// Regression check for the `pnpm test` glob. The previous spec script
// `tests/backend/specs/**.ts` only matched files at depth 1 under
// tests/backend/specs/, silently skipping every spec under api/ and
// admin/ — including the failures filed in #7785–#7788, #7790. This
// test asserts that mocha (running the exact arguments from
// src/package.json's "test" script) still discovers a representative
// file in each of those subdirectories.
//
// If the glob is ever narrowed again, this test fails loudly instead
// of letting the affected specs slip out of CI.
