April 2025 monthly summary for IgniteUI/igniteui-angular: Delivered two focused improvements: 1) Roadmap.md cleanup removing an extraneous blank line after the milestone title with no content changes, and 2) Test suite modernization that reduces test flakiness by removing configureTestSuite() and adopting per-component beforeEach(waitForAsync(() => { TestBed.configureTestingModule({...}).compileComponents(); })) to ensure proper setup and teardown. Also updated tests to toggle jasmine spies via jasmine.getEnv().allowRespy(true/false) for better isolation. No major bugs fixed this month; the focus was on reliability, maintainability, and documentation hygiene, contributing to faster release readiness and more stable CI. Commits included: Update ROADMAP.md (37dffd10cee9f2e9c88e02c1bd677efa1dd1b0f7) and refactor(tests): removing configureTestSuite() (#15616) (8374b56eb66d154bc4ecf7723b88f6df923c8a4c).
