Routine checks are built into the existing operations for the platform and include:
- Visual diffs. Short for visual difference. This is a software testing system that ensures the platform's user interface (UI) looks and functions as planned.
- Playwright actions. Playwright is an automated testing tool. Playwright actions test HTML input elements like text inputs, checkboxes, and selects, to make sure they are working correctly.
- Security scans. Security scans find security issues during the software development process. Early identification means no security problems are introduced into the codebase. We use one of the world's most popular security scanning tools.
- Accessibility checks. Automated accessibility checks review headings, links, color contrast, and more. If any new code falls below our current standard score, we fix it. The DX platform sites are accessible to WCAG 2.1 Level A/AA, WAI-ARIA 1.2, and ATAG 2.0.
These routine checks help keep the codebase up to date with best practices.
We continue to fine-tune and monitor existing testing.
