Problem
Public portfolios often drift: links fail, CVs disappear, live products change and API contracts break without a single release boundary detecting the regression.

Context and ownership
The problem, the decisions I owned and the boundary of my contribution.
My role
I designed the suite boundaries, fixtures, page objects, negative tests, route mocks, accessibility checks and CI jobs around public evidence that can be verified without private credentials.

Key product decisions
- Mobile recruiter journey with stable role and label locators
- SEO, JSON-LD, PDF, security-header and 404 contracts
- Read-only live API smoke checks plus opt-in isolated writes
- Deterministic UI regression through network interception
- Data-driven filters and project case-study checks
- Playwright
- Node.js
- APIRequestContext
- axe-core
- GitHub Actions
- HTML reports

Verification and release boundary
How the build is checked, delivered and kept honest about what is production-ready.
Automated verification
- Twenty-six tests are listed across five focused files
- Thirteen local SecureTaskOps API/UI checks pass with isolated writes enabled
- Seven live read-only API checks pass while three write checks are intentionally skipped
- Dependency audit reports no known vulnerabilities
Deployment
GitHub Actions separates local writable regression, live read-only smoke and portfolio/product contracts. Each job uploads HTML reports and failure evidence for 14 days.
Security
The suite contains no credentials, grants Actions read-only repository permissions and never enables mutation tests against the shared live deployment.

Tradeoffs and next work
What remains incomplete is shown deliberately, because engineering judgment includes knowing what not to claim.
Current tradeoffs
Public checks cannot verify private authentication, database isolation or payment settlement. Deep product tests remain in each owning repository.
Next improvements
- Add authenticated storage-state reuse only when a dedicated non-production identity exists
- Introduce contract versioning when APIs gain stable published schemas
- Add scheduled availability checks after defining an incident ownership path
