July 2025 focused on expanding, stabilizing, and observing Playwright-based E2E testing for kohaku-extension and shared Ambire components, delivering stronger quality gates and business value. Key features delivered include new Playwright E2E tests for RPC failure handling with Polygon RPC, Velcro-based token discovery flows, and comprehensive dashboard/Transfer & Swap & Bridge request monitoring; plus improvements to test stability, test targeting with test-id attributes, and migration cleanup from Puppeteer to Playwright. We also hardened the Trezor testing flow with migration to Playwright, docker initialization fixes, and postinstall patching to ensure reproducible environments. Major bugs fixed include increasing retries for flaky Playwright tests, fixing wrong receive token selection, unifying token IDs to checksummed addresses, stabilizing network management and gas-tank tests, avoiding form resets during Trezor signing, and cleaning up stale bridge routes after failed retries. We also reduced flakiness by adding tolerance for uncategorized dashboard requests and by stabilizing timing for security checks and wallet interactions. Overall impact: significantly improved test coverage across critical user journeys (portfolio load, token discovery, dashboard activity, transfers/bridges), accelerated feedback cycles, reduced release risk due to flaky tests, and enhanced observability. This lays a stronger foundation for faster iterations and more reliable deployments. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Playwright E2E testing at scale; Puppeteer-to-Playwright migration; Trezor integration readiness; postinstall patching and Docker init fixes; test-id targeted selectors; token address checksum normalization; advanced stability practices (steps, reusable selectors, retries); and improved observability for uncategorized requests.
