Rewrite the dashboard spec to assert the admin fixture's known state directly instead of guarding every check behind isVisible(), which let regressions pass green. Fix the desktop profile-menu target by giving the icon-only trigger an accessible name. Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Adjusts glasses, sighs.
The PR description promises "12 test cases" and "405 lines with comprehensive JSDoc documentation". The diff contains 7 tests in 137 lines. If the summary can't be trusted about the contents of its own diff, forgive me for being skeptical about the rest.
On the actual code: it's not bad. Role-based selectors, test.step grouping, no CSS soup, and the aria-label on the icon-only dropdown trigger is a genuine (if unmentioned) accessibility fix. Credit where it's due.
But the tests are coupled to fixture data and viewport in ways nobody documented:
- Half of them assume the fixture user is a superuser with facilities and a govt org. When the fixture drifts, these fail with cryptic locator timeouts, not useful messages.
- The profile-menu test only exists on desktop —
isMobilerenders plain buttons instead of a dropdown. - The unscoped weekday regex is a strict-mode violation waiting for the first facility named "Sunday Clinic".
- The ARIA test asserts attributes are non-empty rather than correct, which conveniently misses that the component wires
aria-labelledbyto the panel's own id instead of the tab's.
Also: the tablist keeps a hardcoded English aria-label="Dashboard Sections" while the same diff adds t("more_options") two elements away. Pick a lane.
None of this is merge-blocking, but flaky E2E tests are worse than no E2E tests — they train people to ignore red builds. Tighten the assumptions before this lands.

An unscoped getByText(/Monday|Tuesday|.../) across the whole page. Any facility, org, or future widget containing the substring "Sunday" makes this a strict-mode violation, and it silently passes even if the greeting date block vanishes. Scope it to the date paragraph and assert the actual formatted date.

Fine, an aria-label on an icon-only button. Miraculously correct. Shame it is bolted onto a tablist twelve lines below that still hardcodes aria-label="Dashboard Sections" in English while everything else goes through t() — and the tests now depend on that untranslated string. If you are fixing a11y here, fix it consistently.

This test only exists on desktop: isMobile renders two plain buttons instead of the dropdown, so on any mobile project in the Playwright config this fails outright rather than skipping. Either pin a viewport or branch on it — do not just hope the default project stays wide.

getByRole("tabpanel").getByRole("link").first() assumes the first available tab is Facilities. availableTabs is data-driven: if the fixture user loses facilities but keeps responsibilities, this happily clicks an org card and the href assertion fails with a useless message. Click the Facilities tab explicitly first.

Asserting aria-controls matches /.+/ and then never checking it points at the visible panel is testing that a string exists. Meanwhile the component gives the tabpanel aria-labelledby={tabId} — the panel's own id, not the tab's — which is broken ARIA this test cheerfully fails to catch. Assert the panel's id equals the tab's aria-controls.

Pull request overview
Adds Playwright E2E coverage for the authenticated User Dashboard landing page (/) and improves accessibility of the dashboard profile/menu trigger by giving it an accessible name.
Changes:
- Adds a new Playwright spec that exercises core dashboard behaviors: greeting/date, admin link, profile menu, tabs, and facility navigation.
- Improves accessibility of the “more options” (ellipsis) button by adding an
aria-labelsourced from i18n (t("more_options")).
