 In tests, render with `renderWithProviders` from `tests/test-utils.tsx`, passing `searchParams` for the initial URL and `onUrlUpdate` to assert writes. When a test asserts `window.location` directly, wrap the render in `NuqsAdapter` from `nuqs/adapters/react`; writes flush asynchronously, so assert them inside `waitFor`. For inputs bound to URL state, set values with one `fireEvent.change` rather than `user.type`, which flakes when a re-render between keystrokes moves focus
