Month: 2025-03 – Inspec/inspec contributions focused on hardening waiver file handling and aligning exit semantics to improve automation and cross-platform reliability. Delivered robustness fixes for waiver file I/O, added explicit error logging for unreadable/invalid waiver files, and standardized exit status for unsupported file extensions to 1 across Windows, macOS, and Linux. These changes reduce user confusion, prevent silent failures in automation, and provide consistent scripting behavior across environments.
