- al-testing-review.md: the generic ExpectedError cue's asserterror
Assert.IsTrue/IsFalse exclusion was unconditional, but the
specialized rule it deferred to only claims the pure-inversion
shape. A test expecting the guarded Boolean-returning call itself to
raise fell through both routes. Narrowed the exclusion to the same
inversion-only condition the specialized cue already uses.
- asserterror-needs-expectederror-and-code.md: the rollback-sentinel
exception (a trailing asserterror Error(...) used purely to force a
fixture rollback, not to verify a specific failure) previously lived
only in skill routing prose. Encoded it directly in the article's
Anti Pattern section so every consumer of the knowledge base sees it,
not just this one skill.
- commit-shared-test-fixture-inside-lazy-initialize.good.al/.bad.al:
replaced hand-rolled Item.Init()/Insert(true) with
LibraryInventory.CreateItem, so the canonical fixture doesn't itself
trigger use-library-codeunits-for-test-fixtures.
- table-relation-test-exclude-known-invalid-relations-via-event.good.al/
.bad.al: declared minimal "Sample Setup"/"Sample Header" tables
inline instead of referencing undefined symbols, matching this
repo's own convention that every fixture is self-contained.
- commit-shared-test-fixture-inside-lazy-initialize: three sub-issues.
Recommended TestIsolation = Codeunit instead of listing Disabled as an
equal option - Disabled never rolls back at all ("tests are not
isolated from each other" per the property's own docs), so a fixture
this pattern commits under Disabled is permanent database
contamination unless something else tears it down; Disabled is now
only mentioned alongside that explicit teardown requirement. Added
precedence in al-testing-review.md so the deliberate end-of-test
asserterror Error(...) rollback sentinel isn't also flagged by the
generic asserterror-needs-expectederror-and-code rule. Rewrote both
fixtures to actually demonstrate the pattern: persisted fixture data
(an Item record) instead of an empty comment, a second [Test] method
that depends on the fixture surviving into it, and an explicit
Subtype = TestRunner / TestIsolation = Codeunit runner codeunit.
- table-relation-test-exclude-known-invalid-relations-via-event:
the length/type rule was stated as one global requirement. Verified
ValidateFieldRelation in codeunit 134926 directly (BCApps reference
clone) and split it into the two branches the source actually has:
a field with any unconditional relation needs exact length and exact
resolved type; a field whose relations are all conditional only fails
on being shorter (longer is fine) than the largest related field, and
when the required type is specifically Code, a Text source passes too
- a tolerance that does not apply on the unconditional side and does
not extend to a required Text.
Rebased onto upstream/main (one conflict in
transactionmodel-attribute-governs-test-transactions.md - upstream had
already linked its sample references via the READ convention, ours
added a Source section; merged both). Also converted the 3 remaining
plain-backtick sample references in this PR to the READ-convention
markdown-link form, same fix as #156/#157/#158.
- commit-shared-test-fixture-inside-lazy-initialize.md: fundamentally
rewritten. AutoCommit is the documented default TransactionModel, not
AutoRollback. Explains the real mechanism (Commit() protects a fixture
from the test method's own later deliberate rollback, per Codeunit.Run/
TransactionModel-property semantics) and the TestIsolation dependency
(Disabled/Codeunit survive across methods, Function does not). Fixtures
rewritten to demonstrate the actual failure/success shape.
- transactionmodel-attribute-governs-test-transactions.md: now states the
AutoCommit default explicitly and agrees with the article above, closing
the contradiction Jesper flagged between the two testing articles.
- Deleted confirm-needs-strsubstno-before-confirmhandler-sees-substituted-text
(.md/.good.al/.bad.al): the underlying platform bug (microsoft/
ALAppExtensions#23935) was closed as completed in Feb 2024; cannot be
reproduced or bc-version-pinned on any currently supported version.
- table-relation-test-exclude-known-invalid-relations-via-event.md: added
the [Scope('OnPrem')] boundary verified against BCApps' Table Relation
Test codeunit.
- use-assert-isfalse-not-asserterror-for-boolean-checks.md: added a Scope
section resolving the overlap with asserterror-needs-expectederror-and-code.
- al-testing-review.md: fixed the shared-fixture cue to catch the actual
anti-pattern instead of the compliant shape, added the missing cue for
use-assert-isfalse-not-asserterror-for-boolean-checks, wired precedence
between it and the generic asserterror rule, and removed the cue for the
deleted article.
- Added in-file Source provenance (specific fluxxus.nl post per article,
with what was independently verified vs. taken from the post) to the
three surviving externally-inspired articles, per Jesper's request that
provenance live in the knowledge file itself, not only the PR description.

- transactionmodel-attribute-governs-test-transactions.md: the "Commit
causes an error" behavior is specific to an explicitly declared
AutoRollback attribute. A test method with no TransactionModel
attribute at all is a distinct, valid shape — BCApps' own
codeunit 134915 "ERM Online Mapping Setup" commits inside a lazy
Initialize() with no attribute declared, cleaning up via a manual
asserterror at the end. Evidence for commit-shared-test-fixture-
inside-lazy-initialize.md (this PR), which is correct as submitted.
- confirm-needs-strsubstno-before-confirmhandler-sees-substituted-text.md:
reframe as a known, unconfirmed-fix platform defect
(microsoft/ALAppExtensions#23935) rather than designed behavior; add
the Message/MessageHandler asymmetry as supporting evidence.
- table-relation-test-exclude-known-invalid-relations-via-event.md:
note the test-app-only consumer dependency; correct "walks every
TableRelation field property in the app" to the actual tenant-wide
Table Relations Metadata scope across installed apps.
- Wire confirm-needs-strsubstno, commit-shared-test-fixture-inside-
lazy-initialize, and table-relation-test-exclude-known-invalid-
relations-via-event into al-testing-review.md's candidate-selection
cues.

* Fix bc-version overflow and pathless-row identity in bounded retrieval
Catalog matching compared an Int32 -BCVersion against a bigint range bound.
PowerShell coerces the right operand to the left operand's type, so a bound
wider than Int32 threw a conversion error and failed the whole domain catalog
rather than the single row. Metadata validation already accepts such bounds,
so compare as bigint on both sides.
The shared pager built its oversized-row message with $row.path, which
throws under Set-StrictMode -Version Latest when a row carries no path,
replacing the explicit bound failure with a property-lookup error. Resolve the
path defensively for dictionary and object rows so the offset-based fallback
is reachable.
Both paths gain regression coverage that fails without these fixes.

The narrowed UI-handler guidance still stated the execution rule without the
qualifier the linked Microsoft reference uses. The article said every listed
handler must execute at least once, and the testing leaf skill asked for
`[HandlerFunctions(...)]` to match the invoked handlers exactly. The reference
says every *nonoptional* listed handler must execute, and that send-notification
and recall-notification handlers can be optional. As written, an agent could
flag a deliberately unused optional notification handler.
The discriminator is narrower than the handler type. Both
`[SendNotificationHandler([HandlerIsOptional: Boolean])]` and
`[RecallNotificationHandler([HandlerIsOptional: Boolean])]` take an explicit
optionality argument, so `[SendNotificationHandler(true)]` is exempt while the
same attribute written without the argument stays nonoptional like every other
handler type. Keying the exemption on the argument rather than the type keeps it
checkable from the diff and avoids the opposite false positive, where an agent
stops flagging genuinely nonoptional notification handlers.
Changes:
- The article now states the nonoptional qualifier, explains that optionality is
declared rather than inferred, and adds an explicit do-not-flag clause. That
clause also forbids proposing removal, because the listed entry is what keeps
the test passing on the runs where the notification does fire.
- The testing leaf skill carries the same boundary in its `ui-handlers-in-tests`
cue, and its mechanical-fix list no longer allows removing a listed optional
notification handler as a one-click suggestion.
- `SendNotificationHandler` and `RecallNotificationHandler` were missing from the
skill's testing token list, so notification handlers were not reliably
surfaced to the relevance step at all. Both are now listed.
- The good sample gains a test that lists an unreached
`[SendNotificationHandler(true)]`; the bad sample gains the mirror image, an
unreached `[SendNotificationHandler]` with no optionality argument. The pair
differs only by that argument, which is the point.
- `evaluation/review-fixtures.json` pins the testing domain to
`ui-handlers-in-tests` so the boundary is exercised: the good sample is the
clean control at `minimumCleanRate` 1.0 and the bad sample is the expected
finding. Keywords were retagged with `notification` and `optional-handler`.
validate_frontmatter.py reports 0 errors; Test-ReviewFixtures.ps1 passes with
32 cases across 16 leaf domains and resolves the testing fixture to this article.

* Emit human-readable domain label on review findings
Add an optional findings[].domain field to the DO review output contract so
each finding carries its own human-readable review-domain display label. Leaf
review skills set it on every finding they emit; the al-code-review super-skill
copies it verbatim during rollup and sets it to "Agent" for its own
cross-cutting agent findings. This decouples consumers from BCQuality's domain
taxonomy: they render finding.domain verbatim instead of maintaining a
sub-skill-id -> label map.

* Define domain display-label constraints
Clarify that review domains may contain internal whitespace, punctuation, case-sensitive text, and non-ASCII characters. Require consumers to preserve and safely encode the complete label instead of relying on lossy slugs, matching the replacement BC-ALAgents consumer.
