ConsentWise Development Session Summary

Date: 12 March 2026 Duration: Full day session Repo: texashedgeem/consentwise Session: 2 of ongoing development

Context

Session 2 picked up from the Session 1 plan. PR #13 had already been merged overnight and GitHub Release v1.0.0 had been automatically created. The session focused on completing the video library, improving the site UX, and strengthening the CI/CD pipeline.

Open Banking Video Curriculum (CWPD-28 / CWPD-29)

Developed a 20-video Open Banking Mastery curriculum covering 7 stages:

Stage 1: Foundations — Stage 2: Regulation — Stage 3: Architecture
Stage 4: TPPs — Stage 5: Developer Implementation — Stage 6: Advanced — Stage 7: Future

CWPD-29 created to track sourcing the remaining ~13 videos. Full curriculum stored as a comment on CWPD-29 in Jira.

Video UX Improvements

#	Ticket	Change
1	CWPD-30	Added `rel=0` to YouTube embed URL — suppresses random end-screen recommendations
2	CWPD-31	Reduced video hero title from `6rem` to `3rem` — scoped to `.video-hero h1` only

Learn Page (CWPD-33 / CWPD-34)

Created a standalone /learn/ page as the Open Banking educational video library, separate from the Promo Videos service page:

Page	URL	Purpose
Learn	`/learn/`	Free educational video library for users to build Open Banking domain knowledge
Promo Videos	`/promo-videos/`	Commercial service — ConsentWise produces promotional videos for clients

Added Learn nav item to top navigation (primary menu and burger menu) between About Us and Services
Both pages currently share site.videos collection — will diverge as CWPD-29 progresses
Bug found and fixed: Learn nav initially pointed to /services/promo-videos/ (404) — corrected to /promo-videos/ then updated to /learn/ after the page was created

Added tests/e2e/pages/navigation.spec.js covering:

About Us, Learn, and Services nav items all link to correct URLs
Learn appears between About Us and Services (order assertion)
These tests would have caught the /services/promo-videos/ 404 bug immediately

CI Audit Trail (CWPD-35)

Significant improvement to the CI/CD pipeline:

Before	After
Triggered on PRs to `main` only	Triggers on every push to every branch
Report uploaded on failure only	Report always uploaded
`list` reporter only	`list` + `html` + JUnit XML reporters
7-day artifact retention	30-day artifact retention
No step summary	GitHub Actions step summary with pass/fail counts per run
Artifact name: `playwright-report`	Artifact name: `playwright-report-<commit-sha>`

Each commit now produces a permanent, linked test evidence record satisfying SDLC audit requirements (ISO27001/SOC1/DORA).

Technical Notes

Local dev: bundle exec jekyll serve --port 4001 --detach
Kill Jekyll: pkill -f jekyll
Run tests: npm test (Jekyll must be running on port 4001)
Test count: 14 tests across 3 spec files (navigation, promo-videos, services)
Test reports: tests/reports/html/ and tests/reports/junit/results.xml — gitignored locally, always uploaded in CI
Jira API: Must use Authorization: Basic <base64(email:token)> header — curl -u flag unreliable
GitHub approver: simonhewinszodia — second account for PR approvals
CI now triggers on: every push to every branch (changed from PRs to main only)
Artifact naming: playwright-report-<commit-sha> — permanently traceable
