Pull request overview
Updates the Pester dependency declaration in the test suite to address discovery failures caused by a mismatched, hard-pinned Pester version when the CI runner pre-installs/imports a different version.

Hard-locks the Pester test dependency to an exact version pinned by module GUID, replacing the
RequiredVersion = '5.7.1'pin that broke test discovery when the runner installed Pester 5.8.0.#Requires -Modules @{ ModuleName = 'Pester'; RequiredVersion = '5.8.0'; GUID = 'a699dea5-2c73-4616-a270-1f7abb777e71' }Why 5.8.0 + GUID
@<sha>,RequiredVersionalready states the version in plain text, and#Requiresrejects a GUID without a version key.Files updated: 1 test file(s).
Fixes #41.
Note
This pin fully holds once
Invoke-Pesterinstalls the pinned version instead of the latest (today it installs newest, so a future Pester release would re-break exact pins). Tracked in PSModule/Invoke-Pester#68. Part of the dependency-management epic PSModule/Process-PSModule#356.
