#465 The passkey browser test sometimes misses the sign-in button

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: athanclark

test/passkeys-live-postgres.mjs failed once in CI and passed when re-run, on PR [#464], whose changes don't touch sign-in.

Where: the job "PostgreSQL 16 / native pgmp / accounts and sharing" (run).

What failed: after signing out, the test opens /login and waits for the Sign in with a passkey button, which never appeared within 30 seconds:

locator.waitFor: Timeout 30000ms exceeded.

  - waiting for getByRole('button', { name: 'Sign in with a passkey' }) to be visible
    at test/passkeys-live-postgres.mjs:212:16

That's the step "Signing in with the passkey alone, from the button", which comes after the two-factor step and signOut().

To find out: why the login page sometimes doesn't show the button. It could be the session still being read as signed in, the passkey autofill request from the previous step still pending, or the page loading before sign-out has taken effect. Then make the test, or the page, reliable.

It happened again, on PR [#491], whose changes don't touch sign-in (run). This time it failed at a different step, test/passkeys-live-postgres.mjs:284:

page.waitForResponse: Timeout 30000ms exceeded while waiting for event "response"

That step signs out, opens /login with the authenticator refusing, and waits for the autofill's POST /api/auth/passkeys/sign-in to be refused (401). The request never came.

Both failures have the same shape:

• The steps: each signs out, opens /login, and then the sign-in form never reaches its ready state. The first time the Sign in with a passkey button didn't show; this time the autofill request wasn't sent.
• What both need: the page's own GET /api/session to answer, with mode login and passkeySignIn.

Two possibilities fit, either of which would point at the session read rather than at passkeys:

• that read fails or hangs, and the card shows an error or keeps loading;
• the page lands in another step.

PR [#496] makes the test print the card's text and the session when the button doesn't appear. This second step should print the same when it times out; I'll add that.
