Oct 1, 2025October 2025 performance summary for mnbenefits/shiba: Removed feature flags and embedded logic to simplify the code path, reduce toggle debt, and improve reliability. Specifically, the child-care feature flag was removed with tests cleaned up to stop mocking/enabling the flag while preserving existing functionality. The WIC recommendation flag was removed and its logic integrated directly into showWicMessage to deliver default-on behavior. Test stability and accessibility were improved in tandem with these changes, contributing to more reliable deployments and faster feedback.
