Updates

• Database Seeding:

  • Proposed strategy:
  • Issue the cy.base_db_seed() before every GROUP of assertions (i.e. before() block of each .js file with group of tests)
  • This will allow us to have a known database state before starting a group of tests (which are typically authored by a single person who can handle the database state within that group of assertions)

• Question of whether we should examine export files came up. A Technical Discussion topic has been created to discuss this here: Analysis of Export Files

• Andrew Poppe mentioned that he's investigating additional resources for accelerating our work on testing
