Additional enhancements covered Feedback Data Type handling for correct data-type categorization and expanded admin visibility of feedback_type. Strengthened testing and infra with migration renames, test utilities, Cypress fixtures, and lint improvements to support schema changes and comprehensive end-to-end testing. Resolved stability issues in views queries and section migrations, and added admin/version filtering improvements to improve reliability and data governance. Overall impact: Improved data organization and query performance, better analytics and reporting, and a more robust deployment pipeline with higher test coverage and maintainability. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Django migrations and admin customization, data modeling with enums and fields, end-to-end testing with Cypress, test utilities, linting, and robust infra automation.
