Summary

This PR addresses issue #1163 (Unit tests need clean up) by removing the #ifdef _WINDOWS guard from the hashtable unit tests, enabling these tests to run on all platforms including Linux CI.

Problem

The hashtable tests in src/test/hashtable.cpp were wrapped in #ifdef _WINDOWS preprocessor guards, which meant they only ran on Windows builds. This limited CI coverage and prevented these important tests from running on Linux and other platforms.

Solution

  • Removed #ifdef _WINDOWS guard: Tests now run on all platforms
  • Cleaned up conditional compilation: Eliminated the empty #else branch for non-Windows platforms
  • Verified compilation: Confirmed the tests compile successfully on Linux

Testing

  • ✅ Verified src/test/hashtable.cpp compiles successfully without the Windows guard
  • ✅ Tests use proper VERIFY/ENSURE macros that correctly exit on failure
  • ✅ No functional changes to test logic, only removed platform restrictions

Impact

This change immediately improves CI test coverage by enabling hashtable tests to run on Linux builds. This addresses one of the key issues mentioned in #1163 where tests had unnecessary platform guards limiting coverage.

Next Steps

This is the first step in a broader unit test modernization effort. Future work could include:

  • Removing similar Windows-only guards from other test files
  • Evaluating the feasibility of migrating to a modern C++ testing framework
  • Addressing other test infrastructure improvements mentioned in Unit tests need clean up #1163
