Release type

Patch release

Summary

Crow Testing makes property-based test failures easier to replay while keeping
normal runs exploratory. It also clarifies how project-specific feature
scenarios and recurring manual checks are organized and reviewed.

Highlights

• CsCheck examples use a per-test ReplaySeed local to replay a reported
  failure in isolation; a trailing guard catches seeds accidentally left in
  normal tests.
• Scenario planning follows confirmed application and feature ownership.
  Manual QA guidance keeps a single browse/release index with linked,
  tester-facing checks and explicit review status.

Changes

• Documented how to reproduce a failed property test in Test Explorer or with
  a filtered CsCheck_Seed run, and how to retain the discovered case as a
  regression test without narrowing future exploratory runs.
• Clarified the nullable-reference prerequisite, the CsCheck_Time override,
  and the intentionally relative date generators in the .NET testing guidance.
• Aligned scenario-organization and manual-QA templates with stable check IDs,
  application/page-specific index links, and approval rules for existing
  manual details.

Validation

• Crow asset validation: Passed with 0 errors and 0 warnings.
• Package dry run: Passed; 222 files selected.
• Archive inspection: Not run; no release archive has been generated for this draft.
