Testing and CI

Local Gates

install
verify

install is frozen and verify runs formatting, typecheck, lint, tests, and documentation checks/build. It excludes all native builds. Ark deliberately installs no commit hook, so commits do not reinstall dependencies or run the full suite.

GitHub Actions

• CI: path-filtered checks plus iOS simulator build when app or workflow files change.
• React Doctor: advisory React scan on PRs and main.
• Routing Packs: manual/tagged Valhalla routing pack generation.
• Docs: VitePress build on PRs and Cloudflare Pages deploy on main when secrets exist.

Current CI Fix Notes

The iOS simulator script must run CocoaPods before checking for ios/Ark.xcworkspace. expo prebuild --no-install creates the native directory and Podfile, but the workspace appears after pod install.

Device Test Handoff

Automated checks do not replace the Android and iOS native checklist. Use Android device smoke and release checklist before cutting a release candidate.
