+# Branch Protection Setup
+
+To ensure that all pull requests must pass tests before being merged into `main`, follow these steps:
+
+## Setting up Branch Protection Rules
+
+1. Go to your repository on GitHub
+2. Navigate to **Settings** > **Branches**
+3. Click **Add rule** or **Edit** if a rule already exists for `main`
+4. Configure the following settings:
+
+### Required Settings:
+- **Branch name pattern**: `main`
+- ✅ **Restrict pushes that create files larger than 100MB**
+- ✅ **Require a pull request before merging**
+ - ✅ **Require approvals**: 1 (or more as desired)
+ - ✅ **Dismiss stale PR approvals when new commits are pushed**
+- ✅ **Require status checks to pass before merging**
+ - ✅ **Require branches to be up to date before merging**
+ - **Status checks**: Select `test` (this is the job name from the CI workflow)
+
+### Optional but Recommended:
+- ✅ **Require conversation resolution before merging**
+- ✅ **Include administrators** (applies rules to repository admins too)
+
+## What This Achieves
+
+With these settings enabled:
+- No direct pushes to `main` are allowed
+- All changes must go through pull requests
+- The CI tests must pass before a PR can be merged
+- PRs must be up-to-date with the latest `main` branch
+- At least one approval is required for each PR
+
+## Testing the Setup
+
+1. Create a test branch
+2. Make a small change and create a PR
+3. Verify that the CI workflow runs automatically
+4. Confirm that the merge button is disabled until tests pass
+
+The CI workflow will run on every push to a PR targeting `main`, ensuring code quality is maintained.

# FluentBuilderPattern
+
+[](https://github.com/Sven-vh/fluent-builder-pattern/actions/workflows/ci.yml)
+
C++ Scope based fluent builders pattern
+
+## CI/CD
+
+This project includes automated testing via GitHub Actions. All pull requests to the `main` branch are automatically tested to ensure code quality and functionality.
+
+### Running Tests Locally
+
+The project uses Google Test for unit testing. To run tests locally:
+
+1. Open the solution in Visual Studio
+2. Restore NuGet packages
+3. Build the solution (Release/x64 recommended)
+4. Run the UnitTests project
+
+### GitHub Actions Workflow
+
+The CI workflow automatically:
+- Restores NuGet packages
+- Builds the entire solution
+- Runs all unit tests
+- Uploads test results as artifacts
+
+This ensures that all changes are properly tested before being merged into the main branch.

+# Local CI Test Script
+
+This PowerShell script simulates the GitHub Actions CI workflow for local testing.
+
+**Note**: This requires Windows with Visual Studio Build Tools or Visual Studio installed.
+
+```powershell
+# Test script to simulate CI workflow locally
+Write-Host "=== Local CI Test ==="
+
+# Check prerequisites
+$nuget = Get-Command nuget -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
+$msbuild = Get-Command msbuild -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
+
+if (-not $nuget) {
+ Write-Error "NuGet CLI not found. Please install NuGet CLI."
+ exit 1
+}
+
+if (-not $msbuild) {
+ Write-Error "MSBuild not found. Please install Visual Studio or Build Tools."
+ exit 1
+}
+
+try {
+ # Step 1: Restore packages
+ Write-Host "1. Restoring NuGet packages..."
+ nuget restore FluentBuilderPattern.sln
+ if ($LASTEXITCODE -ne 0) { throw "NuGet restore failed" }
+
+ # Step 2: Build solution
+ Write-Host "2. Building solution..."
+ msbuild FluentBuilderPattern.sln /p:Configuration=Release /p:Platform=x64 /p:WarningLevel=4 /verbosity:minimal
+ if ($LASTEXITCODE -ne 0) { throw "Build failed" }
+
+ # Step 3: Check if test executable exists
+ $testExe = ".\UnitTests\out\Release-x64\UnitTests.exe"
+ if (-not (Test-Path $testExe)) {
+ throw "Test executable not found at $testExe"
+ }
+ Write-Host "3. Test executable found: $testExe"
+
+ # Step 4: Run tests
+ Write-Host "4. Running tests..."
+ & $testExe --gtest_output=xml:test_results_local.xml
+ if ($LASTEXITCODE -ne 0) { throw "Tests failed" }
+
+ Write-Host "✅ All steps passed! Your changes should pass CI."
+}
+catch {
+ Write-Host "❌ Local CI test failed: $_"
+ exit 1
+}
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+1. Save this as `test-ci-locally.ps1`
+2. Run in PowerShell: `.\test-ci-locally.ps1`
+3. If successful, your changes should pass the GitHub Actions CI
+
+## Differences from GitHub Actions
+
+- Uses your local Visual Studio/Build Tools version instead of GitHub's
+- May have different dependency versions
+- Local environment variables and paths may differ
+
+For the most accurate test, push to a branch and create a PR to see the actual CI results.
