#87 - testing-fab

[mumenthalers]

Implements a configurable Testing FAB in @shiftcode/ngx-components instead of only documenting terminology.

Changes Made

• Added TestingFabComponent as a floating, always-on-top FAB with an expandable control panel.
• Added provideTestingFab(...) for opt-in provisioning.
• Added typed widget contracts for:
  • Action widgets
  • Select query param widgets
  • Custom component widgets
• Implemented URL-authoritative behavior for select-query-param widgets (read/update query params).
• Exported the new Testing FAB APIs via libs/components/src/public-api.ts.
• Added focused unit tests for rendering and behavior.
• Updated component docs and corrected glossary acronym capitalization (URL, HTML) in CONTEXT.md.
• Updated provideTestingFab(...) to accept either a static widget config or a factory (ValueOrFactory pattern).
• Added environment initialization to mount sc-testing-fab automatically via createComponent(...) and provideEnvironmentInitializer(...).
• Simplified custom-component widgets to render only the component type (removed custom inputs support).
• Added hardReload support for select-query-param widgets to optionally update the URL and reload directly.
• Migrated template control flow to modern Angular syntax (@for, @switch, @let) and switched toggle behavior to native popover.
• Added CSS custom properties for FAB positioning and theming (inset, margin, size, border-radius, background/foreground colors, and icon URL with default Shiftcode logo).
• Added/updated unit tests to cover provider config modes and hard-reload behavior.

Pull request overview

Adds project terminology definitions for the planned “Testing FAB” feature so Consumer applications and the Library share consistent language when documenting/implementing the FAB and its widgets.

Changes:

• Introduces standardized terms: Testing FAB, Action Widget, Select Query Param Widget, Custom Component Widget.
• Documents behavioral concepts (URL-authoritative selection, opt-in provisioning, Consumer-owned activation safety).

@copilot implement issue #87

Implemented issue #87 in commit b9b7512: added a configurable Testing FAB with provider API (provideTestingFab), action/select-query-param/custom-component widgets, component rendering/URL query-param behavior, tests, and public/docs exports.

Addressed in commit 51137d0.

I updated the Testing FAB provider API and rendering initializer, migrated the component to modern Angular control flow + native popover, added hard-reload support for select query-param widgets, removed custom-component inputs, and updated tests accordingly. I also attempted to fetch PR metadata via GitHub MCP, but this environment returned 404 for shiftcode/sc-ng-commons-public PR #87.

Addressed in commit d9d98ac.

I applied Prettier formatting fixes to the 4 failing Testing FAB files. I also checked Actions via MCP: the new workflow run for this commit is #515 and is currently action_required, so lint/test/build have not executed yet until that run is approved/released.

@copilot now linting failed. you know that you can execute those commands yourself?

and when commitin it should actually be run by husky, right?

Fixed in commit d243942.

I checked the failing CI lint job via MCP logs, reproduced the issue context locally as far as this sandbox allows, and fixed the reported lint violations in the Testing FAB files.

And yes: commits should run Husky pre-commit here (.husky/pre-commit runs npx lint-staged), so staged files in libs/components go through eslint/prettier before commit.

Addressed in commit d5f8e57.

I fixed the remaining active review comments by naming the testing-fab injection token, updating the provideTestingFab(...) docs/async initializer path, and strengthening the initializer spec to assert rendered inner content. I also rechecked the changed files with Prettier and ran final PR validation (code review + CodeQL: no findings).
