 - **ContractTestSuite** - Main test suite that POSTs to each `/api/chat/mcp/<tool>` endpoint
 - Each test method validates a specific MCP tool endpoint using the constants from `pkg/toolsets/kiali/tools/endpoints.go`
+- Resource-specific tests are driven by `TEST_NAMESPACE`, `TEST_SERVICE`, `TEST_WORKLOAD`, and optionally `TEST_TRACE_ID` so CI can target its own fixture data
