Analysis / Root cause:
Playwright e2e specs that rely on the shared storageState (via warmupSPA) had no way to recover when that session became invalid mid-run — for example during long runs when the session expires, or when the destructive session-persistence.spec.ts deletes all console pods and forces plugin rollouts, restarting the console server and invalidating every active session cluster-wide. Affected specs were redirected to the OAuth "Log in with" providers page and kept reloading it until timeout. Observed in dev-console specs including import-from-git and pod-list.

A related weakness existed in the login helper itself: performLogin assumed a login form would always render, so it could time out when a context was already authenticated (the OAuth flow auto-completes and lands directly on the dashboard).

Note: the specific case of session-persistence.spec.ts failing due to a pre-loaded storageState is addressed upstream by #17121 (which gives that describe block a blank storageState). This PR is rebased on top of that change and complements it by hardening the shared auth path for the rest of the suite.

Solution description:

  • Added a re-authentication fallback inside warmupSPA: when a spec is redirected to the OAuth login page, it re-authenticates with the current Playwright project's persona (admin vs developer, derived from the project name) instead of hanging on the providers page.
  • Added a persona-aware loginFromEnv helper and routed all four callers through it: the warmupSPA re-auth fallback, the admin-auth/developer-auth setup projects, and session-persistence.spec.ts. Storage-state paths are now exported from login-helper.ts as the single source of truth.
  • Made performLogin idempotent: it returns early when the context is already authenticated (detecting the user menu) instead of assuming a login form will render.
  • The identity provider link is now selected by substring match (matching the previous Cypress login behavior) and the helper waits for the username field before filling credentials.
  • Refactored session-persistence.spec.ts to use loginFromEnv, and fixed it to always authenticate as the admin persona (these are @admin tests) rather than logging in as developer when htpasswd credentials happen to be configured.

Screenshots / screen recording:

Test setup:

  1. Run the Playwright e2e suite against a cluster: cd frontend && yarn test:e2e.
  2. Verify dev-console specs no longer hang on the OAuth providers page after the console server restarts, and that session-persistence.spec.ts logs in as the admin user.

Analysis / Root cause:
Multiple Playwright e2e tests were failing due to two weaknesses in the shared authentication path:

  1. frontend/e2e/setup/login-helper.tsperformLogin assumed a login form would always render. Tests running in projects that already apply an authenticated storageState (for example the console project's session-persistence.spec.ts) navigate through OAuth, which auto-completes and lands directly on the dashboard. performLogin then timed out waiting for a login form that never appears, even though the user was already logged in.
  2. frontend/e2e/pages/base-page.ts — tests relying on the shared storageState (via warmupSPA) had no way to recover when that session became invalid mid-run (session expiry during long runs, or the destructive session-persistence.spec.ts deleting all console pods and forcing plugin rollouts). Affected tests were redirected to the OAuth "Log in with" providers page and kept reloading it until timeout. Observed in dev-console specs including import-from-git and pod-list.

Solution description:

  • performLogin now returns early when the context is already authenticated, detecting the user menu instead of assuming a login form will render.
  • Added a persona-aware loginFromEnv helper and used it as a re-authentication fallback inside warmupSPA when the page is redirected to the OAuth login page. Persona (admin vs developer) is derived from the Playwright project name so specs re-authenticate as the correct user.

Walkthrough

The E2E authentication helpers now support admin and developer personas, reuse authenticated sessions, and recover from OAuth or login redirects. Session-persistence tests use shared admin authentication. The active namespace is stored per browser tab before state publication.

Changes

E2E authentication and session handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared persona login flow
frontend/e2e/setup/login-helper.ts, frontend/e2e/pages/base-page.ts
Shared storage paths were added. performLogin now detects existing sessions and login states. loginFromEnv selects admin or developer credentials and providers. warmupSPA retries navigation after authentication redirects.
Authentication setup and session-persistence coverage
frontend/e2e/setup/admin-auth.setup.ts, frontend/e2e/setup/developer-auth.setup.ts, frontend/e2e/tests/console/session-persistence.spec.ts, frontend/playwright.config.ts
Setup files use shared persona login and storage paths. Session-persistence tests require kubeadmin credentials, use admin authentication, and use relative console routes. Playwright documents the storage-path synchronization constraint.

Namespace session persistence

Layer / File(s) Summary
Synchronous active namespace storage
frontend/packages/console-app/src/providers/detect-context/namespace.ts, frontend/packages/console-app/src/providers/detect-context/__tests__/namespace.spec.ts
The active namespace is written to tab-scoped session storage before state publication. Tests cover the transition from all namespaces to a named namespace and clear storage during cleanup.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description provides a clear root cause, detailed solution, test setup, browser coverage, and Jira reference. The Screenshots section is appropriately left without media because the changes are not visual. The Test cases and Reviewers and assignees sections are not explicitly completed, but the description is otherwise sufficiently complete and relevant.

Full details: Stable And Deterministic Test Names

Explanation

No unstable test name was introduced. The PR changes TypeScript Playwright/Jest tests and setup files; they contain no Ginkgo usage. All inspected suite, test, setup, and step titles are static literals. They use generic phrases such as “console pod deletion” and “named namespace,” not runtime pod, namespace, node, timestamp, IP, UUID, or generated identifier values. The added namespace regression title references the fixed symbolic name ALL_NAMESPACES_KEY and does not include a runtime value.

Full details: Test Structure And Quality

Explanation

PASS — the custom check is not applicable. The pull-request changes are frontend TypeScript and configuration files. The changed test uses Playwright (test.describe/test), and the namespace regression test uses Jest. The pull-request diff contains no Go files or Ginkgo tests, so the specified Ginkgo requirements do not identify a failure.

Full details: Microshift Test Compatibility

Explanation

PASS — The pull request does not add Ginkgo e2e tests. The exact PR diff changes only frontend TypeScript/configuration files, and the added-marker search found no Go It, Describe, Context, or When declarations. The later namespace regression test is a Jest test (describe/it), not a Ginkgo e2e test, so the MicroShift API compatibility check is not applicable.

Full details: Single Node Openshift (Sno) Test Compatibility

Explanation

PASS: The custom check applies only to new Ginkgo e2e tests. The PR diff contains no changed Go files and no Ginkgo declarations. The changed tests are Playwright and Jest tests. The Playwright session-persistence test deletes console pods but does not require distinct nodes, and multiple pods on one SNO node are explicitly allowed by the check.

Full details: Topology-Aware Scheduling Compatibility

Explanation

PASS: The pull request changes only Playwright E2E authentication/setup, Playwright configuration, and namespace session-storage logic. The committed PR diff contains no deployment manifests, operator code, controllers, or scheduling constraints. The only deployment-related reference is an unchanged test target that waits for the existing console Deployment; it does not modify its scheduling.

Full details: Ote Binary Stdout Contract

Explanation

PASS: The pull-request diff contains no changed Go files and no OTE binary or suite setup code. The changed authentication and namespace code is TypeScript/React Playwright code. Added output calls are frontend console calls, not process-level OTE stdout writes. Changed shell scripts are CI entrypoints; their validation errors use stderr, and they do not implement an OTE binary. The existing Go process entry points under cmd/pkg are unchanged.

Full details: Ipv6 And Disconnected Network Test Compatibility

Explanation

PASS — the pull request adds no Ginkgo e2e tests and changes no Go test files. The added tests are Jest unit tests and existing Playwright tests. The changed test code uses the configured console URL and cluster Kubernetes APIs, with no hardcoded IPv4 address, IPv4-only parsing, public hostname, registry pull, or external URL request.

Full details: No-Weak-Crypto

Explanation

PASS. The pull-request diff adds login/session handling and namespace session-storage updates only. The introduced code contains no MD5, SHA1, DES, RC4, 3DES, Blowfish, or ECB usage, no cryptographic API calls, and no custom cryptographic implementation. Credential checks only test whether environment values are present; they do not compare secrets or tokens.

Full details: Container-Privileges

Explanation

No custom-check failure was introduced. The merge-base diff adds no privileged: true, hostPID, hostNetwork, hostIPC, SYS_ADMIN, allowPrivilegeEscalation: true, or root-user setting. The only changed declarative files are JSON locale/package files, not container or Kubernetes manifests. An existing privileged node-debug pod definition in NodeTerminal.tsx is identical to the merge-base version; this pull request only removes an eslint suppression there.

Full details: No-Sensitive-Data-In-Logs

Explanation

No sensitive-data logging was introduced. The PR adds no new console.*, logger, trace, or diagnostic output that includes credentials, tokens, URLs, or user data. New password and username values are passed to Playwright form fields only. The console.warn('Error fetching namespace', e) line is unchanged from the namespace file's parent revision, so it is pre-existing and not PR-caused.

Not removing admin-auth/developer-auth?

…ecovery

Playwright e2e tests were failing in two ways: tests in projects that
already load an authenticated storageState timed out waiting for a login
form that never appears, and tests relying on the shared session hung on
the OAuth providers page when that session was lost mid-run with no way
to re-authenticate.

- performLogin now returns early when the context is already
  authenticated, detecting the user menu instead of assuming a login
  form will render.
- Add a persona-aware loginFromEnv helper and use it as a
  re-authentication fallback in warmupSPA when the page is redirected to
  the OAuth login page. Persona is derived from the Playwright project
  name so admin and developer specs re-auth as the correct user.
- Select the identity provider link by substring match and wait for the
  username field before filling credentials, matching the previous
  Cypress login behavior.

Add a side effect in namespace context detection to persist the active namespace under `LAST_NAMESPACE_NAME_LOCAL_STORAGE_KEY` in `sessionStorage` (trimmed and tab-scoped). This makes the current namespace available to components that render outside `NamespaceContext`.

…upSPA

The OAuth re-authentication fallback lived in warmupSPA, so it only ran
at the start of the ~26 specs that call it. A session lost mid-test (for
example when a console rollout triggered by another spec invalidates the
shared storageState) bounced the in-flight navigation to the login page
with no recovery, so the next assertion raced the re-auth and failed.

Move the self-heal onto the built-in `page` fixture: wrap page.goto so
that any navigation redirected to the OAuth/login page re-authenticates
the current persona and retries the original target, transparently to
the caller. A re-entrancy flag prevents recursion from loginFromEnv's
own internal navigations. warmupSPA keeps its behavior through the
guarded goto and no longer duplicates the recovery logic.

Scheduling tests matching the pipeline_run_if_changed or not excluded by pipeline_skip_if_only_changed parameters:
/test e2e-cypress
/test e2e-gcp-console
/test e2e-gcp-console-techpreview

The first pass checked page.url() immediately after goto resolved, but
the console redirects to the OAuth login page client-side, a beat after
domcontentloaded. So the guard saw the console path rather than the
OAuth URL and never re-authenticated, leaving specs to time out waiting
for #page-sidebar while stranded on the OAuth page.

Wait for auth to settle before deciding: race the `co-auth-pending`
class dropping off <html> (which app.tsx removes once its authenticated
bootstrap fetch succeeds) against an OAuth redirect. This observes the
client-side redirect the point-in-time URL check missed and short-
circuits instantly on the happy path.

Add a `no-auto-reauth` annotation opt-out and apply it to the session
persistence spec, whose assertions would otherwise be masked by
transparent recovery.

Going to keep this change since knowing all of the failures is insightful when making large changes + there is not much time penalty at the moment to having it

Analysis / Root cause:
Playwright e2e specs that rely on the shared storageState (via warmupSPA) had no way to recover when that session became invalid mid-run — for example during long runs when the session expires, or when the destructive session-persistence.spec.ts deletes all console pods and forces plugin rollouts, restarting the console server and invalidating every active session cluster-wide. Affected specs were redirected to the OAuth "Log in with" providers page and kept reloading it until timeout. Observed in dev-console specs including import-from-git and pod-list.

A related weakness existed in the login helper itself: performLogin assumed a login form would always render, so it could time out when a context was already authenticated (the OAuth flow auto-completes and lands directly on the dashboard).

Note: the specific case of session-persistence.spec.ts failing due to a pre-loaded storageState is addressed upstream by #17121 (which gives that describe block a blank storageState). This PR is rebased on top of that change and complements it by hardening the shared auth path for the rest of the suite.

Solution description:

  • Added a re-authentication fallback inside warmupSPA: when a spec is redirected to the OAuth login page, it re-authenticates with the current Playwright project's persona (admin vs developer, derived from the project name) instead of hanging on the providers page.
  • Added a persona-aware loginFromEnv helper and routed all four callers through it: the warmupSPA re-auth fallback, the admin-auth/developer-auth setup projects, and session-persistence.spec.ts. Storage-state paths are now exported from login-helper.ts as the single source of truth.
  • Made performLogin idempotent: it returns early when the context is already authenticated (detecting the user menu) instead of assuming a login form will render.
  • The identity provider link is now selected by substring match (matching the previous Cypress login behavior) and the helper waits for the username field before filling credentials.
  • Refactored session-persistence.spec.ts to use loginFromEnv, and fixed it to always authenticate as the admin persona (these are @admin tests) rather than logging in as developer when htpasswd credentials happen to be configured.

Screenshots / screen recording:

Test setup:

  1. Run the Playwright e2e suite against a cluster: cd frontend && yarn test:e2e.
  2. Verify dev-console specs no longer hang on the OAuth providers page after the console server restarts, and that session-persistence.spec.ts logs in as the admin user.
