Month 2025-09: Delivered integration testing stability and data safety enhancements for alphagov/govuk-helm-charts. Key actions included suspending weekly database syncs to prevent content overwrites during the Sept–Oct test window; enforcing backup-only operations in integration environments; and temporarily removing the authenticating_proxy_production restore job to avoid unintended data restoration. These changes improve test reliability, protect production-like data during cross-government testing, and maintain a clear path for controlled restores.
