Closes #137

Group of workout-hardening fixes for TPC-B and TPC-C transaction correctness edge cases.

TPC-B

  • Validates every required section (drop_schema, create_schema) and every named transaction query (workload_tx_tpcb/{update_account,get_balance,update_teller,update_branch,insert_history}) before measured execution. A custom SQL file that omits a statement now fails with a descriptive tpc-b: missing query <section>/<query> error instead of reporting a successful noop iteration.

TPC-C New-Order

  • Missing customer and warehouse rows are now distinguished from successful (empty) reads and reported as transaction errors.
  • Missing stock rows now fail the transaction (no longer silently skipped), preventing partial orders.
  • Missing item rows fail the transaction, except the explicit invalid-item rollback sentinel (the spec's 1% invalid-item case), which is preserved.
  • Rollback errors are propagated: a failed rollback is no longer discarded, and the spec-mandated rollback is only reported as success when the rollback completed.

TPC-C population validation

  • CC1/CC4 aggregate query errors now fail their check before values are compared; two zero fallback values can no longer spuriously pass.

Tests

  • internal/workloads/tpcb/sql_validation_test.go — missing sections and every missing required query.
  • internal/workloads/tpcc/neworder_test.go — nil/missing customer, warehouse, item, and stock rows, plus rollback failure/success propagation.
  • internal/workloads/tpcc/validate_test.go — CC1/CC4 query-error vs. equal/unequal aggregate comparison.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • TPC-B now reports clear errors when required SQL sections or queries are missing or empty.
    • TPC-C new-order processing now detects missing customer, warehouse, item, and stock records.
    • Rollback failures are no longer hidden and are reported correctly.
    • TPC-C consistency checks now fail when validation queries encounter errors.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for TPC-B SQL validation and TPC-C transaction and consistency error handling.

TPC-B validates required sections and named transaction queries before
measured execution, so a custom SQL file that omits statements fails with
a named missing query instead of a silent noop iteration.

TPC-C new-order now treats absent customer, warehouse, item, and stock rows
as transaction errors (except the spec's invalid-item rollback sentinel),
and rollback failures are propagated so an unknown transaction outcome is
never reported as success. Population validation fails CC1/CC4 when their
aggregate queries error instead of comparing zero fallback values.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

TPC-B now validates required SQL sections and queries before setup execution. TPC-C now reports missing new-order rows, propagates rollback failures, and fails CC1 or CC4 checks when aggregate queries return errors.

Changes

Workload correctness fixes

Layer / File(s) Summary
TPC-B SQL validation
internal/workloads/tpcb/tpcb.go, internal/workloads/tpcb/sql_validation_test.go, CHANGELOG.md
TPC-B checks required setup sections, named transaction queries, and non-empty query bodies before setup execution. Tests verify descriptive errors for missing sections and queries.
TPC-C new-order error handling
internal/workloads/tpcc/tpcc.go, internal/workloads/tpcc/neworder_test.go
New-order processing reports missing customer, warehouse, item, and stock rows. Rollback errors are propagated, including failures of the invalid-item rollback path. Tests cover missing rows and rollback outcomes.
TPC-C population validation checks
internal/workloads/tpcc/validate.go, internal/workloads/tpcc/validate_test.go
CC1 and CC4 checks retain aggregate query errors and fail before value comparison. Tests cover query failures, equal aggregates, and unequal aggregates.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to aefbd

The New-Order transaction can incorrectly report a successful expected rollback when an earlier required item is missing, masking a transaction error and allowing an invalid order outcome; this should be fixed before merge.

A named query declared with --= name but no statement body still returns
ok=true from SQL.Query, so presence validation let it through and Iterate
ran an empty exec. Guard the body too: an empty body now fails with a
descriptive empty-query error before measured execution.

- Around line 500-503: Update finishNewOrder’s forced-rollback handling to
validate all earlier regular item IDs before returning errRollbackSentinel.
Return the required errItemNotFound when any non-forced item is missing, and
return errRollbackSentinel only when the forced final item is the sole missing
item; preserve the rollback counter update for the sentinel path.
