## ✅ Verification Checklist

Before committing code changes:

```powershell
# 1. Run syntax validation
.\Run-TestSuite.ps1 -TestLevel 1
# Expected: "SUCCESS: All critical tests passed!"

# 2. Check module loading
.\Run-TestSuite.ps1 -TestLevel 2
# Expected: All modules load without fatal errors

# 3. Test application startup
.\MiracleBoot.ps1
# Expected: Menu displays without errors

# 4. Verify no unexpected errors
$Error.Count -eq 0
# Expected: True
```

## 🐛 Common Issues & Fixes

### Problem: "execution policy does not allow"
```powershell
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser
```

### Problem: "The term 'ps1' is not recognized"
```powershell
cd 'c:\Users\zerou\Downloads\MiracleBoot_v7_1_1 - Github code'
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\Run-TestSuite.ps1
```

### Problem: Syntax errors in file
```powershell
# Check file encoding (should be UTF-8)
file -i .\filename.ps1

# Check for smart quotes or special characters
Get-Content .\filename.ps1 | Select-String '[""–—'']'
```

### Problem: Module fails to load
```powershell
# Clear any cached modules
Remove-Module * -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

# Then run tests again
.\Run-TestSuite.ps1 -TestLevel 1
```

## 🚀 Before Deploying Changes

1. **Modify code** in your text editor
2. **Run tests:** `.\Run-TestSuite.ps1 -TestLevel 1`
3. **Check errors:** Should show all files as [OK]
4. **Test application:** `.\MiracleBoot.ps1` (type 'q' to exit)
5. **Review output:** No errors should appear
6. **Commit changes:** Once tests pass

### Common Solutions
1. **File encoding issue?** → Use script to normalize all files
2. **Syntax error?** → Check for smart quotes and special characters
3. **Module load error?** → Verify file paths and PowerShell version
4. **Application crash?** → Check admin rights and system prerequisites

## 🎯 Test Levels Explained

### Level 1: Syntax (FAST - 30 seconds)
- Checks if all .ps1 files parse correctly
- No execution, just parsing
- Best for: Quick validation before commit
- **Result if passes:** ✓ Code is syntactically valid

### Level 2: Module Loading (MEDIUM - 2 minutes)
- Loads modules to check for runtime errors
- Tests dot-sourcing and function definitions
- Best for: Verifying modules work together
- **Result if passes:** ✓ Modules load without errors

### Level 3: System Checks (FULL - 5 minutes)
- Validates PowerShell version
- Checks system prerequisites
- Tests admin rights
- Best for: Full validation before deployment
- **Result if passes:** ✓ System ready for application

## 🔄 Continuous Testing

After any code change:
```powershell
# Always run this
.\Run-TestSuite.ps1 -TestLevel 1

# Especially if modifying:
# - MiracleBoot.ps1
# - WinRepairCore.ps1
# - WinRepairTUI.ps1
# - Any module with imports
```

## ✨ Pro Tips

1. **Keep test suite in root** - Easier to run from any location
2. **Run Level 1 tests** - After every code change (takes 30 seconds)
3. **Run Level 3 tests** - Before committing to repo (takes 5 minutes)
4. **Check $Error array** - Even if tests pass: `$Error.Count`
5. **Use -ExecutionPolicy Bypass** - If having permission issues
