MR !2 merged into 9.2.x. Supports Drupal ~11.3, drops Drupal 10. The varbase_search_test recipe provisions a Search API content index, a /search results page and a front-end search box block; the webship tests search from the front-end box as an anonymous visitor and assert the matching article, plus verify the provided Database server is enabled and uses the Database backend. Needs review.

AI-Generated: Yes (Used Claude Code).
