Interviewer: do you have an example of projects you spent too much effort on?
Me: I suppose the work on Mambo 1 to 4 was a bit of a waste... --Chris Heilmann
Wrote my first UI Tests using Playwright as a pytest plugin, because the UI I'm currently working on is quite javascript heavy. Overall it was a good experience. But it's hard to get the test browser to behave like the real one:
- Drag and drop just looks different (I have no idea why).
- Clicking on a link in the test browser results in href navigation, while clicking on the link in the real browser triggers hx-get
One of the projects I worked on last year went live: Plastic IQ tool launched in Brazil and Indonesia (link goes to Linkedin).
