Full details: Testing Instructions

Explanation

The PR description contains only “Fixes #8570” and provides no testing instructions. The changed component is specifyweb/backend/businessrules/tests/test_collectionobject.py, which adds test_add_existing_accession_to_collectionobject for the Collectionobject.accession relationship. The repository template requires a Testing instructions section, but the PR does not state how to run or verify this affected test.

Resolution

Add clear instructions to the PR description. For example: ./venv/bin/python -m pytest specifyweb/backend/businessrules/tests/test_collectionobject.py -v. State that the targeted CollectionObjectTests tests must pass, including test_add_existing_accession_to_collectionobject, and describe that the test verifies an existing Accession remains linked after creating and fetching a Collectionobject.
