Fernando Lins c1b824258e feat: add test coverage docs (#4844)
## Linked issue

Refs #4838 #4839 #4840

## Summary / motivation

Adds a contributor-facing guide for the test coverage setup introduced
across the three coverage PRs, and updates CLAUDE.md to reflect that
`just` is now the single entry point for all build, test, lint, and
format commands.

## How to test

- Read `docs/testing-coverage.md` — verify it covers all three stacks,
  thresholds, and the known gaps section.
- Run `just docs` and open `out/docs/html/index.html` to confirm
  `testing-coverage` appears in the sidebar under Contributing.
- Read `CLAUDE.md` — verify `./ninja` / `./tools` references are gone
  and `just test-rust`, `just test-py`, `just test-ts` are mentioned.

### Details

- `docs/testing-coverage.md`: documents tools, thresholds, per-stack
  entry points, and known gaps for all three coverage stacks.
- `docs/index.md`: wired `testing-coverage` into the Sphinx toctree
  after `contributing`.
- `CLAUDE.md`: replaced raw `./ninja` / `./tools` invocations with
  `just` equivalents; added top-level note directing contributors to
  `just --list`; added `just test-rust`, `just test-py`, `just test-ts`
  to the Quick iteration section.

# Testing and Coverage
CI runs Rust, Python, and TypeScript tests plus lint/type checks. Coverage is
orchestrated in `justfile` with direct CLI calls, using ninja only to prepare
generated build artifacts that the test commands need.
## Quick reference
```sh
just test # run all tests (no coverage)
just test --coverage # run all tests + enforce coverage thresholds
just test --coverage --html # same + generate HTML reports under out/coverage/
just test-rust # Rust only
just test-rust --coverage
just test-rust --coverage --html
just test-py # Python (pylib + qt) only
just test-py --coverage
just test-py --coverage --html
just test-ts # TypeScript/Svelte Vitest only
just test-ts --coverage
just test-ts --coverage --html
```
HTML reports are written under `out/coverage/` (gitignored).
## Coverage tools and thresholds
| Stack | Test runner | Coverage tool | Minimum |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------ | ---------------- | ------: |
| Rust workspace | `cargo nextest` via `cargo-llvm-cov` | `cargo-llvm-cov` | 60% |
| Python `pylib/anki` | `pytest pylib/tests` | `coverage.py` | 65% |
| Python `qt/aqt` | `pytest qt/tests` | `coverage.py` | 20% |
| TypeScript/Svelte | `vitest run` | Vitest V8 | 5% |
Linux pull requests run `just test --coverage` in CI. macOS and Windows
jobs run `just test` (no coverage enforcement) for now.
## Notes
- **Rust** — `cargo-llvm-cov` is installed on demand into `out/bin/` to avoid
polluting the global cargo install. Coverage runs rebuild the workspace with
instrumentation, so they are slower than plain `just test-rust`.
**Windows ARM64 (`aarch64-pc-windows-msvc`) is not supported**: the Rust
compiler produces malformed `.profraw` files on that target
([rust-lang/rust#150123](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/150123),
[cargo-llvm-cov#436](https://github.com/taiki-e/cargo-llvm-cov/issues/436)).
`just test-rust --coverage` exits with a clear message on ARM64 Windows;
use `just test-rust` (no coverage) or rely on CI (Linux) for enforcement.
- **Python** — coverage is split across two suites (`pylib` and `qt`) because
they have different `PYTHONPATH` setups and test folders.
- **TypeScript** — coverage is measured only over code reachable through
Vitest's module graph. Svelte component rendering behavior is not covered.
## Gaps and future improvements
- Raise thresholds gradually as the test suite grows and CI timings stabilise.
- Exclude generated files from coverage denominators where appropriate.
- Publish `out/coverage/` as a CI artifact so reviewers can browse HTML
reports directly from a PR.
- Consider diff/changed-file coverage once baselines are stable — it is a
better enforcement mechanism for incremental improvement than whole-repo
thresholds.
- Add component or browser tests for Svelte UI surfaces if Svelte coverage
is intended to cover rendered component behaviour.
