Ticket Lifecycle Check

This skill runs a comprehensive end-to-end test suite (tests/e2e/test_tickets_full.py) to verify the Ticket Management module.

Scope

The test covers the following user flows:

1. Authentication: Logs in as an administrator.
2. Navigation: Accesses the Ticket Management dashboard.
3. Creation: Creates a new ticket with specific priority and category.
4. Verification: Confirms the ticket appears in the detail view with correct data.
5. Editing: Modifies the ticket title and status.
6. Search: Locates the modified ticket in the list view using search filters.
7. Deletion: Deletes the ticket and verifies it is removed from the list.

Prerequisites

• Frontend application running on http://localhost:3000.
• Backend API (mock or real) responding to ticket requests.
• Python 3 environment with playwright and pytest installed.

Usage

The skill automatically:

1. Checks/Activates the Python virtual environment (tests/e2e/venv).
2. Installs necessary dependencies if missing.
3. Executes the test script with verbose output.

Command

# Manual execution reference
source tests/e2e/venv/bin/activate
pytest -s tests/e2e/test_tickets_full.py

Troubleshooting

• Login Failed: Ensure the mock user admin / admin123 is valid.
• Element Not Found: The frontend UI might have changed (e.g., class names, labels). Check test_tickets_full.py for selector updates.
• Timeout: Network latency or backend slowness. Increase timeouts in expect() calls.
