Complete multi-station production workflow (TC-13 to TC-15)
Summary
- Added product-unit completion after its final configured production step
- Added automatic production-job completion when all required units are completed
- Added multi-station transition guidance to the worker kiosk
- Added completed-product guidance for moving finished units to Finished Goods
- Added production progress messages for partially completed job quantities
- Added a specific completed-job barcode response
- Preserved FIFO processing when one barcode represents the complete production job
- Clarified the difference between moving the same unfinished unit and starting the next product unit
Revised Test Cases
TC-13 — Pass an unfinished unit to its next station
When the current step is completed and the next step for the same product unit belongs to another station:
- The current step is recorded as completed
- The worker kiosk displays
Pass Unit <number> to Next Station - The target station is displayed
- Instructions for the next station are not displayed at the current station
- Scanning the same production-job barcode at the target station displays the next step for the same product unit
TC-14 — Complete one product unit
When a product unit’s final configured step is completed:
- The product unit status becomes
Completed - The completed-unit count increases
- The kiosk displays
Product Complete - The operator is instructed to move the completed unit to Finished Goods
- If additional units remain, the production job remains
Active - The next product unit starts separately at its first assigned station
A completed physical unit is not passed backward to another production station. The next unit is a separate unit selected through FIFO processing.
TC-15 — Complete the production job
When the final step of the final required product unit is completed:
- The final product unit becomes
Completed - All required product units have status
Completed - The production job status becomes
Completed - The kiosk displays both
Product CompleteandProduction Complete - No next-station instruction is displayed
- Later scans of the job barcode return
This production job is complete.
Verification
Automated test suite:
python -m pytest -v
Result:
15 passed
The complete regression suite covers TC-01 through TC-15.
Manual verification used Day 5 Multi-Station Test with:
- Production quantity: 2
- Step 1 at Station 4 using Part C
- Step 2 at Station 5 using Part D
- One shared production-job barcode
Verified behavior:
- Unit 1 moved from Station 4 to Station 5
- Unit 1 became
Completedafter its final step - The job remained
Activewhile Unit 2 was pending - Unit 2 completed the same station sequence
- Both product units became
Completed - The production job became
Completed - A later barcode scan displayed the completed-job error
- Station inventory was deducted for each completed step
The kiosk wording was corrected so a finished unit is directed to Finished Goods while the next unit starts separately at its assigned first station.
