+/**
+ * ZOOM UI EXCLUSION TEST
+ * =======================
+ * Verifies that UI elements (footer, menu, buttons) are NOT affected by zoom
+ *
+ * Test Requirements:
+ * - Footer should NOT be inside #zoom-wrapper
+ * - Action bar should NOT be inside #zoom-wrapper
+ * - Hamburger menu should NOT be inside #zoom-wrapper
+ * - Fixed buttons should NOT be inside #zoom-wrapper
+ * - Only .cv-container content should be affected by zoom
+ *
+ * Test Flow:
+ * 1. Load page and show zoom control
+ * 2. Measure initial sizes of UI elements
+ * 3. Set zoom to 200%
+ * 4. Verify UI elements remain same size
+ * 5. Verify CV content has doubled in size
