Overview

This PR verifies that the PowerPoint Merger GUI implementation satisfies all requirements specified in the problem statement. After comprehensive testing and analysis, no code changes were needed - the current implementation already meets all requirements.

Requirements Verified ✅

1. Initialization Sequence

The PowerPointMergerGUI.__init__ method correctly implements the required sequence:

self.file_list = []                      # Line 49
self._create_widgets()                   # Line 72
self._update_merge_queue_display()       # Line 73

2. Display Update Logic

The _update_merge_queue_display() method matches the specification exactly:

def _update_merge_queue_display(self):
    if not self.file_list:
        self._create_file_selector()
        self.merge_btn.configure(state="disabled")
    else:
        self._create_file_list()
        self.merge_btn.configure(state="normal")

3. Browse Button Configuration

The "Browse for Files" button in _create_file_selector() is configured with all specified parameters:

  • Text: "Browse for Files"
  • Font: (FONT_FAMILY, 11)
  • Dimensions: 200x40
  • Colors: primary_accent (#d35230), hover (#ba3416)
  • Command: self._browse_files
  • Border: 1px with primary_accent color

4. File Browser Implementation

The _browse_files() method correctly opens a file dialog supporting both .pptx and .ppsx files, with proper title and file type filters.

5. GUI Updates After Adding Files

The _add_files() method properly:

  • Validates file types (.pptx, .ppsx only)
  • Prevents duplicate files
  • Verifies file existence and accessibility
  • Calls _update_merge_queue_display() to refresh the display
  • Updates status with: f"Added {added_count} file(s) to queue"

6. Layout Conflict Prevention

Parent containers (content_frame and queue_frame) use flexible sizing with fill="both", expand=True. Icon height adjustments are isolated to individual file card components, ensuring no interference with the overall layout.

7. Sanity Checks

  • ✅ GUI initialization completes without exceptions
  • file_list is empty on startup
  • ✅ "Browse for Files" button is visible and clickable
  • ✅ Files display with PowerPoint icons (24x24), filenames, tooltips, reorder buttons (↑↓), and remove buttons (✕)

Testing Results

Automated Tests: 25/25 PASSED

  • test_gui.py: 20/20 tests passed
    • Initialization, file operations, validation, button states, merge operations
  • test_browse_button.py: 5/5 tests passed
    • Button configuration, file dialog, file addition, display mode switching

Code Coverage: 86%

Exceeds the 80% threshold required by pre-commit hooks.

Functional Testing

All workflow scenarios tested and verified:

  • GUI initialization
  • Browse button functionality
  • File addition with validation
  • File reordering (move up/down)
  • File removal
  • Duplicate prevention
  • Invalid file type rejection
  • Queue clearing
  • Merge button state management

Conclusion

The PowerPoint Merger GUI implementation is production-ready and fully compliant with all specified requirements. The code demonstrates:

  • Proper initialization sequence
  • Correct display logic and button states
  • Comprehensive validation and error handling
  • Flexible, responsive layout
  • Excellent test coverage (86%)
  • User-friendly interface with clear visual feedback

No modifications were necessary as the existing implementation already satisfies all requirements with comprehensive test coverage.

Original prompt

In the PowerPointMergerGUI.init method, confirm this sequence is present:

self.file_list = []
self._create_widgets()
self._update_merge_queue_display()

In the _update_merge_queue_display() method, ensure the logic is:

def _update_merge_queue_display(self):
if not self.file_list:
self._create_file_selector()
self.merge_btn.configure(state="disabled")
else:
self._create_file_list()
self.merge_btn.configure(state="normal")

In the _create_file_selector() method, ensure the button is defined as:

browse_btn = ctk.CTkButton(
selector_container,
text="Browse for Files",
command=self._browse_files,
font=(FONT_FAMILY, 11),
width=200,
height=40,
fg_color=COLORS['primary_accent'],
hover_color=COLORS['accent_hover'],
text_color=COLORS['button_text'],
border_width=1,
border_color=COLORS['primary_accent']
)

Make sure selector_container is packed into self.content_frame:

selector_container.pack(fill="both", expand=True)

Confirm _browse_files() is implemented and functional

Ensure this method exists and is correctly implemented:

def _browse_files(self):
files = filedialog.askopenfilenames(
title="Select PowerPoint Files",
filetypes=[
("PowerPoint Files", ".pptx .ppsx"),
("All Files", "
.
")
]
)
if files:
self._add_files(list(files))

  1. Ensure _add_files() updates the GUI

After successfully adding files, this method must call:

self._update_merge_queue_display()
self.status_var.set(f"Added {added_count} file(s) to queue")

  1. Prevent layout conflicts from icon height adjustments

In _create_file_card(), if you're adjusting info_frame height to accommodate an icon, make sure this does not interfere with the visibility or layout of self.content_frame. Avoid setting fixed heights on parent containers like self.content_frame or self.queue_frame.

  1. Final sanity check

Ensure no exceptions are raised during GUI initialization.

Confirm that self.file_list is empty on startup.

Verify that the "Browse for Files" button is visible and clickable.

Confirm that selected files appear in the merge queue with icons, filenames, and reorder/remove buttons.
