Summary

Stands up a self-contained Playwright E2E suite at e2e-tests/playwright/, wires it into CI as a PR-gated job, and lands one baseline spec covering the core authoring journey end to end.

Implements MM-70125, following Docs Frontend / Middle-Tier Spec §11 with two deviations noted below.

What's here

Area
Project Own package.json / tsconfig / eslint.config.mjs, so nothing leaks into the webapp's tooling
Provisioning tests/helpers/mmcontainer.ts — testcontainers starts Mattermost + Postgres, installs the built plugin, asserts preconditions
Helpers API-only setup (auth, user, team) plus a Docs /api/v1 client used as a synchronisation barrier
Page objects Spaces sidebar, create-space modal, space/page view, share modal, Find-docs switcher
Spec tests/docs/create_and_publish.spec.ts
CI e2e-playwright-tests job + .github/actions/playwright-e2e-test composite action
Dev entry point make test-e2e

The baseline spec

As the author: create a space → add a page → write a body covering headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, inline code, blockquote, bullet and ordered lists, a horizontal rule and a code block → publish → share the space with a teammate.

As that teammate: find the space in the sidebar and open the page; reach it again through the Find-docs switcher by click, then by keyboard shortcut; finally load the published URL directly. Every format is asserted as its rendered element, so the content is checked to survive publishing.

Deviations from §11

1. Provisioning uses testcontainers, not a CI services: block. §11 proposed the Playbooks model and left provisioning as an open question. Docs needs a non-stock server — the EnableDocs feature flag, the S channel type, Postgres only — so encoding that in code keeps local and CI runs on one path instead of leaving developers to hand-configure a server. Cost: Docker is required locally, and ~20s of container startup per run.

2. The journey is UI-driven; only users and teams are seeded over the API. This exercises the product rather than the REST layer, which server/api_handler_test.go already covers. (§11's caveat that space/page seeding waits on the server API is now moot — that API has landed, and tests/helpers/docs.ts uses it.)

Notes for reviewers

The suite runs against the :master development image. Docs needs server features that exist only there, and min_server_version rises as it evolves, so a pinned build would eventually be too old rather than merely stale. Setup asserts the server version and the feature flag and that the plugin actually activated — mmctl plugin enable reports success even when activation then fails on a bundle built without a Linux binary — so a server that cannot run Docs fails by name rather than as opaque 501s. MM_IMAGE pins a build to reproduce a run or bisect a server regression.

Waiting for the body to autosave polls the stored draft, not the on-screen indicator. The indicator still reads "saved" from the preceding title save, so asserting it is satisfied before the body is sent — which published an empty page until this was fixed.

The switcher shortcut is read from aria-keyshortcuts. The app picks Meta or Control from the user agent, and Playwright's Desktop Chrome descriptor reports a Windows UA even on macOS, so a hard-coded Meta+K silently never fires.

Unit test results are now published too. The test job moves from the shared plugin-ci/test action to make test-ci, the only target that emits JUnit for Go, split into server and webapp steps so a failure in one still publishes the other's report.

Known gaps

  • Nothing gates merges on this repo today. The org-level ruleset requires a pull request but no status checks, so making e2e blocking is a repository settings change rather than a workflow change. Deliberately left out of this PR.
  • The master tag floats. It was observed lagging behind server master by enough to miss a feature flag entirely, so a green run does not prove the newest server was used. Pin with MM_IMAGE when that matters.
  • Video is recorded on every run while the suite is new; drop test.use({video: 'on'}) from the spec once it has a track record (PW_VIDEO remains for on-demand use).
  • The remaining §11 coverage (sidebar DnD/favourites, switcher depth, smoke navigation) follows separately.

Test plan

make test-e2e          # requires Docker; builds the bundle and runs the suite

Verified locally: suite 2/2, and 6/6 under --repeat-each=3. make check-style, make test-ci, and the e2e project's own lint and type-check all pass.

CI has run green on this branch: lint, test, build and e2e-playwright-tests all succeeded, with playwright-test-results (JUnit, traces, videos) and unit-test-results (server and webapp JUnit) published as run artifacts. The e2e job took just over two minutes.

Stands up a self-contained Playwright suite at e2e-tests/playwright/, with
its own package.json, tsconfig and eslint config so nothing leaks into the
webapp's tooling, plus a PR-gated CI job.

Provisioning uses testcontainers rather than a CI services block. Docs needs
a non-stock server -- the EnableDocs feature flag, the Space channel type,
Postgres only -- so encoding that in code keeps local and CI runs on one
path instead of leaving developers to hand-configure a server. The server
image is pinned to a commit-SHA dev tag; the floating master tag lags far
enough behind to lack Docs core support entirely, which would otherwise
surface only as opaque 501s. Setup asserts the server version, the feature
flag, and that the plugin actually activated -- "plugin enable" reports
success even when activation then fails on a bundle built without a Linux
binary.

The baseline spec drives the whole authoring journey through the UI --
create a space, write a page, publish it, share the space -- and seeds only
users and teams over the API, so it exercises the product rather than the
REST layer that api_handler_test.go already covers. A second test signs in
as the added member, reaches the space and page through the product's own
navigation -- the spaces sidebar, the Find-docs switcher by click, and the
switcher by keyboard shortcut -- and only then loads the published URL
directly, so discovery is covered rather than assumed.

The switcher shortcut is read from the Find docs button's aria-keyshortcuts
rather than hard-coded: the app picks Meta or Control from the user agent,
and Playwright's Desktop Chrome descriptor reports a Windows UA even on
macOS, so assuming Meta+K on a Mac silently never fires.

The body covers the editor's text formats: headings, bold, italic,
strikethrough, inline code, blockquote, bullet and ordered lists, a
horizontal rule and a code block. They are typed as markdown so TipTap's
input rules produce them, because Docs mounts the editor with
contentType='json', which disables both the Markdown extension and the
markdown paste handler. Both the author and the reader assert the rendered
elements, so the formats are checked to survive publishing.

Waiting for the body to autosave polls the stored draft rather than the
on-screen indicator: the indicator still reads "saved" from the preceding
title save, so it is satisfied before the body is sent.

CI publishes machine-readable results for every suite: the e2e job uploads
its JUnit report, traces, screenshots and videos, and the unit test job now
runs make test-ci -- the only target that emits JUnit for Go -- split into
server and webapp steps so a failure in one still publishes the other's
report. Playwright browsers are cached by installed version, which takes a
chromium download off every run.

Also excludes e2e-tests from golangci-lint, which otherwise lints Go
sources vendored inside an npm dependency under node_modules, and gitignores
the JUnit report that make test-ci writes at the repo root.

Note: no CI check currently gates merges on this repository -- the org-level
ruleset requires a pull request but no status checks -- so making e2e
blocking is a repository settings change, not a change to this workflow.

Context: /longshot MM-70125 -- Playwright E2E infra. Confluence spec
Docs Frontend / Middle-Tier Spec section 11, with two agreed deviations:
testcontainers with one shared container for provisioning, and a UI-driven
baseline flow with API-driven setup. Body-content coverage was added after
rebasing onto MM-69893, which mounted the real editor.
The pin was chosen because the floating master tag was observed missing the
EnableDocs feature flag entirely. That tag has since been rebuilt and carries
it, and the suite passes against it.

Tracking master suits the dependency better: Docs needs server features that
exist only there, and min_server_version rises as it evolves, so a pinned
build eventually becomes too old rather than merely stale. The startup checks
already turn a server that cannot run Docs into a named failure, and MM_IMAGE
still pins a build for reproducing a run or bisecting a server regression.

Refs MM-70125
The suite had accumulated multi-line commentary that restated what the code
already showed. Keeps the reasons a reader cannot recover from the code --
why baseURL cannot live in the config, why the autosave indicator is not a
barrier, why the code fence is typed with a separate space, why the switcher
shortcut is read from aria-keyshortcuts -- and drops the narration around
them.

Also declares MM_IMAGE in ci.yml, following the agents repo, so the server
under test is visible in a workflow diff and changeable from repository
variables rather than only in the helper's fallback.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f54a7

The PR adds Playwright end-to-end coverage and CI reporting; however, concurrent non-pull-request runs may replace pending runs and cause build or E2E artifacts to be missing. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up on CI concurrency behavior.

Record video only for failures.

test.use({video: 'on'}) overrides the project configuration and records a video for every run, including passing CI runs. That grows the uploaded artifacts for no diagnostic value. Use retain-on-failure, or delete this line and keep the setting in playwright.config.ts so all specs behave the same way.

23-35: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Pass the username as a string instead of building a RegExp.

Playwright matches an accessible name given as a string by case-insensitive substring, and getByText behaves the same way. new RegExp(username) therefore adds no matching power. It does add risk: any regex metacharacter in a future username changes the pattern. It also triggers the two regexp-from-variable lint warnings on these lines. Seeded usernames come from createUser in e2e-tests/playwright/tests/helpers/user.ts, so the reported ReDoS threat does not apply here, but the plain string is both safer and simpler.

Consider naming the dialog, as ShareSpaceModalPage does.

page.getByRole('dialog') matches any open dialog. ShareSpaceModalPage scopes its dialog with an accessible name. An accessible name here keeps expect(this.dialog).toBeHidden() on line 27 tied to this modal, and it avoids a strict-mode violation if a second dialog ever renders in this flow.

♻️ Proposed change
-        this.dialog = page.getByRole('dialog');

Adjust the name to match the modal's actual accessible name.

The cleanup try began only after the network, Postgres, and Mattermost
containers were all allocated. A Mattermost start failure therefore
orphaned the other two: globalSetup never returns its teardown closure,
and Ryuk is disabled on some CI images, so retries could exhaust CI
resources.

Wrap every allocation in the same try and stop() from its catch.

Context: CodeRabbit review on PR #19.
MM_E2E_USE_EXISTING_SERVER skipped the server-version, EnableDocs, and
plugin-activation checks the container path runs, so an incompatible
server failed later as an opaque 501 mid-test rather than during setup.

Move those checks into preflight.ts and run them from both paths.

Context: CodeRabbit review on PR #19.
The switcher pre-highlights the first entry and ArrowDown wraps, so a
single press always activated the second result. Whenever a query
matched more than one document, Enter opened the wrong one.

Walk the highlight onto the wanted option before pressing Enter.

Context: CodeRabbit review on PR #19.
The dialog is now named after the space rather than "Share space", and
each pick commits on select instead of behind an Add button.

Context: Share modal rework in 0436350 broke the page object.
playwright.config.ts sets no expect.timeout, so this poll had the 5s
default to cover a 1s client debounce plus a server round trip.

Context: CodeRabbit review on PR #19.
The state file holds the admin password at whatever the umask allows,
and every seeded user shared one password committed to the repository.
Both matter against a real server, which MM_E2E_USE_EXISTING_SERVER
supports.

Write the state file 0600 and generate a password per user.

response.ok before calling response.json(); when the HTTP response is
unsuccessful, fail setup with an error that includes the response status. Keep
parsing and version validation only for successful responses in the existing
preflight flow.

- Around line 47-58: In selectResultWithKeyboard, give the nested
toHaveAttribute assertion a short local timeout so it cannot consume the full
toPass retry window; retain the 10-second toPass timeout and configure short
retry intervals.

A rejected stop() skipped the remaining resources and, because it threw
out of the catch in start(), replaced the setup error that triggered it.

Contain each failure, keep the network last, and log what did not stop.

Context: CodeRabbit review on PR #19.
A 401, 5xx, or proxy error was parsed as config, surfacing as a JSON
error or a bogus version mismatch instead of the real status.

Context: CodeRabbit review on PR #19.
toHaveAttribute's own 5s retry window left the surrounding toPass room
for barely two ArrowDown presses within its 10s budget.

@calebroseland - Approved as is. Agents review ("/review-code --full")from https://github.com/catalintomai/mattermost-claude-agents suggested strongly these two at least, but I don^t see them as blockers.:

  1. space_page.ts:46 — scope expectOpen to a space-home signal instead of a page-wide getByText, or three navigation assertions in the spec can never fail.
  2. ci.yml:111-132 — add a concurrency group with cancel-in-progress so pushes don't queue multiple 45-minute Docker runs.

expectOpen matched the space title anywhere on the page, and the sidebar
lists that title whether or not the navigation landed, so three of the
spec's navigation assertions could never fail. Assert the space route and
the header's title trigger instead.

Also add a workflow concurrency group so superseded pull request pushes
cancel their in-flight 45-minute e2e run; master and tag runs queue so a
push cannot drop the artifact delivery and release download.

Context: PR #19 review findings on space_page.ts:46 and ci.yml.

Comment thread .github/workflows/ci.yml Outdated
A shared concurrency group keeps only the newest pending run, so a second
push to master cancelled the first one's queued run and the artifact
upload with it. Group only pull requests, where superseding is the point;
give every other run a group of its own.

Context: PR #19 review follow-up on the concurrency block.
