Andreas Hilbig b84e4c0734 feat: implement comprehensive testing framework and regression suite
- Established a centralized test specification in docs/tests.md that defines test categories, cases, and a coverage checklist to ensure consistent quality and maintainability across the project.

- Implemented RegressionTestExecutor for managing automated regression tests on a live Zabbix system.

- Updated GraphQL schema and resolvers with a generic runAllRegressionTests mutation.

- Enhanced MCP integration with new operation files and detailed documentation for AI-driven automation.

- Updated README.md and How-To guides (Cookbook, Maintenance, MCP) to reflect the new testing framework and MCP capabilities.

- Verified all changes with a full Jest suite (74 tests) and live end-to-end smoketests.

How-To Guides

This directory contains detailed guides on how to use and extend the Zabbix GraphQL API.

Available Guides

🍳 Cookbook

Practical, step-by-step recipes for common tasks, designed for both humans and AI-based test generation.

📊 Schema and Schema Extension

Learn about the GraphQL schema structure, how Zabbix entities map to GraphQL types, and how to use the dynamic schema extension system.

🗂️ Hierarchical Data Mapping

Understand how the API automatically maps flat Zabbix item keys into nested GraphQL objects using hierarchical resolvers and type hinting.

🔐 Roles and Permissions Extension

Discover how the permission system works, how to define permission levels using Zabbix template groups, and how to query user permissions.

🛠️ Technical Maintenance

Guide on code generation (GraphQL Codegen), running Jest tests, and local Docker builds.

🧪 Test Specification

Detailed list of test cases, categories (Unit, Integration, E2E), and coverage checklist.

🤖 MCP & Agent Integration

Discover how to integrate with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable LLMs and autonomous agents to interact with Zabbix efficiently.
