# Run all tests headless
npm run test:e2e

CI/CD Pipeline

Tests automatically run on:

  • Every push to main/develop
  • Pull requests
  • Manual workflow trigger

Next Steps

Immediate Actions

  1. Run smoke tests locally: npm run test:e2e:smoke
  2. Review test output
  3. Fix any failing tests
  4. Commit and push to trigger CI

Future Enhancements

  • Add tests for AI generation feature
  • Test drag-and-drop in component tree
  • Test Lambda editor interactions
  • Add visual regression testing
  • Test Sass styles showcase
  • Test CI/CD config generation
  • Add performance benchmarks
  • Test offline PWA functionality

Troubleshooting

If tests fail:

  1. Check if dev server is running
  2. Clear browser cache: npx playwright cache clean
  3. Reinstall browsers: npx playwright install --force
  4. Run in UI mode to debug: npm run test:e2e:ui
  5. Check screenshots in test-results/

Common Issues:

  • Monaco not loading: Increase timeout to 15000ms
  • Selectors not found: Check if feature toggle is enabled
  • Timing issues: Add waitForTimeout() after navigation

Success Criteria

Tests are passing when:

  • All smoke tests pass (required for every commit)
  • Full test suite passes on main/develop
  • No critical console errors
  • Code generation produces valid files
  • All major features accessible
  • Cross-browser compatibility confirmed

Maintenance

Update tests when:

  • Adding new features
  • Modifying UI structure
  • Changing navigation
  • Adding new designers
  • Updating dependencies

Keep test coverage above 85% for all new features.
