David Mann

David Mann contributed to the hmcts/darts-automation-playwright repository by developing and enhancing automated testing features for the DARTS Portal and admin system. Over three months, he delivered privacy-preserving event obfuscation, expanded test coverage for case expiry workflows, and implemented batch size management for automated tasks. Using Playwright, TypeScript, and Cucumber, David improved test reliability by disabling parallel execution, introducing robust input validation, and reorganizing test suites for maintainability. He addressed test flakiness through targeted stability fixes and streamlined test prerequisites, resulting in more predictable CI feedback and safer deployments. His work demonstrated depth in test automation and system configuration.

May 2025 (hmcts/darts-automation-playwright): Key focus on delivering a privacy-preserving Event Obfuscation feature and strengthening test coverage for the Case Expiry workflow. Key features delivered include Event Obfuscation in the DARTS Portal (search events with text obfuscation and verification steps) and Case Expiry Test Suite Improvements (formatting for readability and regression tagging to enable execution in both sequential and regression suites, expanding coverage). No major bug fixes were logged this month; however, formatting and script adjustments reduced test flakiness and improved maintainability. Overall impact includes enhanced privacy controls, improved test reliability, and faster release readiness. Technologies/skills demonstrated include Playwright automation, cucumber feature/style improvements, test tagging with @regression, verification steps, and test suite orchestration.
