npm test no longer counts a skipped test as passed (roadmap WS-Q task 7; openvibe-shared/test-runner, Shared v1.25.0). test/run.js counted every file that exited 0 as passed, so message-deleted without an OpenVibe.Events checkout next to it, which then skips its end-to-end tests, read as green. It is now the shared runner (same files, one at a time as before, 60 s timeout per file): a test prints "<label>: skipped (<why>)" for what it could not run, and that file is listed with ○ and its reasons and not counted as passed; --strict makes a skip fail the run. message-deleted printed "(no OpenVibe.Events with redaction at …: the end-to-end tests are skipped)" and now prints "message-deleted end-to-end: skipped (no OpenVibe.Events with redaction at …)", so a run without the Events checkout (CI) reads 39/40 test files passed, 1 skipped. openvibe-shared is pinned at v1.25.0 (from v1.22.0; 1.23 and 1.24 add the web runtime, release-watch fixes and the readiness skip, and /api/ready answers as before because its db check really runs). npm test (Node 22, Events checkout present) 40/40; audio-queue's restart case failed once in five runs under load (it expects three !long rows while the first 2 s clip plays), a timing race in that test that nothing here touches.
