dotfiles-validation-and-qa

Dotfiles configuration validation checks package installation and file structure against defined standards. This process runs via a test suite command, verifying that setup scripts and hooks within your repository adhere to expected specifications.

Managing dotfiles test suites involves listing available tests, adding new validation scripts, and registering them with a test runner. This ensures comprehensive coverage and reliable execution of configuration checks across your repository.

Coverage gap analysis identifies missing validation checks in existing dotfiles test scripts. By inventorying available test suites and mapping them against configuration standards, you can pinpoint untested package installations and file structures.

Dotfiles QA automation supports both macOS and Linux environments, validating package installations and configuration file structures. It ensures cross-platform adherence to defined standards through testing scripts and hooks within the repository.

System configuration validation tests require ripgrep, jq, git, and python3 installed in your environment. These tools enable the test runner to execute scripts, parse configuration data, and validate repository hooks effectively.

Adding new dotfiles tests involves creating validation scripts and registering them for the test runner. This expands the test inventory, allowing the QA suite to check additional configuration files and package setup routines.
