This test currently doesn’t actually validate anything: on the success path there are no assertions, and on the error path the if err != nil { assert.Error(t, err, ...) } check is redundant (and may still be flagged by testifylint as a useless assert). If the intent is purely “doesn’t panic”, wrap the call in require.NotPanics and drop the conditional assert entirely (optionally just ignore err or add a deterministic assertion via mocking).

This issue also appears on line 47 of the same file.

Copilot uses AI. Check for mistakes.
// Error is acceptable in test environment without gh CLI setup
assert.Error(t, err, "Expected error without gh CLI")
}
// If no error and statuses exist, verify they have expected structure
if err == nil && statuses != nil {
for _, status := range statuses {
assert.NotEmpty(t, status.Workflow, "Workflow name should not be empty")
}
}
})
}
