open-legal-products makes the frontend test gate more useful

Mike is keeping its quality bar high while removing pressure to test every unlikely path for its own sake.

The maintainers have lowered the frontend library's branch-coverage floor from 96% to 80%, while leaving statement, function and line coverage requirements intact.

That is a measured change, not a retreat from testing. Branch coverage tracks whether different decision paths have been exercised, but defensive and endpoint-specific paths can make a near-perfect target costly to maintain. The team says the old threshold encouraged artificial tests or reactive rule changes for otherwise small updates. Its current suite still exceeds the former bar, reporting 96.08% branch coverage across 158 passing tests.

So what Legal teams and product buyers should care because this keeps Mike's release safeguards focused on meaningful regressions rather than test-suite theatre.
