Build and Test

Build and test the CVOYA graph solution. Configuration defaults to Debug; pass one as $1 to override (for example, /build-and-test Release). Use the repository test runner so new test projects are picked up without duplicating an inventory in this skill.

Steps

1. Run the fast lane. It builds the solution, discovers all test projects under tests/, excludes benchmarks and external-service projects, and includes the in-memory provider contract suite:

   configuration="${1:-Debug}"
   ./scripts/run-tests.sh --configuration "$configuration" --lane fast --disable-diff-engine
   

2. Run each relevant database-backed lane after starting its repository container or configuring an existing service. Reuse the build from step 1:

   configuration="${1:-Debug}"
   ./scripts/run-tests.sh --configuration "$configuration" --lane neo4j --no-build --disable-diff-engine
   ./scripts/run-tests.sh --configuration "$configuration" --lane age --no-build --disable-diff-engine
   

   scripts/containers/start-neo4j.sh prepares the default Neo4j endpoint. scripts/containers/start-age.sh prints the AGE_CONNECTION_STRING to export. The runner can start either service itself with --neo4j or --age.

3. When both services are available, --lane all is the single full-suite command. Run package-reference validation separately when build or packaging behavior changes:

   configuration="${1:-Debug}"
   ./scripts/run-tests.sh --configuration "$configuration" --lane all --disable-diff-engine
   dotnet msbuild eng/PackageValidation.proj -target:Validate
   

4. Report the project and test counts printed by the runner, failing test names and errors, and any database-backed lane that could not run. A fast-lane pass is not full provider validation.

The provider/service matrix and compatibility-suite semantics are canonical in AGENTS.md.
