Description

As an EmbeddedChat developer

I need to:
Strengthen and expand Playwright test coverage for PR-related flows and UI interactions.

So That:
We can rely on automated tests instead of manually testing changes locally or through the UI, improving reliability and development speed.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Tests are stable, deterministic, and do not fail due to timing or flaky selectors
  • Mocking or test fixtures are used where appropriate to avoid dependency on external services
  • Tests run successfully in CI without requiring manual setup
  • Clear failure messages are provided to help debug issues quickly
  • Test execution time is optimized and does not significantly slow down CI pipelines

Research direction

The issue names no files, test suites, or entry points; start by locating the existing Playwright tests for PR-related flows and UI interactions. Compare their CI behavior and failure output against the acceptance criteria, then confirm stability, fixture or mocking coverage, CI execution, diagnostics, and runtime.
