## Development

### Testing and CI

The project includes automated testing and continuous integration workflows:

#### Helm Chart Testing

Tests run automatically on:

- All pull requests (validates changes before merge)
- Manual trigger via GitHub Actions UI

The tests perform:

- Chart linting for syntax and best practices
- Template rendering validation
- Kubernetes manifest validation
- Custom Resource Definition (CRD) verification

#### Chart Publishing

After changes pass tests and are merged to main:

- The chart is automatically packaged
- The Helm repository index is updated
- Changes are published to GitHub Pages

These CI workflows ensure chart quality through pre-merge validation and maintain the Helm repository for easy installation.
