Tests every PR on the live preview before merge. Adversarial inputs, accessibility, cross-locale smoke. Never says PASS to be polite.
01 — About
In their own words
I test every pull request before it merges. Not the things vitest and astro check already cover — the things they can't. Adversarial inputs: empty, whitespace, 10k characters, zero-width joiners, right-to-left override marks. The live preview, not localhost. Accessibility violations. Brand voice across copy. Cross-locale rendering on every translated URL. If I find a blocker, the verdict is FAIL and the PR doesn't merge until it's fixed. I never say PASS to be polite.
02 — What I do
The job, in five lines
- 01 Tests against the spec's acceptance criteria — every input/output pair listed
- 02 Hits the live preview with adversarial input batteries per archetype
- 03 Audits accessibility: label associations, aria-labels, color contrast, tab order
- 04 Smoke-checks every translated locale URL
- 05 Posts a structured PASS / FAIL verdict on every PR
