Pull request overview

Adds Playwright E2E coverage for core “video manager” user flows in video-manager-frontend, introducing new spec files plus Page Object Model abstractions and a helper to ensure items exist before running item-dependent tests.

Changes:

Added E2E specs for navigation, items browsing/filtering, tagging mode, tags management, and collections lifecycle.
Introduced new Page Object Model classes for the above areas to centralize locators and actions.
Added a sync helper to trigger provider sync when the items list is empty.

The edit/delete interactions rely on XPath with positional button indices (//button[1], //button[2]). This is brittle if the card header structure changes (or if additional buttons are added). Prefer locating the specific buttons via accessible names (adding aria-labels in the UI if needed) or scoping to the card container and using role-based locators with stable selectors.

sonar-project.properties

+sonar.sources=VideoManager/VManBackend,video-manager-frontend/src
+sonar.tests=video-manager-frontend/tests


sonar.sources includes the .NET backend, but the workflow runs the generic SonarSource/sonarcloud-github-action, which uses the CLI scanner and will not perform C# analysis without the SonarScanner for .NET (MSBuild) integration. Either switch to the .NET scanner flow (begin/build/test/end) for VideoManager/VManBackend, or limit sonar.sources to the frontend so the analysis results are accurate.

The SonarCloud job uses the generic SonarSource/sonarcloud-github-action without a build step. With sonar.sources pointing at VideoManager/VManBackend (C#), this setup typically won’t analyze C# correctly unless you run the SonarScanner for .NET (MSBuild) workflow (begin/build/test/end) and pass the appropriate parameters. Consider updating this job accordingly (or splitting frontend vs backend analysis) to avoid misleading SonarCloud results.

In general, the fix is to explicitly declare permissions for the workflow or for the specific job, restricting the GITHUB_TOKEN to the least privileges needed. Since this job only checks out the repository and runs an external SonarQube scan using SONAR_TOKEN, it only needs read access to repository contents.

The best minimal fix, without changing existing functionality, is to add a permissions block at the workflow root (so it applies to all jobs) specifying contents: read. This will ensure the GITHUB_TOKEN cannot perform write operations while still allowing actions/checkout@v4 to function. Concretely, in .github/workflows/frontend-build.yml, insert:

permissions: contents: read

between the on: block and the jobs: block (i.e., after line 7 and before line 8). No new imports or methods are needed, since this is purely a YAML configuration change.

In general, the fix is to explicitly define a permissions block in the workflow (at the root or per job) so that the GITHUB_TOKEN is limited to the least privileges required. For this workflow, the job only needs to read repository contents (for actions/checkout) and does not perform any write operations to the repo or GitHub resources, so contents: read is sufficient as a minimal baseline.

The single best fix without changing existing functionality is to add a permissions section under the build job in .github/workflows/backend-build.yml. This will scope the permissions to that job only and will not affect other workflows. Insert:

permissions: contents: read

directly under runs-on: ubuntu-latest (line 8), keeping indentation consistent (two extra spaces under the job). No imports or additional methods are needed; this is a pure YAML configuration change.

dotnet run is executed with working-directory: VideoManager, but that directory doesn’t contain a project file (only a solution). This is likely to fail or run an unintended project. Use dotnet run --project <path-to-csproj> (or build/run the intended backend/AppHost explicitly).

The workflow no longer provisions Postgres or applies EF migrations / config used by the backend. VManBackend is configured to use Npgsql (see appsettings) and the E2E tests trigger sync/tag/collection flows that depend on a working DB and a reachable Immich endpoint (previously stubbed). Reintroduce the Postgres service + migration step and the backend env vars (e.g., stub Immich/base URL, connection string) so CI matches the expected test environment.

The backend PID handling is inconsistent: the PID file is written in the VideoManager working directory (and uses $!, which is a bash variable, not PowerShell), but the stop step looks for backend.pid in ./VideoManager/VManBackend using a bash shell. Use a single shell consistently and write/read the PID file from the same directory, or use a built-in job/service mechanism.

video-manager-frontend/sonar-project.properties is configured for SonarCloud (sonar.organization and the comment references the SonarCloud UI), but this workflow uses SonarSource/sonarqube-scan-action@v6 (intended for SonarQube) without setting SONAR_HOST_URL. If the target is SonarCloud, switch to the SonarCloud action (or explicitly configure the host URL) so the scan runs against the correct service.

The Playwright CI workflow no longer installs Node dependencies or sets up Node (no npm ci / actions/setup-node), but it runs npx playwright install and npm run test:e2e. This will fail on a clean runner because npm dependencies (including Playwright) won’t be present. Add a Node setup step and install dependencies in video-manager-frontend before running Playwright.

+            - name: Run Aspire
+              shell: pwsh


The “Run Aspire” step is using PowerShell (shell: pwsh) but bash-style backgrounding (&) and PID capture ($!). In PowerShell this won’t background the process and $! isn’t the child PID, so the job will hang on dotnet run and/or write an invalid PID file. Use a proper PowerShell background process (e.g., Start-Process -PassThru / Start-Job) or switch this step to shell: bash if you want to use &/$! semantics.

npx playwright test will start the dev server defined in video-manager-frontend/playwright.config.ts (webServer: { command: 'npm run dev', url: 'http://localhost:3000', reuseExistingServer: false on CI }). At the same time this workflow starts Aspire, which also starts the Next.js dev server on port 3000. This will lead to a port conflict / flaky startup in CI. Either disable Playwright’s webServer when running under Aspire (via env flag/conditional config) or don’t start the frontend via Aspire and let Playwright manage it.

The PID file is written in the “Run Aspire” step under working-directory: VideoManager, but the “Stop backend” step runs in ./VideoManager/VManBackend. As a result, backend.pid won’t be found and the Aspire process won’t be stopped. Write/read the PID file from a consistent location (or stop the distributed app via a more reliable mechanism).

+  }


ItemsPage waits for /showing \d+ of \d+/ to indicate items loaded, but the actual Items page UI doesn't render any "showing X of Y" text. This will cause expectItemsLoaded() (and any helper that relies on it) to time out consistently. Update the locator/assertion to wait on a real, stable element from the Items page (e.g., the item grid/cards/thumbnail elements, or the disappearance of the loading state).

Same issue as above: this final wait also depends on /showing \d+ of \d+/, which doesn't exist on the current Items page UI, so the helper will time out even after a successful sync. Update to wait for a real Items page signal.

This workflow also starts Aspire, which already starts the Next.js frontend on port 3000. On CI (reuseExistingServer is false), Playwright will try to start another server on the same port and fail. Either don't start the frontend in Aspire for this job, or configure Playwright to reuse the existing server / disable webServer when Aspire is used, or run one of them on a different port.

+  push:
+    branches:
+      - master
+  pull_request:


This workflow only runs on push to master, but other workflows and prior configuration in this repo target main/develop. If the default branch isn't master, this workflow will never run on pushes. Align the branch filter with the repository's actual default/release branches (or remove the push branch filter if not needed).

video-manager-frontend/tests/items.spec.ts

+    const itemsPage = new ItemsPage(page);
+    await itemsPage.goto();
+    await itemsPage.expectToBeVisible();
+    await itemsPage.expectItemsLoaded();
+


This test relies on ItemsPage.expectItemsLoaded() which currently waits for "showing X of Y" text that doesn't exist in the Items page UI. The test will fail even when items load correctly; update the Items page object / assertions to match the actual UI.

.github/workflows/playwright.yml

+              shell: pwsh
+              working-directory: VideoManager
+              run: dotnet run --project VideoManager.AppHost & echo $! > backend.pid


The "Run Aspire" step is executed with shell: pwsh but uses Bash job control (&) and $! to capture the PID. In PowerShell, $! is not the background PID, so backend.pid will not contain the correct process id (and may be empty/incorrect), breaking the later stop step. Use PowerShell-native process launching (e.g., Start-Process / Start-Job) and capture the PID properly, or run this step in bash explicitly.

Suggested change

shell: pwsh

working-directory: VideoManager

run: dotnet run --project VideoManager.AppHost & echo $! > backend.pid

shell: bash

working-directory: VideoManager

run: dotnet run --project VideoManager.AppHost & echo $! > VManBackend/backend.pid

.github/workflows/playwright.yml

+            - name: Stop backend
+              if: always()
+              working-directory: ./VideoManager/VManBackend
+              run: |
+                if [ -f backend.pid ]; then
+                  kill $(cat backend.pid) || true
+                  rm backend.pid
+                fi


The stop step looks for backend.pid under ./VideoManager/VManBackend, but the PID file is written by the Aspire step under the VideoManager working directory. As a result the backend process likely won't be stopped on CI. Write/read the PID file from a consistent path (or use pkill on the specific command), and ensure you're stopping the AppHost process you actually started.

video-manager-frontend/tests/tagging.spec.ts

+    // Create and add a tag to current item
+    const tagName = `E2E Tagging ${Date.now()}`;
+    await taggingPage.createAndAddTag(tagName);
+
+    // Verify tag appears on the item overlay
+    await taggingPage.expectTagInOverlay(tagName);
+
+    // Remove the tag from overlay
+    await taggingPage.removeTagFromOverlay(tagName);
+
+    // Verify tag moved to available tags list
+    await taggingPage.expectTagInAvailableList(tagName);
+


This test creates a new tag via tagging mode but never removes it. Even with unique names, this can pollute state for later tests in the same run (longer tag lists, slower UI, unexpected matches). Consider deleting the created tag at the end (either via tagging mode UI or via the Tags page) or using a cleanup finally similar to tags.spec.ts.

In general, the fix is to add an explicit permissions block limiting the GITHUB_TOKEN to the minimal scopes required. For this workflow, the steps only need to read the code and upload artifacts; they do not need to push commits, modify issues, or update pull requests. Therefore, setting permissions: contents: read at the job level (or workflow root) is sufficient and aligns with CodeQL’s suggestion.

The best fix with minimal functional change is to add a permissions block under the build job in .github/workflows/playwright.yml. This keeps the scope local to the job that actually runs, avoids assumptions about other jobs (none are shown), and documents that the job only requires read access to repository contents. Concretely, insert:

permissions: contents: read

between runs-on: ubuntu-latest (line 11) and steps: (line 13). No imports or additional methods are needed because this is a YAML workflow configuration change only.
