// By default, uses "file::memory:?mode=memory&cache=private" for proper test isolation.
// The standard ":memory:" creates a SHARED database across all tests in the same process,
// which can cause test interference and flaky behavior. The private mode ensures each
// test gets its own isolated in-memory database.

// To override (e.g., for file-based tests), pass a custom dbPath:
// - For temp files: t.TempDir()+"/test.db"
// - For shared memory (not recommended): ":memory:"
