Kasia Walsh
Over a two-month period, contributed to the ministryofjustice/offender-categorisation repository by delivering two features focused on workflow clarity and backend modernization. Enhanced the categorisation process by updating review date messaging and page structure, improving user guidance and data consistency through targeted frontend changes and comprehensive Cypress end-to-end tests. Subsequently, upgraded the backend to Express 5, introducing a new request parsing middleware and refactoring routes for improved stability and security. This work involved JavaScript, TypeScript, and Node.js, and prioritized maintainability and future feature delivery. No bugs were reported, reflecting careful implementation and attention to user experience and system reliability throughout both features.

Apr 1, 2026April 2026 monthly summary for ministryofjustice/offender-categorisation: Focused on clarifying the categorisation workflow by delivering the Categorisation Page Review Date Clarity feature. This included updating headings and messages for review dates across categorisation, categoriser, recategoriser, and supervisor landing pages, as well as updating titles. Cypress tests were updated to cover the new messaging and page structure. The work is tracked under SI-2090 (commit 2db4230bee37c0252070749961b4f5567c03d906). No major defects were reported; resolved minor UX inconsistency around review-date messaging to prevent user confusion. Business value: clearer guidance for users, reduced potential support queries, and more consistent data governance across the categorisation flow. Skills: frontend UI updates, Cypress testing, cross-team collaboration.
