# Release v0.1.24 - Automated Testing & CI/CD

**Release Date:** December 16, 2025

## 🧪 What's New

### Automated Testing Pipeline

Added comprehensive unit tests and CI/CD integration to ensure quality before every PyPI release:

```bash
# Run tests locally
pytest tests/ -v --cov=vogel_model_trainer

# Tests cover:
# - Module imports (core, CLI, utils)
# - CLI command availability
# - Help pages for all commands
```

## ✅ Features

### Multi-Version Python Testing
- Automated testing on Python 3.9, 3.11, and 3.12
- Tests run before every PyPI publication
- Prevents broken releases from reaching users

### Test Coverage
- **Import Tests**: Verify all modules load correctly
  - Core modules: trainer, extractor, organizer, deduplicator, tester, evaluator
  - CLI components: main entry point and argument parsing
  - Internationalization: translation system

- **CLI Tests**: Validate command-line interface
  - `vogel-trainer --version` works
  - All commands have functional help pages

- **Pre-Release Checks**: Block broken packages from publication

## 🛡️ Impact

This release improves reliability:
- ✅ No more releases with import errors
- ✅ CLI commands guaranteed to work
- ✅ Multi-Python version support verified
- ✅ Faster feedback on code quality
