Research direction

Start by locating existing cFE Functional test framework examples and the sample_lib API entry points; the issue does not name specific files or tests. Determine how a full-stack functional test is structured without stubs, then add an example that exercises the API in its operational context and can be run as part of the project’s test workflow.
