Rsclub2_2andClaude Fable 5.1 91863fee1f Remove Thread.sleep timing coupling from the tests (#109) (#118)
* test: add bounded awaitUntil helper for timing-sensitive tests (#109)

One small class per module (core and app-desktop share no test sources):
polls a condition every 10 ms and fails with a message when the timeout
elapses, so tests no longer guess with fixed Thread.sleep pauses.

* refactor(map): let TileFetcher take its nano clock as a test seam (#109)

A package-private constructor accepts a LongSupplier for the monotonic
clock the retry pause is measured against; the public constructors
delegate with System::nanoTime, so production behaviour is unchanged.
TileFetcherTest advances a fake clock instead of sleeping 20 ms three
times and hoping the 1 ms pause has elapsed.

* refactor(view): put CoalescingTrigger on a DelayTimer seam (#109)

DelayTimer is a package-private one-shot timer (restart/stop) with a
Factory; DelayTimer.SWING wraps javax.swing.Timer and is what the public
constructor uses, so production behaviour is unchanged. A package-private
constructor takes the factory. CoalescingTriggerTest fires a FakeDelayTimer
itself: the negative checks (no second run, cancel prevents the run) are
now deterministic and the four Thread.sleep calls are gone. One test keeps
the real Swing timer end to end, waiting with awaitUntil.

* refactor(view): put LayoutAutosave on the DelayTimer seam (#109)

The public constructor still builds a javax.swing.Timer via DelayTimer.SWING
with the same 750 ms delay; a package-private constructor takes the factory.
LayoutAutosaveTest fires a FakeDelayTimer on the event thread itself, so
"cancelled means not written" no longer rests on a 1.2 s sleep and the
burst test no longer sleeps 300 ms to prove the absence of a second write.
The foreign-thread test keeps the real Swing timer path with awaitUntil.

* refactor(controller): inject scheduler and clock into On4KstConnectionManager (#109)

A package-private constructor takes the ScheduledExecutorService and a
LongSupplier for wall-clock milliseconds; the existing constructor delegates
with the same single-thread supervisor and System::currentTimeMillis, so
production behaviour is unchanged. Session's idle clocks start from the
injected clock instead of a field initializer. The static
parseMessageTimestamp keeps the wall clock: it sanity-checks server
timestamps and is not part of the supervisor's timing.

On4KstConnectionProbeTest drives unansweredProbeUsesExistingReconnectFlow
through a ManualScheduler (immediate work on a real thread, delays and the
five-second tick released on demand) and a fake clock: 90 s of silence
sends the CK probe, which the test reads off the socket, 210 s fails the
session, and the released backoff opens the second connection. The
reflection-based state setup is gone because the state is now reached the
production way; the test takes well under a second instead of seven. The
two ignored await(2 s) results in the server stubs are asserted now.

* test: close the profile picker as soon as it shows instead of after 1.5 s (#109)

The two display-bound picker tests disposed the modal dialog from a
Swing timer after a fixed 1.5 s, which was long enough on a fast machine
only and cost 3 s per run. The closer now waits with awaitUntil for the
dialog to appear and disposes it on the event thread; the suite drops
from 3.0 s to 0.26 s.

Remaining fixed sleep: TopPriorityCandidatesWindowTest waits 400 ms for
Compose's double-tap timeout; whether ImageComposeScene's time can
advance it deterministically is still to be checked.

Fixes #109

KST4Contest

KST4Contest is a Java-based client for the ON4KST chat, developed for coordinated VHF, UHF and microwave contest operation.

The application is developed by Marc Fröhlich (DO5AMF) and since 2026 Philipp Wagner (DN9APW).

What KST4Contest does

KST4Contest combines the ON4KST chat with information that is useful when coordinating contacts during a contest.

Among other things, it can:

  • display and filter stations from the supported ON4KST chat categories;
  • derive band and frequency information from chat messages and station names;
  • maintain Worked and NOT QRV information for the available bands;
  • calculate station priorities from distance, activity and other available information;
  • manage internal skeds and received Win-Test skeds;
  • use AirScout information when evaluating possible aircraft-scatter contacts;
  • display stations, paths and additional propagation information on maps;
  • exchange information with supported logging programs, Win-Test, PSTRotator and a local DX Cluster interface;
  • provide configurable automatic replies for recurring chat requests.

Calculated scores, aircraft-scatter information and path assessments are operating aids. They depend on the available data and should not be treated as guarantees that a contact is possible.

Installation

Ready-to-use packages are available for Windows, Linux and macOS. These packages include the required Java runtime, so a separate Java installation is normally not necessary.

Use the central download page to select the appropriate build:

  • Stable is intended for normal contest operation.
  • Beta contains changes that are being prepared for a stable release.
  • Nightly contains the latest automated development build and is mainly intended for testing.

Documentation

The documentation is available in German and English:

The Markdown sources used for the wiki and the generated PDF manuals are stored in github_docs.

Changes to operating behaviour should be documented together with their purpose and limitations. This is especially important for functions whose result depends on external data, heuristics or information derived from chat messages.

Building from source

Building KST4Contest requires JDK 21. The Gradle Wrapper included in the repository should be used, so a separate Gradle installation is not required.

Linux and macOS:

./gradlew clean build

Windows:

.\gradlew.bat clean build

Repository structure

  • core/ – domain, controller and network code, free of user-interface technology
  • app-desktop/ – the Compose Multiplatform user interface and the packaging tasks
  • github_docs/ – German and English manual sources
  • website/ – project website sources
  • packaging/ – platform-specific packaging files
