Why
The platform needs stronger quality gates to ensure stable, predictable behavior across releases. A complete testing and review program will reduce regressions, improve confidence in deployments, and surface performance, accessibility, and security risks earlier.
What Changes
- Introduce a unified automated test suite strategy covering unit, integration, and end-to-end paths.
- Add end-to-end test coverage for core UI flows, API contracts, and database state transitions.
- Add WCAG-focused accessibility checks and include them in quality gates.
- Add page speed and runtime performance checks with repeatable thresholds.
- Add baseline security testing (dependency, config, and common web vulnerability checks).
- Add user-experience validation scenarios for key journeys and failure states.
- Define comprehensive coverage expectations for critical features and edge cases.
- Add a structured code-review/remediation/optimization pass to resolve quality debt.
- Add performance monitoring and alerting requirements for production health visibility.
