## Test Cases

```
WebSocket CORS Validation
├── should establish WebSocket connection with CORS headers
├── should authenticate via WebSocket after connection
├── should handle WebSocket reconnection gracefully
├── should include proper CORS headers in WebSocket upgrade request
└── should not expose sensitive data in WebSocket logs
```

---

## Run Tests

```bash
cd frontend/apps/web
bun run test:e2e -- websocket-validation.spec.ts
```

## Reports Generated

```
playwright-report/
├── index.html              # Interactive HTML report
├── results.json            # Playwright JSON results
├── junit.xml               # JUnit format (CI/CD)
└── failed-routes.json      # Custom failed routes report

## Log Collection

### Console Logs
```typescript
const logs = await collectBrowserLogs(page);
// Returns: { console: [...], errors: [...], warnings: [...] }
```

### Network Logs
```typescript
const networkLogs = await collectNetworkLogs(page);
// Returns: [{ url, status, method, headers, timing }, ...]
```

## Custom Reporter Output

**Console Summary:**
```
📊 Failed Routes Report written to: playwright-report/failed-routes.json
📈 Test Summary:
  Total Tests: 5
  Passed: 5
  Failed: 0
  Skipped: 0
  Timed Out: 0
  Total Duration: 9.60s
✅ All routes passed!
```

**JSON Output:**
```json
{
  "timestamp": "2026-02-05T15:15:00.000Z",
  "wallClock": 9600,
  "totalDuration": 9600,
  "summary": {
    "total": 5,
    "passed": 5,
    "failed": 0,
    "skipped": 0,
    "timedout": 0
  },
  "failedRoutes": [],
  "details": [...]
}
```

## Test User Context

Available in `process.env` during tests:
```
TEST_USER_EMAIL = 'kooshapari@kooshapari.com'
TEST_USER_PASSWORD = 'testAdmin123'
TEST_USER_FIRST_NAME = 'Test'
TEST_USER_LAST_NAME = 'Admin'
```

Override via environment:
```bash
TEST_USER_EMAIL=custom@test.com bun run test:e2e
```

## Integration Points

### Validates
- WebSocket CORS headers (Access-Control-Allow-Origin, Access-Control-Allow-Credentials)
- WebSocket authentication flow
- Secure message-based authentication (not URL-based)
- Sensitive data not leaked in logs
- Proper error handling and reconnection

### Provides Foundation For
- Phase 2, Task 3: Route validation tests
- Phase 3, Task 4: Vitest API tests
- Phase 4, Task 5: Go backend tests
- Phase 5, Task 6: Pytest backend tests

## Key Features

✓ **Console Capture** - Full browser console logging with timestamps
✓ **Network Monitoring** - CORS headers and WebSocket upgrade tracking
✓ **Error Detection** - Uncaught exceptions captured with stack traces
✓ **Security Validation** - Sensitive data pattern detection
✓ **Custom Reporting** - JSON export and console summaries
✓ **CI/CD Ready** - JUnit, JSON, and HTML output formats
✓ **Test User Context** - Persistent credentials for all test suites

## Troubleshooting

**Tests fail with WebSocket timeout:**
- Check that frontend dev server is running on port 5173
- Check that WebSocket endpoint is configured in Caddyfile.dev
- Review browser console logs in Playwright report

**Custom reporter not generating JSON:**
- Verify `require.resolve('./e2e/reporters/failed-routes-reporter.ts')` in playwright.config.ts
- Check that playwright-report directory has write permissions
- Look for errors in test runner console output

**Test user context not available:**
- Verify global-setup.ts is loaded (set in playwright.config.ts)
- Check that process.env is accessed correctly in tests
- Ensure TEST_USER_* variables are set by global setup
