Update Configuration Validator

Ensure the auto-update configuration for an Electron app is validated before any checks run, covering repository format, HTTPS endpoints, interval windows, and logger requirements.

Capabilities

Accepts valid configuration

• Providing a repo string in the form owner/repo, an HTTPS host, a 10 minutes interval, and a logger exposing log initializes without throwing. @test

Rejects malformed repository

• When the repo value is missing /, the setup throws a validation error before scheduling updates. @test

Rejects insecure endpoints

• Non-HTTPS host or baseUrl values cause immediate errors. @test

Rejects bad intervals or logger

• An update interval under 5 minutes or lacking a leading number triggers an error. @test
• Providing a logger object without a log function triggers an error. @test
