226-283: Snapshot creation will fail without snapshot files
Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Database.Create()demands at least oneDatabaseSnapshotFilebe defined for every data file in the source database. The new Snapshot branch only setsDatabaseSnapshotBaseNameand then callsCreate(), so at runtime this will throw (e.g. ”Create failed for Database … Must specify files for database snapshot.”) and the new parameter set can never succeed. Please populate$sqlDatabaseObjectToCreate.DatabaseSnapshotFiles(typically by cloning the source database’s data files and choosing snapshot file paths, or by exposing parameters so callers can provide those paths) before invokingCreate(). Without that fix the snapshot feature is functionally broken.

Learning: In UpdateServicesDsc (and similar DSC modules), the module-level localization file (source/en-US/<ModuleName>.strings.psd1) can be empty when DSC resources have their own localization files in source/DSCResources/<ResourceName>/en-US/DSC_<ResourceName>.strings.psd1. Automated tests verify localization completeness for resources. Don't flag empty module-level localization files as issues when resources have separate localization.

Learning: In PowerShell unit tests for parameter validation in SqlServerDsc, accessing parameter attributes directly like `$cmd.Parameters['ParameterName'].Attributes.Mandatory` works correctly because PowerShell automatically iterates through the array and returns the property values. Additional filtering to ParameterAttribute is not necessary when the parameter structure is known and controlled.
