Experience notes
“Week two’s selector clinic finally stopped my tests from clicking the wrong drawer. The Cypress Foundations for Web QA module naming matched our sprint board, which made demos less awkward.”
“Mentor notes on my flaky login chain were blunt in a useful way — still wish the network chapter arrived earlier.”
