Phase 18: Integration Validation

phase-wkq-18-integration-validation Phase

phase
Goal: E2E tests, Prometheus app metrics, Blackbox synthetic probes, Grafana alerts. Close the DORA observability loop.
Owner: Dev agent + Betty Sue (platform wiring)
Repo: forgejo_admin/westside-app, forgejo_admin/basketball-api, forgejo_admin/pal-e-platform
Depends on: phase-wkq-15-production-port

Scope

  • E2E test suite: Playwright tests covering all routes. Runs against real basketball-api (not mocks). Added as CI step in .woodpecker.yaml.
  • Prometheus app metrics: Replace stub /metrics with real metrics — request count, latency histogram, error rate. Use prometheus-fastapi-instrumentator.
  • Blackbox synthetic probes: Blackbox Exporter probes for westside-app routes (/, /register, authenticated endpoint). 60s interval.
  • Grafana alerts + DORA wiring: Pod restart > 0, Blackbox failure, error rate > 5%. Wire into DORA dashboard CFR panel.

DORA Mapping

  • Change Failure Rate: E2E tests prevent broken merges
  • Mean Time to Recovery: Synthetic probes + alerts detect failures in <60s

Deliverables

  • Playwright E2E tests in CI pipeline
  • Real Prometheus metrics on basketball-api
  • Blackbox probes for all public endpoints
  • Grafana alert rules + DORA dashboard integration
