Over six months, this developer contributed to alphagov/forms-admin and related repositories by delivering features and fixes that improved accessibility, localization, and test reliability. Their work included restoring end-to-end file upload validation, refining UI copy, and aligning HTTP status codes to current standards using Ruby, ERB, and Shell scripting. They stabilized browser automation by reverting to Selenium WebDriver and enhanced test maintainability with RSpec and Dockerfile updates. Efforts also focused on code quality, such as renaming authorization methods and cleaning up obsolete UI elements, while rollbacks were carefully managed to safeguard data integrity and ensure consistent, user-friendly experiences across releases.
February 2026 — alphagov/forms-admin: Focused on stability and governance around data-migration tasks. Rolled back the previously added rake task intended to fix creator IDs on copied forms, reverting the change to prevent potential creator attribution misalignment. No new features were released in this repo this month; the effort prioritized safeguarding data integrity and reducing deployment risk. Next steps include validating attribution data and exploring a safer, well-tested approach to creator fixes.

Delivered end-to-end testing reliability for alphagov/forms-e2e-tests in 2025-04 by re-enabling the Check submission status for file uploads feature and stabilizing the test framework. Re-enabled end-to-end validation for file submissions, added a dedicated API secret environment variable and a helper method to verify submissions. Fixed test instability by reverting Cuprite to Selenium WebDriver (Chromedriver) and restoring the prior testing setup; updated Dockerfile and Gemfile to reflect the change. These changes improved test reliability, reduced flaky CI runs, and preserved validation coverage for file upload workflows.
