Notes

Test completion

  • TC-00487, TC-00489, TC-00495 (passed), TC-00496: blocked on wg-build-test-release issue 587, now closed - confirm with Jenna whether they can be unblocked.

  • TC-00491, cohort visibility, merged and backported!

  • Issue 212, all learners filter: still open but no blocker

  • Email notification test: not a bug, Google providers don't work on sandbox, needs a different test email provider.

Test failures & blockers

Go / No go

About 3 weeks past the June 23rd target, ~96% complete, 7 blockers https://github.com/orgs/openedx/projects/28/views/17, 4 blocked because of missing backport reviews.

Are we ready to go, or do we need another cycle?

E2E

As of 07/06:

  • The first ADR PR was merged.

  • Max was planning a second ADR proposing the e2e framework approach, to be discussed and hopefully merged.

  • The team decided to stop introducing changes to the Cypress repo and shift toward Playwright.

  • Migration plan: draft the repo architecture first, then migrate the ~50-60 existing test sheet items (adapted for Verawood), then extend coverage to currently unimplemented tests.

  • Target release is Verawood (current), not Willow - the repo is still experimental.

  • Peter was trying again to invite the e2e folks (Ty, Max, Jesse) to a working session - it happened thursday!
