March 2026: Focused on improving reliability of CTE tests in spiceai/datafusion by ensuring strict SchemaProvider registration to prevent unexpected catalog lookups during CTE reference resolution. Implemented re-registration of the strict SchemaProvider within the CTE test context and validated the change with targeted test runs, including backported coverage on tag 52.0.0 to demonstrate the prior failure and the fix. The work enhances test determinism and guards against regressions in CTE handling.
