🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

🟡 Nit Add named-function tool-choice coverage. Both requests use tool_choice="required". They do not exercise tool_choice={"type":"function","function":{"name":"get_weather"}}, which is also part of this fix. Parametrize both tests with required and named choices so each recovery path verifies the tool call and finish_reason.

As per coding guidelines, “Run the pr-test-analyzer agent to verify that tests adequately cover new or changed functionality.”

In `@e2e_test/chat_completions/test_function_calling.py` around lines 1618 - 1626,
Update test_required_non_streaming and the corresponding streaming test to
parameterize tool_choice with both "required" and the named get_weather function
choice. For each parameter, verify the recovery path produces the expected tool
call and finish_reason, preserving the existing request assertions.
