- Created a comprehensive QA Definition of Done (DoD) Verification Report detailing the status of E2E tests, coverage, type safety, pre-commit hooks, linting, and security scans. - Documented findings on React rendering issues, test execution times, and recommendations for CI scheduling. - Updated the Vulnerability Assessment Phase 2 report with detailed CVE findings, risk assessments, and remediation plans for identified vulnerabilities in dependencies.

Phase 4 UAT - E2E Critical Blocker Resolution Guide
Status: 🔴 CRITICAL BLOCKER Date: February 10, 2026 Next Action: FIX FRONTEND RENDERING
Summary
All 111 Phase 4 E2E tests failed because the React frontend is not rendering the main UI element within the 5-second timeout.
TimeoutError: page.waitForSelector: Timeout 5000ms exceeded.
Call log:
- waiting for locator('[role="main"]') to be visible
35 tests failed immediately when trying to find [role="main"] in the DOM.
74 tests never ran due to the issue.
Release is blocked until this is fixed.
Root Cause
The React application is not initializing properly:
✅ Working:
- Docker container is healthy
- Backend API is responding (
/api/v1/health) - HTML page loads (includes script/CSS references)
- Port 8080 is accessible
❌ Broken:
- JavaScript bundle not executing
- React root element (
#root) not being used [role="main"]component never created- Application initialization fails/times out
Quick Fixes to Try (in order)
Option 1: Clean Rebuild (Most Likely to Work)
# Navigate to project
cd /projects/Charon
# Clean rebuild of E2E environment
.github/skills/scripts/skill-runner.sh docker-rebuild-e2e
# Run a single test to verify
npx playwright test tests/auth.setup.ts --project=firefox
Option 2: Check Frontend Build
# Verify frontend was built during Docker build
docker exec charon-e2e ls -lah /app/dist/
# Check if dist directory has content
docker exec charon-e2e find /app/dist -type f | head -20
Option 3: Debug with Browser Console
# Run test in debug mode to see errors
npx playwright test tests/phase4-integration/01-admin-user-e2e-workflow.spec.ts --project=firefox --debug
# Open browser inspector to check console errors
Option 4: Check Environment Variables
# Verify frontend environment in container
docker exec charon-e2e env | grep -i "VITE\|REACT\|API"
# Check if API endpoint is configured correctly
docker exec charon-e2e cat /app/dist/index.html | grep "src="
Testing After Fix
Step 1: Rebuild
.github/skills/scripts/skill-runner.sh docker-rebuild-e2e
Step 2: Verify Container is Healthy
# Check container status
docker ps | grep charon-e2e
# Test health endpoint
curl -s http://localhost:8080/api/v1/health
Step 3: Run Single Test
# Quick test to verify frontend is now rendering
npx playwright test tests/auth.setup.ts --project=firefox
Step 4: Run Full Suite
# If single test passes, run full Phase 4 suite
npx playwright test tests/phase4-uat/ tests/phase4-integration/ --project=firefox
# Expected result: 111 tests passing
What Happens After Fix
Once frontend rendering is fixed and E2E tests pass:
- ✅ Verify E2E tests: 111/111 passing
- ✅ Run Backend Coverage (≥85% required)
- ✅ Run Frontend Coverage (≥87% required)
- ✅ Type Check:
npm run type-check - ✅ Pre-commit Hooks:
pre-commit run --all-files - ✅ Security Scans: Trivy + Docker Image + CodeQL
- ✅ Linting: Go + Frontend + Markdown
- ✅ Generate Final QA Report
- ✅ Release Ready

Prevention for Future
- Add frontend health check to E2E setup
- Add console error detection to test framework
- Add JavaScript bundle verification step
- Monitor React initialization timing
