Description

- document 3-4 cases of regressions that could have been prevented by automated migration e2e tests
- explain why they would not have been caught by existing tests
- describe, in written form, the tests that would have prevented the regression: the assertions needed, the flows to automate, the fixtures needed
- propose a general system or set of guidelines

Output should be roughly 1-2 google docs pages of content. Can be done within github comments

Research direction

Start by identifying 3-4 migration or version regressions that automated end-to-end tests could have prevented, then compare them with the existing tests. Document the necessary assertions, automated flows, fixtures, and a general testing system or guidelines in roughly 1-2 pages, either in Google Docs or a GitHub comment.
