This pull request introduces improvements to end-to-end (E2E) testing, developer documentation, and configuration for the crowdfunding platform. The most significant changes include enhanced Playwright E2E tests for reliability and maintainability, updates to documentation for better guidance on using Copilot and scripts, and configuration tweaks to optimize local and CI development workflows.

E2E Test Improvements:

  • Refactored Playwright E2E tests in client/e2e-tests/games.spec.ts and client/e2e-tests/home.spec.ts to use more semantic and robust locators (getByTestId, getByRole, getByText), improving reliability and readability. Tests now check for non-empty content and handle navigation more gracefully. [1] [2] [3] [4]
  • Updated Playwright configuration in client/playwright.config.ts to use CI-appropriate settings (single worker, GitHub reporter), and added screenshot/video capture on failure, as well as standardized timeouts for actions and navigation. Server reuse is now always enabled for faster local runs. [1] [2]

Documentation and Copilot Instructions:

  • Added an "Agent notes" section to .github/copilot-instructions.md with specific guidance for Copilot agent usage, and clarified script usage instructions. [1] [2]
  • Expanded docs/3-custom-instructions.md with step-by-step guidance for using Copilot custom instructions and agent mode, including new notes, screenshots, and resource links. [1] [2]

Developer Experience and Configuration:

  • Updated .vscode/settings.json to set a higher request limit for Copilot agent, supporting more interactive sessions.
  • Ensured Playwright is installed automatically during environment setup by adding npx playwright install to scripts/setup-env.sh.
  • Improved TypeScript configuration in client/tsconfig.json by excluding node_modules for better performance and accuracy.

Frontend and Dependency Updates:

  • Changed Tailspin Toys branding in client/src/components/Header.astro from an h1 to a div for better semantic structure and updated related tests. [1] [2]
  • Upgraded dependencies in client/package.json, including Astro and TypeScript, and added @astrojs/check for improved type safety.

The logic should check that both publisher AND category exist, not OR. The comment above states 'Check that either publisher or category (or both) are present' but the test expects both to be present based on the original logic.

See below for a potential fix:

    // Check that both publisher and category are present
    const publisherExists = await page.getByTestId('game-details-publisher').isVisible();
    const categoryExists = await page.getByTestId('game-details-category').isVisible();
    expect(publisherExists && categoryExists).toBeTruthy();
