Feature testing

Every feature ships its own test suite organized in layers. The framework provides fixtures, helpers, and conventions so that test setup is consistent across all features.

├── conftest.py           # Shared fixtures
├── unit/                 # Mocked, no DB — fast
├── integration/          # Real test DB
├── functional/           # Flask test_client, HTTP

└── load/                 # Locust (performance)

• Test environment — how the test database and Flask app are configured
• Fixtures — framework fixtures, custom fixtures, scope rules
• Test levels — unit, integration, functional, e2e — with real examples
• Running tests — CLI commands, flags, keyword filters

By default, feature:test runs unit + integration + functional. E2E and load require explicit flags.
