+/**
+ * Default TestBed environment for the Angular Jest projects — a `setupFilesAfterEnv` entry listed
+ * AFTER each project's own `src/test-setup.ts` (which starts the zone test environment).
+ *
+ * Why: most component specs in the Angular projects are the `should create` stubs the Angular CLI
+ * generated, and none of them had ever run (the Unit Tests workflow is new, and until the harness
+ * fixes that come with this file every Angular suite failed to load). Written against an empty
+ * testing module, they fail on the first injection the component makes — `TranslateService`,
+ * `NbToastrService`, `NbDialogRef`, `ActivatedRoute`, the `translate` pipe — which is app-wide
+ * infrastructure, not what those specs are about. This file provides that infrastructure the way
+ * the app's root module does, once, instead of pasting the same provider list into ~100 specs.
+ *
+ * How: a top-level `beforeEach` adds these imports/providers to the testing module before any spec's
+ * own `beforeEach`. `TestBed.configureTestingModule` MERGES successive calls, and a later provider
+ * wins, so a spec that provides its own `TranslateService`, `NbDialogRef` or route stub still gets
+ * its own. Nothing is compiled until a spec asks TestBed for something, so specs that never touch
+ * TestBed pay only the import cost.
+ *
+ * Deliberately NOT here: feature services and stores (a spec that needs one should say so), and
+ * `NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA` (the zone test env errors on unknown elements, and that stays on). Keep the
+ * imports to third-party modules and leaf workspace modules: this file loads BEFORE each spec, so
+ * importing e.g. `@gauzy/ui-core/core` here would cache the real modules that a spec later replaces
+ * with `jest.mock(...)` (chat-sidebar.service.spec does), and the mock would silently not apply.
