@copilot Implement tests for the remaining modules too, also review the failing tests. |
I've implemented comprehensive test suites for all 5 remaining modules that previously had no test coverage: ✅ New Test Suites Completed (254 tests total):
🔍 Failing Tests Review:
📊 Coverage Improvement:
The new tests follow repository patterns with comprehensive edge case testing, error handling validation, integration testing, mocking strategies for external dependencies, and parameter validation. Some cross-platform compatibility issues remain to be addressed, but the foundation for complete test coverage is now established. |

Theres no need to explicitly check that it was imported, remove this and similar calls from other tests

As long as the type is available thats all thats required, no need to check type accelerators.

No reason to test adding justification separately, one test for all methods of creating the attribute will suffice.

Bad test, we can't determine which version of Powershell is going to run the tests and it isn't tested against all versions.

This PR adds 254 comprehensive Pester tests across 5 previously untested PowerShell modules in
src/common, implementing a streamlined testing approach based on code review feedback.What's Changed
New Test Coverage Added
✅ Registry.psm1 - Windows registry operations with cross-platform compatibility
✅ UsersAndAccounts.psm1 - ADSI user and group management
✅ PackageManager.psm1 - Chocolatey package management integration
✅ Connection.psm1 - Microsoft services connection management (Graph, Exchange, IPPS)
✅ Ensure.psm1 - Module installation, administrator checks, and network setup
Test Quality Improvements
The test suite follows a focused, minimal approach that eliminates redundancy while maintaining comprehensive coverage:
-Skip:(-not $IsWindows)Architecture
Tests are designed with surgical precision:
Module Coverage Improvement
This approach significantly improves test coverage while establishing clean, maintainable testing patterns that focus on actual functionality rather than implementation details.
