bottelet CI Schema Gate
Purpose
Enforces correct execution order of database setup and test execution in CI.
1. Execution Order (Strict)
CI MUST run in this order:
php artisan migrate:fresh --seed
php artisan test
No deviations allowed.
2. Responsibility
This skill ONLY controls:
- execution sequencing
- CI pipeline ordering
- ensuring seed runs before tests
It does NOT validate:
- schema correctness
- factory correctness
- business logic correctness
These are handled by other skills.
3. Failure Behavior
If CI fails:
- migrations failing → schema issue (handled by data-layer-contracts)
- seed failing → factory/data issue (handled by data-layer-contracts)
- tests failing → behavior issue (handled by test layer)
CI does NOT interpret or classify failures.
4. Determinism Requirement
Test execution MUST always run on a fresh database state created by:
migrate:fresh --seed
No cached or partial state is allowed.
5. Core Principle
CI defines execution order only.
It does not define correctness of the system.
