OCPBUGS-111707: Flush async feature flag updates immediately - #16949
Conversation
Deferring all setFeatureFlag calls until the next render left flag-gated plugin routes and nav items missing for ~10s after an async console.flag/hookProvider resolved. Keep render-time updates deferred, but dispatch async updates right away. Fixes openshift#16922 Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

Update flagsRef when dispatching so consecutive async setFeatureFlag calls (e.g. true then false before Redux re-renders) are not skipped against a stale selector snapshot. Strengthen unit coverage. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

you can't use and sync your own flagsRef like this because this is not the only place where feature flags are set, see useFlag
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Agreed — removed the local flagsRef sync. We now always dispatch pending updates (Immutable Map.set is already a no-op when unchanged), so we don't shadow FLAGS that other callers update and that useFlag reads.
Always dispatch pending setFeatureFlag updates instead of syncing a local FLAGS snapshot. Flags are also set elsewhere and read via useFlag, so a locally mutated copy can go stale. Immutable Map.set is already a no-op when the value is unchanged.

Try to use renderWithProviders instead of mocking redux (mocking redux in unit tests is an antipattern)
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Switched the unit tests to renderHookWithProviders (same helpers module as renderWithProviders) so they assert against a real Redux store instead of mocking dispatch/selector.
Also replaced isRenderingRef with a coalesced queueMicrotask flush so child FeatureFlagExtensionHookResolver re-renders cannot dispatch during render.
Replace render-phase isRenderingRef tracking with a coalesced queueMicrotask flush so child FeatureFlagExtensionHookResolver re-renders cannot dispatch during render. Drop the stale flagsRef comment and exercise the controller through renderHookWithProviders against a real Redux store.

renderHookWithProviders
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Updated to use createTestPluginStore from pluginTestUtils and pass that instance into renderHookWithProviders.
We still lightly mock @console/internal/plugins at module load (also via createTestPluginStore) because unit-test-utils / the FLAGS reducer import that module before the test can inject a store — without it Jest loads real local plugins and fails schema validation.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The purpose of flushScheduledRef is as a lock to prevent multiple queued microtasks of flushPendingUpdates from being called in parallel right?
Then shouldn't the unlock, flushPendingUpdates.current=false, be placed after pendingUpdatesRef is accessed, instead of before?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Yes — unlock after taking the batch. Order is now: detach pendingUpdatesRef → set flushScheduledRef.current = false → dispatch the detached updates. That way a reentrant scheduleFlush during dispatch can queue a follow-up microtask for the new map.
Unlock after taking the batch so reentrant setFeatureFlag during dispatch can schedule a follow-up microtask. Use createTestPluginStore in tests and cover the reentrant-update path.

Removed — thanks for checking. Switched to the same createTestPluginStore + pluginStore pattern as the other console-app tests, with no plugins mock.
