Tobias Pfeiffer 0c2b8d77b2 fix: Update supabase test docs to use _test.sql (#48993)
## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.

YES

## What kind of change does this PR introduce?

The database testing docs currently show test files using the
`.test.sql` suffix, but `supabase test new` generates `_test.sql` files.

Both formats work, but the generator behavior matches the previous Go
CLI implementation and existing test fixtures. Update the docs for
consistency with the actual generated file naming.

Relevant context: [database testing
docs](<https://supabase.com/docs/guides/database/testing>) and
[CLI-1318](<https://linear.app/supabase/issue/CLI-1318/port-supabase-test-db-supabase-test-new>).

We might want to add `supabase test new` to the docs, but that's a
separate change.

## What is the current behavior?

It reports `.test.sql`

## What is the new behavior?

it reports `_test.sql` inline with the generator

## Additional context

[slack

- we can also add the test generator to the docs but I think that's a
separate issue.

Maintainers

If you are a maintainer of any tools in the Supabase ecosystem, you can use this site to provide documentation for the tools & libraries that you maintain.

DocSpec

We use documentation specifications which can be used to generate human-readable docs.

  • OpenAPI: for documenting API endpoints.
  • SDKSpec (custom to Supabase): for SDKs and client libraries.
  • ConfigSpec (custom to Supabase): for configuration options.
  • CLISpec (custom to Supabase): for CLI commands and usage.

The benefit of using custom specifications is that we can generate many other types from a strict schema (eg, HTML and manpages). It also means that we can switch to any documentation system we want. On this site we use Next.js, but on Supabase's official website, we use a custom React site and expose only a subset of the available API for each tool.
