blocking/unblocking message authors.
    • Added channel swipe actions for muting and unmuting channels.
  • Tests

    • Added end-to-end coverage for channel search, channel muting, moderation actions, and direct-message behavior.

This reverts commit 12bbb96.
The mock server now sends the live own user in its health check,
so the mute and block state these tests assert is stable.
A switch on the custom login screen makes the channel list header
search for channels instead of messages. The e2e flavor assigns it
from a CHANNEL_SEARCH launch extra on every start.
The mock can now seed named channels and a two-member direct message
channel, searching by channel name returns only the match, and blocking
the participant hides the direct message channel until the unblock.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The Compose sample adds channel search configuration and E2E coverage. It also adds channel mute/unmute actions and expands moderation tests for message authors and direct-message participants.

Changes

Channel search

Layer / File(s) Summary
Channel search setting and UI wiring
stream-chat-android-compose-sample/src/main/java/...
The sample persists the channel search flag, exposes it in custom login, and selects channel or message search mode.
Search test configuration and data generation
stream-chat-android-compose-sample/src/androidTestE2eDebug/..., stream-chat-android-e2e-test/src/main/...
E2E tests pass the search flag at launch and generate named channels or direct-message channels.
Channel search validation
stream-chat-android-compose-sample/src/androidTestE2eDebug/...
The test robot searches by channel name and verifies the matching channel count and visibility.

Moderation and channel actions

Layer / File(s) Summary
Moderation selectors and robot actions
stream-chat-android-compose-sample/src/androidTestE2eDebug/...
Page objects and UserRobot support mute, unmute, block, unblock, channel lookup, swipe actions, and retry-based context-menu opening.
Moderation state assertions
stream-chat-android-compose-sample/src/androidTestE2eDebug/...
Robot assertions verify muted icons and message-author mute or block menu options.
Channel mute and unmute tests
stream-chat-android-compose-sample/src/androidTestE2eDebug/...
ChannelActionsTests covers mute and unmute through channel swipe actions.
User moderation and direct-message tests
stream-chat-android-compose-sample/src/androidTestE2eDebug/...
ModerationTests covers author mute, author block, participant blocking, and direct-message channel removal and restoration.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 18026

The change adds channel-search and moderation-state coverage, but an e2e launch can retain a previous search mode when no base URL is supplied, causing tests to exercise the wrong behavior; channel names containing reserved URL characters and incomplete moderation-menu assertions also leave bounded correctness risks that should be addressed before merging.

Poem

A rabbit checks each channel’s name,
Then swipes mute and swipes again.
Blocked menus change their tune,
Unblock brings the chat back soon.
Search and tests now hop in line.

The mute and block option asserts also check that the opposite option
is absent, the CHANNEL_SEARCH extra applies on every harness launch so
the flag cannot leak into the tests that run without a mock server, and
channel names are URL-encoded before entering the /mock query.

Looks good, nothing blocking. One substantive comment (the context-menu retry loop), rest are nits.

The message menu rebuilds its options from the collected user state while
it stays open, so the helper opens it once and waits for the option instead
of reopening it. The mute and block asserts close the menu when they are
done. The channel search test asserts the pre-search count so the 3 to 1
transition is the assertion. The channel name selectors are getters, and
the two identical search functions are one, since the app search mode
decides what is searched.
