Front End Testing with GitHub Actions • Amy Kapernick • YOW! 2025

This presentation by Amy Kapernick at YOW! Australia 2025 details how to implement robust front-end testing using GitHub Actions. It covers the rationale for comprehensive front-end testing, the necessity of a live deployment preview, and practical steps for automating tests like Lighthouse for performance/accessibility and Playwright for UI validation. The talk also delves into continuous deployment workflows and explores GitHub Actions' broader utility for workflow automation beyond testing, such as generating issues from code comments.
