Add end-to-end tests that build and run the sqlcmd binary #641

@dlevy-msft-sql

Description

@dlevy-msft-sql

Background

As noted by @shueybubbles in PR #640:

feels like we need some tests that build the app in /cmd/modern and run it. This case is a good one to start with.

Proposal

Add e2e tests that actually build the sqlcmd binary and exercise real-world scenarios. The piped input fix from #640 would be a good first test case.

Suggested test cases

  1. Piped input - Verify that piping SQL to sqlcmd works without panicking (regression test for sqlcmd panic when run inside emacs #607)
  2. Basic query execution - Verify -Q\ flag works correctly
  3. Input file execution - Verify -i\ flag works correctly
  4. Help output - Verify --help\ returns expected output

Implementation notes

  • Tests would live in \cmd/modern/e2e_test.go\ or similar
  • Use \go build\ to compile the binary, then \�xec.Command\ to run it
  • May need build tags to skip in CI if no SQL Server is available for connection tests
  • Non-connection tests (like help, version, piped input that fails gracefully) can run anywhere
