Testing – kickstart-next-ssr

When to use

  • You need a minimal quality gate before a PR
  • You are validating Live Preview or Contentstack connectivity manually
  • You want to add automated tests later (planning only—this skill does not add dependencies)

Instructions

Current state

  • package.json has no test script and no Jest, Vitest, or Playwright dependency.
  • There is no __tests__ directory or *.test.ts(x) convention in the repo today.

Recommended local checks before merge

  1. npm run lint — catches ESLint issues (next lint).
  2. npm run build — ensures the Next.js production build succeeds (catches many TypeScript and bundling errors).

Manual / functional checks

  • With a seeded stack and valid .env, run npm run dev and load the home route.
  • For Live Preview: enable preview in Contentstack, use the preview URL with query parameters, and confirm content updates and editable regions behave as expected (see README.md and skills/contentstack-kickstart/SKILL.md).

Future automation (optional)

If the team adds a runner (e.g. Vitest for units, Playwright for e2e), update this skill with commands, file layout, and CI steps. Do not document tools until they exist in package.json.
