Add comprehensive documentation to improve developer experience (#180)
This PR addresses multiple user pain points by adding extensive documentation
that covers troubleshooting, best practices, and framework-specific guides.
Key Improvements:
Documentation Structure:
- Added TROUBLESHOOTING.md with solutions to common issues (database errors,
webpack compilation, factory loading, authentication, parallel testing)
- Added PLAYWRIGHT_GUIDE.md providing complete Playwright support documentation
with feature parity to Cypress functionality
- Added VCR_GUIDE.md covering both insert/eject and use_cassette modes with
GraphQL-specific configuration examples
- Added BEST_PRACTICES.md with recommended patterns for test organization,
performance optimization, and security
- Added DX_IMPROVEMENTS.md summarizing all developer experience enhancements
Enhanced README:
- Restructured with Quick Start section for new users
- Added clear navigation to specialized guides
- Improved visibility of key features and use cases
Rake Tasks and Server Management:
- Documented new rake tasks (cypress:open, cypress:run, playwright:open, playwright:run)
- Added server lifecycle hooks documentation (before_server_start, after_server_start,
after_transaction_start, after_state_reset, before_server_stop)
- Included migration guide from manual server management to automated approach
- Added cypress-rails compatibility guide
Issues Addressed:
Directly resolves documentation gaps for issues #175 (VCR errors), #169 (Playwright
fixtures), #160 (VCR modes), #157 (environment config), #155 (database errors),
#152 (server management), #146 (webpack errors), #137 (authentication), #119
(parallel testing), #118 (headless mode), #114 (transactional fixtures)
Impact:
For new installations: Provides clear onboarding path with quick start guide and
comprehensive examples
For existing installations: Offers solutions to common problems and migration guides
for new features without requiring code changes
Breaking Changes: None
Security Implications: Adds documentation for secure command handling and
authentication best practices1 parent d26d966 commit 5cea37d
