+/**
+ * Parity test for the two Spring route extractors (#2078 maintainer request,

+ *
+ * GitNexus parses Spring `@(Get|Post|...)Mapping` annotations in TWO places:
+ *   - ingestion `route-extractors/spring.ts` → `extractSpringRoutes` (produces
+ *     graph `Route` nodes)
+ *   - group `http-patterns/java.ts` → `JAVA_HTTP_PLUGIN.scan` (produces

+ *
+ * They serve different layers and stay separate, but they MUST agree on the

+ * otherwise the graph under-covers what the group scan sees, which is exactly
+ * the divergence behind the #2265 array-form gap (the group query matched
+ * `@GetMapping({"/a","/b"})`, ingestion's didn't). This test runs one shared
+ * fixture through both and asserts the provider sets are identical for the
+ * shapes ingestion claims to cover: bare, named-arg, and array-form method
+ * routes under a *scalar* (or absent) class prefix.
+ *
+ * Known, deliberate divergence (NOT covered by the equality assertions): a
+ * method-level array route nested under a class-level *array-form*
+ * @RequestMapping. Ingestion suppresses it (it can't resolve which of several
+ * class prefixes to apply, and a dropped-prefix route is a wrong signal), while
+ * the group layer emits the full cross-product. The last test pins this so the
+ * suppression can't silently regress into emitting wrong routes; full
