// TestConsumerStallingPattern is a REPRODUCER for the consumer stalling bug.
//
// This test simulates the exact pattern that causes consumers to stall:
// 1. Consumer reads messages in batches
// 2. Consumer commits offset after each batch
// 3. On next batch, consumer fetches offset+1 but gets empty response
// 4. Consumer stops fetching (BUG!)
//
// Expected: Consumer should retry and eventually get messages
// Actual (before fix): Consumer gives up silently
//
// To run this test against a real load test:
// 1. Start infrastructure: make start
// 2. Produce messages: make clean && rm -rf ./data && TEST_MODE=producer TEST_DURATION=30s make standard-test
// 3. Run reproducer: go test -v -run TestConsumerStallingPattern ./internal/consumer
//
// If the test FAILS, it reproduces the bug (consumer stalls before offset 1000)
// If the test PASSES, it means consumer successfully fetches all messages (bug fixed)
func TestConsumerStallingPattern(t *testing.T) {
t.Skip("REPRODUCER TEST: Requires running load test infrastructure. See comments for setup.")
// This test documents the exact stalling pattern:
// - Consumers consume messages 0-163, commit offset 163
// - Next iteration: fetch offset 164+
// - But fetch returns empty instead of data
// - Consumer stops instead of retrying
//
// The fix involves ensuring:
// 1. Offset+1 is calculated correctly after commit
// 2. Empty fetch doesn't mean "end of partition" (could be transient)
// 3. Consumer retries on empty fetch instead of giving up
// 4. Logging shows why fetch stopped
