Brandon Welch developed and maintained the automated regression test suite for the MeasureAuthoringTool/madie-cypress repository, focusing on stabilizing end-to-end workflows for measure authoring and validation. He engineered robust Cypress-based test automation, integrating API testing and UI validation to ensure reliable CI feedback and reduce release risk. Using TypeScript and JavaScript, Brandon refactored test infrastructure, improved session and authentication handling, and expanded coverage for new features such as RTE fields and CQL library sharing. His work addressed flakiness, streamlined test data management, and aligned tests with evolving design systems, resulting in faster feedback cycles and higher confidence in software quality.

March 2025 in MeasureAuthoringTool/madie-cypress focused on stabilizing and expanding the regression automation suite. Delivered targeted fixes for critical regression test failures across service-level and web UI paths (MeasureBundle, QDMPopulationCriteriaPage, Lighthouse), and implemented substantial test-automation refactors to reduce flakiness and improve maintainability. Expanded coverage includes Qi Core Shift Test Case Date Coverage, Qi Core Expansion, and PopulationSelect usage in tests, plus automated CQL Libraries pagination tests. Added and updated regression tests to reflect Library Action Center UI changes, and enabled previously skipped tests to improve regression coverage. Also tightened test stability through systematic redundancy elimination in test helpers and page objects, and updated support files such as MeasureGroupPage.ts to utilize more robust helpers. Key business value and impact: faster, more reliable CI feedback for new measure authoring features; reduced maintenance cost via test-code deduplication and stabilized selectors; broader, more resilient QA coverage for Qi Core, PC criteria, and CQL libraries, enabling safer releases and quicker bug detection.
