Worked on the SDA-SE/sda-dropwizard-commons repository to enhance backend reliability by addressing a persistent integration test issue. Focused on improving test stability, the developer updated Java-based integration tests to target the stable public endpoint at https://api.github.com, replacing the less reliable sda.se endpoint. This change reduced continuous integration flakiness and minimized deployment risks, resulting in faster feedback loops and lower maintenance overhead. The work emphasized integration testing best practices and included clear, traceable documentation at the commit level. Throughout the month, the developer applied backend development skills and Java expertise to deliver a targeted bug fix that improved overall project stability.
