Research direction

Start by reading the existing Ubuntu Docker CI setup and the WP_SQLite_Storage_Test tests to identify how the WordPress test bootstrap and storage tests are invoked. Add a windows-latest job using native Windows PHP, then adapt the Linux-specific setup and filesystem-permission assumptions. Done means the storage tests run successfully in CI on Windows and exercise the Windows-only paths.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The plugin tests currently run in Linux Docker containers on Ubuntu, so the Windows-only path checks in WP_SQLite_Storage_Test are not exercised in CI.

  • Add a windows-latest job that runs the storage tests under native Windows PHP.
  • Set up the WordPress test bootstrap and adapt Linux-specific setup and filesystem-permission assumptions as needed.
