Phase 3 E2E Tests Implementation Plan

For agentic workers: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (- [ ]) syntax for tracking.

Goal: Implement comprehensive Playwright E2E test suite with 5 modular workflows (login, scan-adjust, AI extraction, admin settings, offline sync), each running in isolated Docker containers with parallel execution completing <30 minutes.

Architecture: Modular workflow design with shared fixtures (db, ldap, auth) and utilities (assertions, docker orchestration). Each workflow tests independently with dedicated ports, database, and LDAP server (where needed).

Tech Stack: Playwright, Docker Compose, SQLite, OpenLDAP fixture container, Node.js

    // Stop intercepting
    await page.unroute('**/api/sync');

    // Retry should succeed
    await waitForNetworkIdle(page);
  });
});
  • Step 2: Verify file exists

Run: cat frontend/e2e/workflows/5-offline-sync.spec.ts | head -50 Expected: TypeScript test file shown

  • Step 3: Commit
git add frontend/e2e/workflows/5-offline-sync.spec.ts
git commit -m "feat: add offline sync workflow E2E tests"

Phase D: Verification & Documentation

Task 16: Create E2E README & Verify Execution

Files:

  • Create: frontend/e2e/README.md

  • Modify: frontend/package.json (add E2E scripts)

  • Step 1: Write E2E README

Create frontend/e2e/README.md:

# Playwright E2E Tests

Comprehensive end-to-end test suite for aInventory using Playwright with Docker containerization.

## Architecture

**5 Modular Workflows:**
1. **Login** (LDAP + local auth)
2. **Scan-Adjust** (barcode scanning, stock adjustment)
3. **AI Extraction** (photo upload, AI label extraction)
4. **Admin Settings** (configuration management)
5. **Offline Sync** (offline queue, sync idempotency)

Each workflow runs in isolated Docker containers with:
- Dedicated SQLite database
- Optional OpenLDAP server
- Separate frontend/backend ports
- Parallel execution support

## Prerequisites

- Docker & Docker Compose
- Node.js 20+
- Playwright (`npm install` in frontend/)

## Setup

```bash
cd frontend
npm install

Running Tests

All Workflows (Parallel)

npm run e2e

Expected runtime: ~8-10 minutes

Specific Workflow

npm run e2e -- workflows/1-login.spec.ts

Debug Mode (Headed Browser)

npm run e2e:debug

View HTML Report

npm run e2e:report

Configuration

Each workflow uses environment variables in .env.e2e.workflow-N:

  • BACKEND_PORT: FastAPI server port
  • FRONTEND_PORT: Next.js dev server port
  • LDAP_PORT: OpenLDAP port (when enabled)
  • LDAP_ENABLED: true/false
  • AI_PROVIDER: gemini or claude

Troubleshooting

Docker Port Conflicts

docker ps  # Check running containers
docker-compose -f docker-compose.e2e.yml down  # Stop all

LDAP Connection Issues

docker logs <ldap-container-id>
ldapwhoami -H ldap://localhost:3389 -D "cn=admin,dc=ainventory,dc=local" -w admin

Backend Health Check Failing

curl http://localhost:8906/health
docker logs <backend-container-id>

Tests Timing Out

  • Increase timeout in playwright.config.ts
  • Check Docker container resources
  • Verify network connectivity

├── fixtures/           # Shared test setup
├── utils/              # Helper utilities
├── docker-compose.e2e.yml
└── playwright.config.ts

CI/CD Integration

# In CI environment
npm run e2e -- --reporter=github

Reports: playwright-report/index.html


- [ ] **Step 2: Add E2E scripts to package.json**

Edit `frontend/package.json`, add to `scripts` section:
```json
"e2e": "playwright test",
"e2e:debug": "playwright test --debug --headed",
"e2e:report": "playwright show-report"
  • Step 3: Verify scripts added

Run: cat frontend/package.json | grep -A 5 '"e2e"' Expected: E2E scripts shown

  • Step 4: Run smoke test (one workflow)

Run: cd frontend && npm run e2e -- workflows/1-login.spec.ts --workers=1

Expected output:

✓ 8 passed (45s)

(Note: This will take ~2-3 minutes per workflow due to Docker startup)

  • Step 5: Commit README and scripts
git add frontend/e2e/README.md frontend/package.json
git commit -m "docs: add E2E testing guide and npm scripts"
  • Step 6: Final verification - check all test files exist

Run:

find frontend/e2e -name "*.spec.ts" -o -name "*.ts" | wc -l

Expected: 12+ files (5 workflows + 4 fixtures + 3 utils)

  • Step 7: Final commit - Phase 3 complete
git add -A && git commit -m "feat: phase 3 E2E tests complete - 5 workflows, Docker isolation, <30min parallel"

Self-Review Checklist

Spec Coverage:

  • Playwright installation & config (Task 1-3)
  • Database fixture with seeding/cleanup (Task 5)
  • LDAP fixture for auth testing (Task 6)
  • Auth helpers (login/logout) (Task 7)
  • Custom assertions (Task 8)
  • Docker orchestration (Task 9)
  • Navigation helpers (Task 10)
  • 5 workflow test files (Tasks 11-15)
    • Login (LDAP + local)
    • Scan-Adjust
    • AI Extraction
    • Admin Settings
    • Offline Sync
  • README & npm scripts (Task 16)
  • Per-workflow Docker isolation with dedicated ports
  • Error handling scenarios per workflow
  • Offline queue & sync testing

No Placeholders:

  • All docker-compose configuration complete
  • All fixture code written (no TODOs)
  • All test scenarios implemented with actual selectors
  • All assertions use real Playwright matchers
  • No vague steps ("add appropriate error handling" etc.)

Type Consistency:

  • createDockerEnvironment() returns consistent interface
  • createDatabaseFixture() returns consistent interface
  • createLDAPFixture() returns consistent interface
  • Port offsets consistent (8906, 8916, 8926, 8936, 8946)
  • Workflow IDs match file names

Two execution options:

1. Subagent-Driven (Recommended) — I dispatch a fresh subagent per task, review between tasks, ensures quality

  • REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: superpowers:subagent-driven-development
  • Fresh subagent per task + two-stage review

2. Inline Execution — Execute tasks in this session using executing-plans, batch execution with checkpoints

  • REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: superpowers:executing-plans
  • Batch execution with checkpoints for review

Which approach?
