load-and-test

To rebuild CDS artifacts and reload SQLite fixtures in CAP, run the build, load_sqlite, and test steps sequentially from the cap directory. This workflow ensures a clean, validated development environment after schema or service changes.

The best way to validate CAP models and handlers after schema changes is to execute a sequential workflow that rebuilds CDS artifacts, reloads SQLite fixture data, and runs the full test suite to verify integration and model behavior.

Yes, the CAP test workflow supports failure early reporting by executing the build, load_sqlite, and test steps sequentially. If any step fails, the process stops to ensure a deterministic development cycle.

You need to reload SQLite fixture data in a CAP development cycle after schema or service changes to reset test data quickly. This ensures deterministic test execution and validates models, handlers, and integrations across the project.

Running the full test suite without rebuilding CDS artifacts is not recommended after schema changes. Rebuilding artifacts and reloading SQLite fixtures sequentially ensures a clean environment and accurate validation of model behavior and integrations.
