Test error in prompt is malformed

[kgilpin]

The <test-error> in the code generation prompt is malformed, having only one character per line:

## Preventing test errors

Generate code that avoids the following test errors:

The test error should be something like this:

ERROR: test_paginator_not_iterable (pagination.test_paginator_iteration.PaginatorIterationTests)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/testbed/tests/pagination/test_paginator_iteration.py", line 17, in test_paginator_not_iterable

AttributeError: 'Paginator' object has no attribute 'orphans'

Title: Correct Malformed Test Error Display in Prompt

Problem: The test error prompt in the code generation tool is malformed, displaying the test error characters scattered across lines. This impacts the user's ability to efficiently identify and understand the test error, thereby hindering effective troubleshooting and debugging processes.

Analysis: The issue seems to arise from an incorrect formatting method or an unintended transformation during the preparation or rendering of the test error string that breaks it into single-character lines. This could be due to a logic error in how the text is processed or displayed, causing it to lose its intended structure. This might involve string manipulation errors, incorrect iteration over characters instead of lines, or mishandling of the encoding/decoding process if data transformation occurs between components expecting certain formats. Additionally, rendering settings might not be translating newlines or other whitespace characters appropriately.

The functionality should ensure that the complete error message is displayed exactly as it is captured, maintaining the structure and formatting necessary for clear and actionable error reporting. Specifically, the message should appear in a multi-line format that retains the essential context from stack traces or detailed logs. The malformed rendering suggests an opportunity to review the text handling process associated with 'test-error' content types.

Proposed Changes:

1. Text Processing Module: Investigate the module responsible for handling test errors in the code generation prompts. Ensure that the errors are processed as sets of lines rather than individual characters. If any string manipulation functions or list comprehensions are employed, ensure they operate on a line level rather than character level.

2. Prompt Construction Method: Review and amend the method where test errors are injected into the code generation prompts. Verify that the error message is being formatted correctly before being inserted into the template. Check guidelines or requirements for text rendering, ensuring compliance with the expected input format.

3. Rendering Layer: If there is a rendering layer or templating engine that formats how the prompt with test errors is displayed, inspect and correct any settings that could be improperly parsing newline characters or other delimiters, resulting in incorrect visual output.

4. Error Logging Mechanism: Confirm that during any logging or storing of such error messages, no transformations occur that might alter the intended line-based structure. Consider using consistent and robust serializing/deserializing methods to handle these text blocks if stored and later retrieved.

Addressing these points will restore the integrity of the error message displays in prompts, providing accurate and readable test error information essential for debugging.
