Metadata

Branch: task/ci-matrix-python-versions
Commit Message: ci(pipeline): implement matrix strategy for multi-version Python testing
Milestone: Backlog
Parent Epic: #1678

Description

The current CI pipeline, as defined in ci.yml, only runs tests against a single Python version (3.13). This limits our ability to ensure that the codebase is compatible with other supported Python versions.

Proposed Solution

Implement a matrix strategy in the ci.yml workflow to define a list of Python versions and run the test suite against each of them in parallel.

Subtasks

Identify the range of Python versions that should be supported
Modify the ci.yml file to include a matrix strategy for the unit_tests, integration_tests, and e2e_tests jobs
Update the noxfile.py to correctly handle the different Python versions if necessary
Tests (Behave): Verify no unit test regressions across versions
Tests (Robot): Verify integration tests pass across all matrix versions
Verify that the CI pipeline successfully runs the tests against all specified Python versions
Verify coverage >= 97% via nox -s coverage_report
Run nox (all default sessions), fix any errors

Definition of Done

This issue is complete when:

All subtasks above are completed and checked off.
The ci.yml file is updated to use a matrix strategy for Python versions.
The test suite is successfully executed against all supported Python versions.
The CI pipeline provides clear feedback on the compatibility of the codebase with different Python versions.
A Git commit is created where the first line of the commit message matches the Commit Message in Metadata exactly, followed by a blank line, then additional lines providing relevant details about the implementation.
The commit is pushed to the remote on the branch matching the Branch in Metadata exactly.
The commit is submitted as a pull request to master, reviewed, and merged before this issue is marked done.
All nox stages pass.
Coverage >= 97%.

Duplicate Check

Search queries used: "matrix strategy", "python versions", "ci compatibility"
Number of results found for each query: 0
Why none of the existing issues cover this specific finding: No existing issues were found that address the need to test against multiple Python versions in the CI pipeline.

Backlog note: This issue was discovered during autonomous operation
on milestone v3.7.0. It does not block milestone completion and has been
placed in the backlog for human review and future milestone assignment.
