Phase 1 Test Failures Remediation Plan
Date: January 22, 2026 Status: Ready for Implementation Total Failures: 11 Estimated Effort: 1-2 hours
Executive Summary
This plan addresses 11 specific test failures observed after implementing Phase 1 changes. The failures fall into 4 categories:
| File | Failures | Root Cause | Fix Complexity |
|---|---|---|---|
tests/monitoring/real-time-logs.spec.ts |
5 | WebSocket/filtering selector mismatches | Medium |
tests/security/security-dashboard.spec.ts |
4 | Element intercepts pointer events | Low |
tests/settings/account-settings.spec.ts |
1 | Keyboard navigation timing | Low |
tests/settings/user-management.spec.ts |
1 | Strict mode violation | Low |
1. Real-Time Logs Failures (5 tests)
1.1 Root Cause Analysis
The real-time-logs.spec.ts file has hardcoded selectors that don't match the actual component implementation:
Problem 1: Level Select Selector Mismatch
The test uses:
const SELECTORS = {
levelSelect: 'select:has(option:text("All Levels"))',
sourceSelect: 'select:has(option:text("All Sources"))',
};
The actual component likely uses different option text (e.g., "All", "INFO", "WARN", "ERROR") or uses a custom select component (Radix UI Select) instead of native <select>.
Problem 2: Connection Status Class Assertion
The test asserts:
await expect(statusBadge).toHaveClass(/bg-green/);
await expect(statusBadge).toHaveClass(/bg-red/);
The actual component may use different Tailwind classes (e.g., text-green-400, bg-green-500/20, or semantic classes).
Problem 3: Mode Toggle Button Active State
The test checks:
await expect(securityButton).toHaveClass(/bg-blue-600/);
The actual implementation may use data-state="active" or different styling.

2. Security Dashboard Failures (4 tests)
2.1 Root Cause Analysis
Problem: "Element intercepts pointer events" error occurs when clicking on configure buttons or toggle switches.
This typically happens when:
- An overlay or tooltip is covering the element
- A parent element has pointer-events that block the child
- The element is being obscured by a loading indicator or modal
Affected Tests:
should navigate to CrowdSec page when configure clicked- Line 202should navigate to Access Lists page when clicked- Line 222should navigate to WAF page when configure clicked- Line 248should navigate to Rate Limiting page when configure clicked- Line 268
2.2 Implementation Fixes
File: tests/security/security-dashboard.spec.ts
Fix: Add Force Click and Wait for Overlays (Lines 202-290)
test('should navigate to CrowdSec page when configure clicked', async ({ page }) => {
// Find the CrowdSec card by locating the configure button within a container that has CrowdSec text

3. Account Settings Failure (1 test)
3.1 Root Cause Analysis
Problem: Keyboard navigation test fails with timeout finding specific elements.
Test: should be keyboard navigable - Line 618
The test uses a loop with insufficient iterations and no waits between Tab presses, causing race conditions in focus detection.
3.2 Implementation Fix
File: tests/settings/account-settings.spec.ts
Fix: Increase Loop Counts and Add Waits (Lines 618-680)
test('should be keyboard navigable', async ({ page }) => {
await test.step('Tab through profile section', async () => {
// Start from first focusable element
await page.keyboard.press('Tab');

4. User Management Failure (1 test)
4.1 Root Cause Analysis
Problem: Strict mode violation - locator resolves to multiple elements.
Test: should be keyboard navigable - Line 1002
The test uses .first() in some places but not consistently, causing Playwright's strict mode to fail when multiple matching elements exist.
4.2 Implementation Fix

Fix: Add .first() and Improve Locator Specificity (Lines 1002-1070)
