Description

Hello,

We noticed the presence of a test directory at the root of the package.
This directory contains an older version of jquery, leading to warnings in various security scanners.
In addition, those test data are making the package larger than it can be.

In summary: Is the content of the test directory expected in the package? And if not, would it be ok to stop packaging it?

Sincerely,
Manuel Leduc

Research direction

Start by inspecting the root test directory and the repository's packaging configuration to see why it is included in the published package. Compare the package contents with the project's test requirements and verify that the directory can be excluded without breaking tests. Done means test data is no longer packaged and the resulting package remains usable.
