Pull request overview
This PR adds integration tests for core ObjectUI components following a spec-driven testing philosophy where components must render according to their JSON schemas with mocked network layers. The tests cover ObjectForm (plugin-form), ObjectGrid (plugin-grid), Fields (@object-ui/fields), and Dashboard (plugin-dashboard) components.
Changes:
- Added simplified Form integration tests (Scenario B only) verifying metadata-driven form generation
- Added simplified Grid integration tests (Scenarios A & B) verifying grid rendering and data loading
- Added Fields integration tests covering field type mapping and formatting utilities
- Added Dashboard integration tests for page rendering and component registry validation

The test names "Form Scenario B" and "Grid Scenario A/B" don't match the established naming convention from the Kanban Integration tests, which use the full descriptive format like "Scenario A: Protocol Compliance & Rendering (Static Test)" or "Scenario B: Metadata-Driven Hydration (Server Test)". The Form and Grid tests should follow the same pattern for consistency. For example, "Form Scenario B" should be "Scenario B: Metadata-Driven Form Generation" to match the pattern.

The Component Registry Check test uses dynamic imports but doesn't follow the established pattern for integration tests. According to the PR description's test philosophy, integration tests should verify "Black Box" behavior - how components render from JSON schemas and interact with data. Testing the ComponentRegistry directly is a unit test concern, not an integration test. This test belongs in a separate unit test file for the @object-ui/core package, not in the integration test suite.

The comment headers say "SIMPLIFIED FORM INTEGRATION TESTS" and "SIMPLIFIED GRID INTEGRATION TESTS", but the PR description doesn't mention these being "simplified" versions. The word "SIMPLIFIED" suggests these are placeholder or incomplete tests, which aligns with the observation that they don't follow the complete 4-scenario structure (A-D) described in the PR. Consider either removing "SIMPLIFIED" and implementing complete test coverage, or clarifying in the PR description why these tests are intentionally simplified.

The test description says "Grid Scenario A: Grid Rendering and Actions" but the test only verifies that a button exists. It doesn't actually test any actions (e.g., click handlers, button functionality). According to the PR's testing philosophy, "Event Binding: Verify that click handlers defined in events are attached (e.g., spy on the ActionRunner)." This test should either verify action handling or be renamed to just "Grid Rendering" without mentioning actions.

According to the PR description and test philosophy, integration tests should follow a "4-scenario structure" (A-D): Protocol Compliance, Metadata Hydration, Business Operations (CRUD), and Dynamic Behavior (Expression Test). The Form tests only include Scenario B, and the Grid tests only include Scenarios A and B. This is incomplete coverage compared to the established Kanban Integration tests which implement all four scenarios. Consider adding the missing scenarios or documenting why they're not applicable.

The Fields Integration tests use dynamic imports (await import) for testing pure utility functions like mapFieldTypeToFormType and formatCurrency. This is inconsistent with how these functions should be tested - they're pure functions with no side effects and should be imported statically at the top of the file like other test dependencies. The dynamic imports add unnecessary complexity and async overhead for synchronous functions. Reference: lines 2-5 show static imports for testing utilities.

The test verifies unknown field types fallback to 'field:text', but doesn't actually test the end-to-end rendering behavior as mentioned in the comment "The actual rendering is tested via the full form integration tests". However, there are no full form integration tests in this PR that verify unknown field types render correctly in forms. This creates a gap in test coverage - the mapping is tested but not the actual rendering behavior.

The PR description claims to test "Field type mapping (text → field:text, picklist → field:select)", but the Fields Integration tests (lines 746-754) don't include a test case for 'picklist' mapping to 'field:select'. The test only covers 'text', 'email', 'number', 'boolean', and 'select', but not 'picklist'. This is an important field type mentioned in the schema definitions throughout the codebase (see lines 407, 416, 547, 548, 698, 699). Add a test case for picklist mapping.

The Form Scenario B test mocks getObjectSchema with custom field definitions (Name Field, Amount Field) but then doesn't verify that these fields actually appear in the rendered form. The test only checks for the absence of error messages, which is a weak assertion. According to the test philosophy in the PR description, Scenario B should "Assert: Check that the UI (Columns/Cards) was generated purely from the Mocked Schema return value." The test should verify that fields with labels "Name Field" and "Amount Field" are actually rendered.

The Form and Grid integration test sections lack the header comment block that documents the test scenarios covered, unlike the Kanban Integration section (lines 295-303). For consistency with the established pattern, these sections should have similar header comments describing what scenarios they cover. This improves code documentation and makes the test structure clearer.
