Running Tests

Prerequisites

# Install dependencies (already done)
npm install

# Install Playwright browsers (already done in sandbox)
npx playwright install chromium

Test Commands

# Run all tests against live site
npm run test:e2e

# Run tests against local Jekyll server (requires server running)
npm run test:e2e:local

# Run with visible browser
npm run test:e2e:headed

# Run with interactive UI
npm run test:e2e:ui

# View HTML report
npm run test:e2e:report

Testing Against Local Server

# Terminal 1: Start Jekyll server
bundle exec jekyll serve

# Terminal 2: Run tests
npm run test:e2e:local

CI/CD Integration

The GitHub Actions workflow will:

1. Run automatically on push/PR to main branch
2. Run weekly on Sundays at midnight UTC
3. Can be manually triggered via workflow_dispatch
4. Upload test reports as artifacts (30-day retention)
5. Upload screenshots on failure (7-day retention)
6. Comment on PR if tests fail

Expected Test Execution

When tests run successfully against the live site:

• Total tests: 72 (24 tests × 3 viewports)
• Execution time: ~2-5 minutes
• Report location: playwright-report/index.html
• Screenshots: test-results/ (only on failure)

Verification Steps

1. Verify Configuration

cat playwright.config.js

✅ Config exists with correct base URL and viewports

2. Verify Test Suite

cat tests/e2e/structural-regression.spec.js | grep "test(" | wc -l

✅ 24 test cases defined

3. Verify npm Scripts

npm run | grep test:e2e

✅ All 5 e2e scripts available

4. Verify Workflow

cat .github/workflows/playwright.yml

✅ Workflow configured for automated testing

Next Steps

For Users with Internet Access

To run tests against the live site:

npm run test:e2e

For Local Testing

1. Start Jekyll server:

   bundle exec jekyll serve
   

2. Run tests:

   npm run test:e2e:local
   

3. View report:

   npm run test:e2e:report
   

Troubleshooting

Network Access Required

The tests target the live GitHub Pages site at: https://asisaga.github.io/theme.asisaga.com/

In sandboxed environments without internet access, tests will fail to connect. This is expected and will work correctly when:

1. Running in CI/CD with network access
2. Running locally with internet access
3. Running against local Jekyll server with TEST_LOCAL=1

Common Solutions

Problem: Tests timeout or fail to connect Solution: Ensure network access or use local testing mode

Problem: Jekyll server not running for local tests Solution: Start server with bundle exec jekyll serve

Problem: Browser not installed Solution: Run npx playwright install chromium

• Playwright Documentation

Success Criteria

✅ Playwright installed and configured ✅ Test suite created with 24 test cases ✅ npm scripts added for easy execution ✅ CI/CD workflow configured ✅ Documentation complete ✅ gitignore updated ✅ Jekyll config updated

Summary

Playwright structural regression testing is now fully configured and ready to use. The tests will run automatically on CI/CD and can be run locally against either the live site or a local Jekyll server. All tests verify the semantic HTML structure, accessibility standards, responsive behavior, and component presence of the Genesis Theme demo page.
