Better playwright tests #8249
Description
Activity
FWIW E2E currently covers:
- That translations are working
- That the theme is interchangeable
- That search functionality works
Even so, I don't think E2E would have caught this, since a PR didn't introduce a regression, rather, data we didn't expect did. Tests will all sorts of malformed and unexpected data may help, though.
Yeah the only way to detect would have been timed testing of the site on some cron, like every couple minutes. Not impossible, but a lot of work. I suspect there are tools and services that could do this.
At the time this issue was suggested, we didn't yet know the root cause (data and timing)
