Release Notes

## [0.5.0-preview0001] - 2025-09-14

### Added

- `Invoke-PesterJob`
 - Added new switch parameter `EnableSourceLineMapping` to map code coverage
   lines from built module files back to their corresponding source files
   using ModuleBuilder's Convert-LineNumber command. When enabled, this
   parameter automatically enables PassThru and requires ModuleBuilder
   module unless running in a Sampler project environment.
 - Added new parameter `FilterCodeCoverageResult` to filter code coverage results
   by function or class name when using EnableSourceLineMapping. Supports
   wildcard patterns and accepts arrays of filter patterns for flexible
   filtering of missed coverage lines.

### Fixed

- Improved handling escape character in tests.
- Fix build configuration due to changes in DscResource.DocGenerator.
- Fix error stream redirection in all test files to preserve error stream
 visibility ([issue #32](https://github.com/viscalyx/Viscalyx.Common/issues/32)).
- Fixed stream redirection in integration tests.
- Improved test code quality and accuracy.

### Changed

- Editor: Update VS Code settings to set default terminal
 profiles and enable Copilot instruction files.
- Tooling: Add task arguments and improve `test` and `build`
 task configuration for reproducible runs.
