 3.  **Modular Test Dispatcher**: The `src/tests/types/` module deserializes the abstract JSON test payloads into `Suite`, `Case`, and `Expect` data structures.
     *   The `compile` action natively asserts the exact output shape of `jspg_stems`, allowing structural and relationship mapping logic to be tested purely through JSON without writing brute-force manual tests in Rust.
 4.  **Unit Context Execution**: When `cargo test` executes, the runner iterates the JSON payloads. Because the tests run natively inside the module via `#cfg(test)`, the Rust compiler globally erases `pgrx` C-linkage, instantiates the `MockExecutor`, and allows for pure structural evaluation of complex database logic completely in memory in parallel.
+
+### SQL Expectation Formatting & Auto-Variablization
+
+Because JSPG SQL compilation generates large, complex relational statements (often featuring dynamically generated UUIDs or timestamps), manually updating expected SQL strings in the test fixtures is error-prone and tedious. To streamline this, JSPG includes a built-in intelligent test fixture formatter.
+
+**When to use it:**
+Whenever you modify the internal SQL generation logic (in the Queryer or Merger) and need to update the expected SQL outputs across the entire test suite.
+
+**How to run it:**
+Run the test suite sequentially while passing the `UPDATE_EXPECT=1` environment variable:
+```bash
+UPDATE_EXPECT=1 cargo test --test-threads=1
+```
+*Note: The `--test-threads=1` flag is strictly required to prevent parallel tests from concurrently overwriting the same JSON fixture files and corrupting them.*
+
+**How it works (Intelligent Variablization):**
+The JSPG engine natively generates actual, random UUIDs in memory for records inserted during `merger` tests. To assert relational integrity without hardcoding ephemeral random strings, the formatter utilizes an intelligent variable extraction map:
+1. **Payload Extraction**: Before evaluating the SQL output, the test runner recursively scans the JSON of the `data` and `mocks` blocks for that specific test case. It maps any physical UUID it finds to its exact JSON path (e.g., `3333...` -> `mocks.0.id`).
+2. **SQL Canonicalization**: The test runner utilizes `sqlparser` to format the raw engine SQL into pristine, multi-line readable structures.
+3. **Variable Mapping**: It scans the formatted SQL using regex for UUIDs. If it encounters a UUID matching the payload extraction map, it replaces it with a template tag like `{{uuid:mocks.0.id}}` or `{{uuid:data.customer_id}}`.
+4. **Generated Fallbacks**: If it encounters a brand-new random UUID that wasn't provided in the inputs (e.g., a newly generated ID for an `INSERT`), it assigns it a sequential tracking variable like `{{uuid:generated_0}}`. Every subsequent appearance of that *exact* same random UUID in the SQL transaction will reuse the `{{uuid:generated_0}}` tag. Timestamps are naturally replaced with `{{timestamp}}`.
+
+This guarantees the `assert_pattern` execution engine can strictly validate that the exact same ID generated for a parent entity is correctly passed as a foreign key to its children across complex database transactions.
