- Validation function testing with parameterized test cases using it.each

Ask your AI assistant:
- "Use the unit testing pattern from Bootspring"
- "Apply the Bootspring unit testing pattern to my project"
Key Considerations#
- Test one behavior per test case for clear failure diagnosis
- Use the Arrange-Act-Assert structure for consistent test organization
- Cover edge cases including empty arrays, null values, and boundary conditions
- Use
it.eachfor parameterized tests with multiple input/output combinations - Keep tests independent so they can run in any order without side effects
