 ### Unreleased
 
+* Test coverage: Added tests for previously-untested public API functions `AsyncSeq.tryFirst`, `AsyncSeq.firstOrDefault`, `AsyncSeq.zipWithParallel`, `AsyncSeq.combineLatestWithAsync`, and `AsyncSeq.toObservable`. No functional changes.
 * Fixed Fable CI build: `Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces` was pinned to a specific version (`10.0.7`) that was older than the version resolved transitively via `System.Threading.Channels`, causing a `NU1605` package downgrade error that made Fable's project cracker fail during `dotnet fable`. The reference now uses `Version="*"` (matching `System.Threading.Channels`) so both resolve consistently. (#334)
 
 ### 4.17.0
