refactor: enhance testing infrastructure with property-based tests and documentation (#147)

* feat: implement property-based testing with gopter Add comprehensive property-based testing infrastructure to verify mathematical properties and invariants of critical code paths. **Property Tests Added:** - String manipulation properties (normalization, cleaning, formatting) - Permission merging properties (idempotency, YAML precedence) - Uses statement formatting properties (structure, @ symbol presence) - URL parsing properties (org/repo extraction, empty input handling) **Mutation Tests Created:** - Permission parsing mutation resistance tests - Version validation mutation resistance tests - String/URL parsing mutation resistance tests Note: Mutation tests currently disabled due to go-mutesting compatibility issues with Go 1.25+. Test code is complete and ready for execution when tool compatibility is resolved. **Infrastructure Updates:** - Add gopter dependency for property-based testing - Create Makefile targets for property tests - Update CI workflow to run property tests - Add test-quick target for rapid iteration - Update CLAUDE.md with advanced testing documentation **Test Results:** - All unit tests passing (411 test cases across 12 packages) - All property tests passing (5 test suites, 100+ random inputs each) - Test coverage: 73.9% overall (above 72% threshold) * fix: improve version cleaning property test to verify trimming Address code review feedback: The 'non-v content is preserved' property test now properly verifies that CleanVersionString itself trims whitespace, rather than pre-trimming the input before testing. Changes: - Pass raw content directly to CleanVersionString (not pre-trimmed) - Assert result == strings.TrimSpace(content) to verify trimming behavior - Update generator to produce strings with various whitespace patterns: - Plain strings - Leading spaces - Trailing spaces - Both leading and trailing spaces - Tabs and newlines This ensures the property actually exercises untrimmed inputs and verifies CleanVersionString's trimming behavior correctly. * refactor: move inline YAML/JSON to fixtures for better test maintainability - Created 9 new fixture files in testdata/yaml-fixtures/: - 4 config fixtures (configs/) - 3 error scenario fixtures (error-scenarios/) - 2 JSON fixtures (json-fixtures/) - Replaced 10 inline YAML/JSON instances across 3 test files - Added 9 new fixture path constants to testutil/test_constants.go - Consolidated duplicate YAML (2 identical instances → 1 fixture) Documentation fixes: - Corrected CLAUDE.md coverage threshold from 80% to 72% to match Makefile - Updated mutation test docs to specify Go 1.22/1.23 compatibility - Enhanced Makefile help text for mutation tests Benefits: - Eliminates code duplication and improves test readability - Centralizes test data for easier maintenance and reuse - Follows CLAUDE.md anti-pattern guidance for inline test data - All tests passing with no regressions * refactor: reduce test code duplication with reusable helper functions Created targeted helper functions to consolidate repeated test patterns: - SetupTestEnvironment for temp dir + env var setup (3 uses) - NewTestDetector for wizard detector initialization (4 uses) - WriteConfigFixture for config fixture writes (4 uses) - AssertSourceEnabled/Disabled for source validation (future use) - AssertConfigFields for field assertions (future use) Changes reduce duplication by ~40-50 lines while improving test readability. All 510+ tests passing with no behavioral changes. * fix(scripts): shell script linting issues - Add parameter assignments to logging functions (S7679) - Add explicit return statements to logging functions (S7682) - Redirect error output to stderr in log_error function (S7677) Resolves SonarQube issues S7679, S7682, S7677 * refactor(functions): improve parameter grouping - Group identical parameter types in function signatures - Update call sites to match new parameter order - Enhances code readability and follows Go style conventions Resolves SonarQube issue godre:S8209 * refactor(interfaces): rename OutputConfig to QuietChecker - Follow Go naming convention for single-method interfaces - Rename interface from OutputConfig to QuietChecker - Update all 20+ references across 8 files - Improves code clarity and follows Go best practices * test(config): activate assertGitHubClient test helper - Create TestValidateGitHubClientCreation with concrete usage scenarios - Validate github.Client creation with nil and custom transports - Remove unused directive now that helper is actively used - Reduces test code duplication * test(constants): extract duplicated string literals to constants - Create TestOperationName constant in testutil/test_constants.go - Replace 3 occurrences of duplicate 'test-operation' literal - Centralize test constants for better maintainability - Follows Go best practices for reducing code duplication Resolves SonarQube issue S1192 * refactor(imports): update test references for interface naming - Import QuietChecker interface where needed - Update mock implementations to use new interface name - Ensure consistency across all test packages - Part of OutputConfig to QuietChecker refactoring * test(validation): reduce mutation test duplication with helper functions - Extract repetitive test case struct definitions into helper functions - Create helper structs: urlTestCase, sanitizeTestCase, formatTestCase, shaTestCase, semverTestCase, pinnedTestCase - Consolidate test case creation via helper functions (e.g., makeURLTestCase) - Reduces test file sizes significantly: * strings_mutation_test.go: 886 -> 341 lines (61% reduction) * validation_mutation_test.go: 585 -> 299 lines (49% reduction) - Expected SonarCloud impact: Reduces 30.3% duplication in new code by consolidating repetitive table-driven test definitions * refactor(test): reduce cognitive complexity and improve test maintainability -

Reduces string duplication in new code - All tests passing, 0 linting issues * refactor(test): consolidate more duplicated test case names to constants - Add 26 more test case name constants to testutil/test_constants.go - Replace hardcoded test case names across 13 test files - Consolidate: 'commit SHA', 'branch name', 'all valid files', 'zero files', 'with path traversal attempt', 'verbose flag', 'valid action', 'user provides value with whitespace', 'user accepts default (yes)', 'unknown theme', 'unknown output format', 'unknown error', 'subdirectory action', 'SSH GitHub URL', 'short commit SHA', 'semantic version', 'root action', 'relative path', 'quiet flag', 'permission denied on output directory', 'path traversal attempt', 'non-existent template', 'nonexistent files', 'no match', 'missing runs', 'missing name', 'missing description', 'major version only', 'javascript action' - Further reduces string duplication in new code - All tests passing, 0 linting issues * fix: improve code quality and docstring coverage to 100% - Fix config_test_helper.go: ensure repoRoot directory is created unconditionally before use by adding os.MkdirAll call with appropriate error handling -
