In Qiskit/qiskit-neko#41 we're updating the default simulator backend plugin used by qiskit-neko to rely on the fake backends provider in the qiskit-ibm-runtime project. A key aspect of qiskit-neko is the reciprocity of testing to maintain compatibility in the qiskit ecosystem (see: https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-neko?tab=readme-ov-file#downstream-usage-in-testing) so to ensure this is maintainable and the interface remains compatible for every project using neko this commit adds a corresponding job to exercise the qiskit-ibm-runtime usage in the tests. However, this is blocked until after Qiskit/qiskit-neko#41 merges as that is needed to fix the test suite. A followup will be needed to add a backend selection to the action configuration so that we can actually use a fake backend. A longer term step we should investigate is adding a qiskit-neko plugin to the repo which would enable using qiskit-ibm-runtime's backends and primitives directly for integration testing with real backends. But that is much longer term and isn't part of this
