Jun 1, 2025June 2025 highlights for hiero-ledger/hiero-consensus-node: No new customer-facing features this month; emphasis on reliability and test hygiene. Primary work targeted test stabilization and resource management within the StateFileManager, improving CI reliability and long-term maintainability. Specifically, fixed the StateFileManagerTests.sequenceOfStatesTest failure by ensuring proper cleanup and state release, and added test isolation utilities to prevent cross-test contamination. Impact: more stable CI, clearer test results, and a foundation for future feature work without test-driven blockers. Technologies and skills demonstrated include test lifecycle management, resource release patterns, and test isolation using MerkleDb utilities.
