Let’s face it-front-end changes can be deceptive. Your code compiles, your functional tests pass, and you think everything’s golden. Then you refresh the staging site and-boom-the header’s shifted two pixels, the CTA button’s off-center, or worse, a key image is broken on mobile. No errors thrown. No alarms.

How to Scale JavaScript Test Automation in CI/CD Pipelines. AI-Generated.
I remember the first time I pushed a critical bug into production. It was late. I was tired. And worse, our JavaScript tests-meant to catch exactly that kind of thing-were flaky at best.

The 2025 Accessibility Checklist for SaaS and Online Service Providers. AI-Generated.
“You don’t know what you don’t know”-until a user tells you they can’t even sign up. That was the moment things changed for me. A visually impaired user had taken the time to email our team. Not to complain, but to help. She couldn’t get past the first page of our signup flow.
