Test Quality Definition of Done

• No hard waits (waitForTimeout, cy.wait(ms)); rely on deterministic waits or event hooks.
• Each spec <300 lines and executes in ≤1.5 minutes.
• Tests are isolated, parallel-safe, and self-cleaning (seed via API/tasks, teardown after run).
• Assertions stay visible in test bodies; avoid conditional logic controlling test flow.
• Suites must pass locally and in CI with the same commands.
• Promote new tests only after they have failed for the intended reason at least once.
