The new backup, dump and deletion files were unknown to the duration
sequencer and gathered in one shard, which ran past its job timeout
while the other three finished in under fifteen minutes.
Vitest's --shard cut the file list into slices of equal length, which gave
the integration shards 954 s to 1 449 s. A sequencer now deals files out by
their measured duration, plus a fixed per-file cost for import and setup,
longest first to the shard with the least work, and starts the longest files
first inside a shard. Timings live in tests/durations/*.json and are
regenerated from Vitest JSON reports with scripts/test-durations.mjs; every
CI shard uploads its report.
Integration shards run three workers each, one cloned database per worker.
The unit suite runs as three projects decided per file from its source:
guards and unit share a module graph inside a worker, isolated keeps a fresh
one for every file that mocks, spies, stubs or resets. In CI it is three
duration-balanced shards next to a job for lint, format, types and the
OpenAPI drift check.
The required check names stay as they were. "Lint, Typecheck & Test" is now
the job that answers for the static checks and every unit shard, the way
"integration" already answers for its shards. The browser-install guard
recognises a direct, flags-only vitest run as a run of the unit suite.
