February 2025 (2025-02): Two core achievements in afharo/kibana focusing on robustness and observability. DeepStrict Zod Schema Validation Utility enforces strict keys, helps prevent runtime issues from excess keys, and adds warnings for transforming or non-inspectable schemas to improve server route validation robustness. Traceparent propagation for APM in Playwright tests enables cross-layer trace correlation across test runner, browser, and Kibana server, improving automated test visibility into performance. Overall impact includes reduced production risk and faster issue diagnosis through better validation and observability.
