Andrea Barbasso focused on enhancing test reliability for the 4Science/dspace-angular repository by addressing instability in Cypress end-to-end tests. To reduce flaky failures in continuous integration, Andrea implemented a targeted fix that increased Cypress command and request timeouts, allowing slower operations to complete and minimizing false negatives. This adjustment improved the determinism of integration tests, supporting more reliable release validation. Working primarily with TypeScript and Cypress, Andrea demonstrated a strong understanding of E2E testing strategies and configuration management. The work reflected a thoughtful approach to test stability, contributing depth to the project’s quality assurance and development workflow within a short timeframe.
