Common Mistakes

Responsiveness

For all below check the following breakpoints for Vue apps

Devices	Code	Screen sizes
Extra Small	xs	< 600px
Small	sm	600px > < 960px
Medium	md	960px > < 1264px
Large	lg	1264px > < 1904px
Extra Large	xl	> 1904px

• Check for bad word breaks within each breakpoint.
• Check to see if components are misaligned or have bad spacing, padding, or margin.
• Check to see if components overflow to either side of the viewport.
• Check if there are any weird visual glitches at different breakpoints.

Other items to look out for

• Make sure new API calls use the correct HTTP verb and when working with JSON make sure it is validated.
• With GETs, make sure that text/html return type is avoided and application/json is used when dealing with json data.
• Avoid transmission of confidential data in URL parameters and unnecessary parameters.
• Make sure all API calls are within a try catch block with appropriate error handling.
• If dealing with forms, make sure the form has input validation.
• Avoid logging confidential information.
• Make sure no-cache is on confidential web pages.
• Make sure rel="noopener noreferrer" is on any link that opens to a new tab.
• For browser performance, use .webp images instead of .png, .jpg, .jpeg, etc.

• Make sure new pages / paths within router.js are added to the links.js test suite.
• Add a new test case within downloads.js if you're adding the first download button to any page.
• Reuse existing custom commands if they serve the purpose of your test.
• Create a new custom command for any duplicate code / test that can be globally reused.
• Create a local function for duplicate code that can be reused within your test spec.
