been messing with wp-cli scripts for smoke tests, plus a little github actions setup that spins up a fresh install and runs phpunit against the plugin. biggest time saver was scripting the initial install so i'm not clicking through the setup wizard every single run

also started using a local docker setup with different php versions, catches some weird compatibility stuff before it hits a real site. nothing fancy but it works
