Development

# Run all tests
mvn clean verify

# Run unit tests only
mvn test

# Run E2E tests only
mvn test -pl qctl-integration-tests

# Build native image (requires GraalVM)
JAVA_HOME=/path/to/graalvm mvn clean package -DskipTests -Pnative

# Run with JVM (faster iteration)
mvn clean package -DskipTests
java -jar qctl-cli/target/qctl-cli-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar --help

Testing

The project includes comprehensive E2E tests in qctl-integration-tests/:

Test Class	Coverage
InitCommandE2ETest	CLI flags and basic init behavior
InitCommandFullE2ETest	Variable substitution, computed vars, transforms
NativeBinaryE2ETest	Native binary smoke tests (requires build)

Test fixtures in src/test/resources/fixtures/templates/ provide offline, deterministic testing.

Releasing

Create a tagged release to trigger the full CI/CD pipeline:

git tag v1.0.0
git push origin v1.0.0

This automatically:

1. Runs tests on Ubuntu
2. Builds native binaries for all platforms
3. Creates a GitHub Release with binaries attached
4. Pushes Docker image to ghcr.io/qrun-io/qctl
5. Updates package manifests (Homebrew, Scoop, AUR) with correct checksums
