Automated end-to-end test rig for the watch
A two-layer test harness now guards the watch experience: a fast deterministic suite for the watch UI, plus a full round-trip check that drives the real watch-to-phone sync on paired simulators and verifies the result in the phone's actual data store. Building it caught two real bugs before any user could hit them — a race that could silently drop a dictated task on a cold launch, and a test-harness flaw that had been reporting green without running anything.
