James Wild developed and maintained automated regression testing and user management features for the NHSDigital/electronic-prescription-service-api-regression-tests repository over eight months. He delivered robust CI/CD workflows, enhanced security automation with secret scanning, and implemented user profile management using AWS Lambda, Cognito, and DynamoDB. His work included refactoring UI flows, expanding test coverage for role-based access, and improving test reliability through Playwright and TypeScript. By aligning test automation with evolving UI and backend changes, James reduced production risk and improved developer feedback cycles. He also maintained development environments, managed dependencies, and ensured security compliance, demonstrating depth in backend and infrastructure engineering.

February 2025 focused on delivering and stabilizing UI/regression-test coverage for the electronic prescription service API. Key features delivered include: - User Role Management UI/Flow Refactor: consolidated role selection flow, updated related feature files and page objects, and aligned test steps for consistency and maintainability; migration to axios to improve reliability of HTTP interactions. - CPTS API Health Ping Endpoint: added a new health ping endpoint for the CPTS API with a regression test; integrated into the test workflow to validate deployment health through ping success checks. - 404 Page Handling in CPTS UI: regression tests for 404 redirects for unauthenticated users and error page with a link to prescription search for authenticated users; tests refactored to differentiate between logged-in and logged-out scenarios and correct element checks. Major bugs fixed: - 404 page regression test alignment and fixes to ensure accurate verification of redirects and error states (fix: [AEA-4743]). - Stability improvement related to the HTTP client, migrating tests to use axios (fix: [AEA-0000]). Overall impact and accomplishments: - Significantly expanded automated test coverage for UI flows and deployment health checks, reducing regression risk and speeding feedback for releases. - Improved test suite maintainability and reliability, enabling faster onboarding and less flaky tests. - Validated deployment health and user experience in CPTS UI scenarios, contributing to higher confidence in production readiness. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Test automation design and refactoring (likely Cypress-based), regression testing, and test workflow integration. - JavaScript/TypeScript, axios for HTTP interactions, UI/UX flow testing, and test data management.
