🧪 Test Development

Adding New Tests

1. Identify the feature to test
2. Choose the appropriate test suite (dynamic-loading or bundle-optimization)
3. Follow the existing pattern for test structure
4. Use descriptive test names that explain the expected behavior
5. Include proper assertions for all important aspects

Test Structure Pattern

test.describe('Feature Category', () => {
  test('should perform expected behavior', async ({ page }) => {
    // Arrange: Set up test conditions
    await page.goto('http://127.0.0.1:8080');
    
    // Act: Perform the action being tested
    await page.click('.load-component-btn');
    
    // Assert: Verify the expected outcome
    await expect(page.locator('.component-success')).toBeVisible();
  });
});

Best Practices

• Use descriptive test names that explain the expected behavior
• Test one concept per test for easier debugging
• Include proper timeouts for async operations
• Use page object patterns for complex selectors
• Test both positive and negative scenarios
• Verify accessibility in every test

🚨 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Server Not Running

# Error: "could not find the root package of the target crate"
# Solution: Run from correct directory
cd book-examples/leptos
trunk serve

WASM Loading Issues

# Error: "WASM bindings not found"
# Solution: Wait for WASM initialization
await page.waitForFunction(() => window.wasmBindings !== undefined);

Component Loading Timeouts

# Error: "Component loading timeout"
# Solution: Increase timeout for slow operations
await expect(element).toBeVisible({ timeout: 15000 });

Playwright Installation Issues

# Error: "Playwright not found"
# Solution: Install and setup Playwright
npm install -D @playwright/test
npx playwright install

Performance Issues

• Slow test execution: Check if development server is responsive
• Memory issues: Verify no memory leaks in component loading
• Timeout errors: Adjust timeouts for slower environments
