EnvModel: Returns error if environment not set (translated errors)

Overview

These tests validate nestjs-mod EnvModel: environment variable reading, required field validation, and DI value propagation into services.

What We Do And Verify

• We verify how envTransform and EnvModel/EnvModelProperty decorators extract and validate env values.

• We confirm expected behavior for missing or invalid required env fields.

• We lock the DI access contract for env values in services.

• We lock the API boundary contract (status, payload, and response shape) to protect externally observable behavior.

• We explicitly validate the error contract: not only failure itself, but also error shape/content expected by module consumers.

• We confirm correct lifecycle behavior in test environment: initialization, dependency readiness, and graceful shutdown of app/modules.
