- Updated opc-communication.md to clarify E2E test scenarios involving the real OPC server and mock server.
- Introduced an in-process asyncua OPC UA server fixture in conftest.py for E2E tests.
- Created a new fixture for activities using the real OpcRepository connected to the in-process server.
- Updated scenarios.md to include instructions for running OPC real-server tests.
Update pyproject.toml to remove specific test file from exclusion list and bump sientia-dataops-library dependency version to 1.10.4 in requirements-light.txt
Update coverage source in pyproject.toml, add testcontainers for PostgreSQL in requirements-dev.txt, increment image tag and adjust probe delays in values.yaml, and refine condition checks in format_and_export_prediction.py and mlflow.py. Additionally, enhance test coverage in test_gates.py.
