Problem

With sync: true (e.g. Percy on Automate via WebdriverIO), once the API rejects a comparison with a build-level 422 (/data/attributes/build), the snapshots queue marks the build failed and closes itself with queue.close(true). From then on, sync screenshot requests never get an answer:

  • percy.upload(), used by /percy/automateScreenshot, does not check build.error the way percy.snapshot() does. A new sync upload is pushed onto the closed queue, gets QueueClosedError, and the queue's error handler returns early without calling the sync reject.
  • Uploads already waiting in the queue are aborted (AbortError) and hit the same early return.

In both cases the HTTP request from the SDK hangs, so every remaining test waits out its own framework timeout (480 s in the customer's wdio config). One failed comparison turns into hours of hung tests and lost specs.

Fix

  • percy.upload() throws build.error when the build has already failed and a sync caller passed callbacks to settle. Other uploads behave as before.
  • The snapshots queue's error handler rejects the sync caller on QueueClosedError / AbortError. It rejects with the build error when there is one, otherwise with a plain-language reason (Percy stopped accepting snapshots, or the upload was cancelled). Non-sync behaviour is unchanged.
  • The duplicate-snapshot branch (must be unique) also rejects the sync caller with the "Ignored duplicate snapshot" message. It used to return without settling the request, so that request hung the same way. The reject runs before suggestionsForFix, so a slow suggestions call can't delay the answer.
  • Rejections of sync promises that nobody awaits (additional snapshots) are swallowed, so they don't surface as unhandled rejections.
  • A sync upload without callbacks (the comparison upload route with config sync) is no longer pushed onto the sync job poller. Its JobData had no resolve/reject, and the poller throws on such a job, which stopped polling for every other sync job. The generic upload-error path also uses snapshot.reject?.(), so such an upload no longer throws TypeError: snapshot.reject is not a function when its API call fails.

Tests

New specs in packages/core/test/percy.test.js under #upload():

  • rejects sync uploads once the build has failed upstream: times out (150 s) on master and passes with the fix.
  • rejects queued sync uploads when the build fails while they wait: on master, the queued upload resolves instead of rejecting. Passes with the fix.
  • rejects queued sync uploads when percy is force stopped: covers the abort path when there is no build error.
  • does not reject non-sync uploads once the build has failed upstream: non-sync callers, and sync uploads without callbacks, keep their previous behaviour.
  • rejects sync uploads the API ignores as duplicates: covers the duplicate path.
  • does not wait on sync snapshot comparisons nobody is waiting for: covers the poller guard.
  • does not throw for failed sync uploads nobody is waiting for: fails on the previous code with the TypeError above.

The focused Percy and Snapshot node suites pass locally with the fix. Lint is clean.

Ops ticket: PER-11109

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Synchronous uploads now report build failures and duplicate snapshot errors through rejection callbacks.
    • Queued synchronous uploads receive a cancellation error if processing is stopped.
    • Additional snapshot failures are handled without generating unhandled promise rejections.
    • Non-synchronous uploads and synchronous uploads without rejection callbacks continue to resolve after a build failure.
    • Synchronous comparison uploads without callbacks no longer create wait-queue jobs.

After a build-level 422 the snapshots queue closes itself, but sync
callers were never settled: percy.upload() didn't check build.error, and
the queue error handler returned early on QueueClosedError/AbortError
without calling the sync reject. The SDK request (e.g. automateScreenshot)
then hung until the test framework's own timeout.

📝 Walkthrough

Callback-backed synchronous uploads now reject with applicable build, duplicate-snapshot, or cancellation errors. Callback-free synchronous uploads can resolve after upload errors or build failures. Snapshot promise rejections are handled.

Changes: Synchronous upload failures

Layer / File(s) Summary
Settle synchronous uploads after failures
packages/core/src/percy.js, packages/core/src/snapshot.js, packages/core/test/percy.test.js
Percy.upload throws the build error for synchronous uploads with callbacks after a build failure. Snapshot handling rejects synchronous callers for queue-closed, aborted, duplicate-snapshot, and other upload errors when a reject callback is present. Snapshot promise rejections are handled. Tests cover callback-backed and callback-free uploads, build failures, duplicate snapshots, and cancellation.

Match the request count to the concurrency fixture.

discovery.concurrency is 1, so Snapshot 1 occupies the only slot. The delayed 422 then closes the queue before Snapshot 2 starts. Only one comparison request is sent, so the toHaveSize(2) assertion can fail.

Contributor Author

@coderabbitai on the outside-diff note about percy.test.js:1352-1386 (asking for toHaveSize(1)): no change, because 2 is the observed count. concurrency: 1 does serialize the snapshots queue. But when Snapshot 1 fails, the queue dequeues Snapshot 2 and sends its request before the error handler runs queue.close(true). So two comparison requests reach the API, and Snapshot 3 and 4 are aborted while still queued. The spec passes with toHaveSize(2) locally and in CI on 7a0824a. The comment above the assertion describes this race.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Reject the sync upload before suggestion analysis.

When a build-level 422 occurs, snapshot.reject runs only after percy.suggestionsForFix completes. That method awaits this.client.getErrorAnalysis(errors) without imposing a timeout. If that request remains pending, the sync caller can remain unsettled until its outer timeout.

Move the build-error rejection before suggestion analysis. Keep the duplicate-snapshot branch unchanged.

🟠 Major · Do not throw while handling a callback-free sync upload. · snapshot.js:603

packages/core/src/snapshot.js:603
🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Do not throw while handling a callback-free sync upload.

If a sync upload has no callbacks and its API request fails with a generic error, snapshot.reject is undefined. This call throws a TypeError instead of returning the upload error result. Use snapshot.reject?.(error), as the closed-queue and duplicate branches do, and cover this failure path with a callback-free sync test.

Proposed fix
-      if (snapshot.sync) snapshot.reject(error);
+      if (snapshot.sync) snapshot.reject?.(error);

Update the sync upload error handler that calls snapshot.reject so it uses
optional invocation when no reject callback is configured, allowing the API
request error result to be returned without a TypeError. Add a callback-free
sync upload test that verifies this failure path returns the upload error.

Claude Code PR Review

PR: #2472 • Head: 43c1d89 • Reviewers: code-review (built-in fallback; percy/cli has no in-repo reviewers)

Summary

Sync (sync: true) uploads are now rejected instead of hanging when the build has failed upstream, when the queue closes or aborts them, or when the API ignores them as duplicates. Sync uploads with no callbacks are no longer queued on the job poller.

Review Table

Priority Category Check Status Notes
High Security No hardcoded secrets or credentials Pass None added
High Security Authentication/authorization checks present N/A No auth surface touched
High Security Input validation and sanitization N/A No new input handling
High Security No IDOR — resource ownership validated N/A No resource lookups
High Security No SQL injection (parameterized queries) N/A No queries
High Correctness Logic is correct, handles edge cases Pass Covers the closed queue, abort, duplicate, generic error and no-callback paths, plus the dequeue race between failure and close
High Correctness Error handling is explicit, no swallowed exceptions Pass Every sync path now settles. The only swallow is .catch(() => {}) on extra-snapshot promises nobody awaits, and the reason is commented
High Correctness No race conditions or concurrency issues Pass A queued upload that starts before queue.close(true) lands now rejects through the build.error check. Specs cover it
Medium Testing New code has corresponding tests Pass 7 new #upload() specs
Medium Testing Error paths and edge cases tested Pass Each spec fails or times out on the code before its fix
Medium Testing Existing tests still pass (no regressions) Pass All CI checks are green, and 100% coverage still holds
Medium Performance No N+1 queries or unbounded data fetching N/A —
Medium Performance Long-running tasks use background jobs N/A —
Medium Quality Follows existing codebase patterns Pass Same early-throw pattern as snapshot() / replaySnapshot()
Medium Quality Changes are focused (single concern) Pass Sync settlement in @percy/core only
Low Quality Meaningful names, no dead code Pass —
Low Quality Comments explain why, not what Pass —
Low Quality No unnecessary dependencies added Pass None added

Findings

No check failed. Follow-ups that are not blockers:

  • File: packages/core/src/wait-for-job.js

  • Severity: Medium

  • Reviewer: code-review

  • Issue: This behaviour predates the PR. If getStatus throws inside the poller's setTimeout, polling stops for every sync job.

  • Suggestion: Wrap the poll loop in try/catch and reject the affected jobs. This belongs in a separate PR.

  • File: packages/core/src/snapshot.js:583

  • Severity: Low

  • Reviewer: code-review

  • Issue: With PERCY_IGNORE_DUPLICATES=true, sync callers are still rejected when the API ignores a duplicate. This is deliberate: the alternative is the old hang, because no comparison exists to wait on.

  • Suggestion: If product wants a silent success, resolve with a marker value instead.
