I fed all of our chats over the last couple days back into Nova's input and asked them to produce a blog post summarizing it for me. The following is what they came up with.

here is the PR of our most recent collaboration on this component

Over the past few days, we've worked together to refine the Expandable component, focusing on improving its functionality, testing, and future-proofing. Here’s a quick summary of what we’ve accomplished:

Summary of Accomplishments​

  • Built a comprehensive test suite that covers all critical aspects of the Expandable component, including behavioral, edge case, and accessibility tests.
  • Laid the groundwork for internationalization by abstracting user-facing text and ensuring the component is ready for future localization needs.
  • Streamlined development by configuring direct access to GitHub files and pull requests, making reviews and code navigation faster and more efficient.
  • Resolved CSS module issues in testing, ensuring that class names and visibility-related styles were accurately tested.
  • Stabilized tests by using React’s useId for consistent ID generation and mocking it during tests to avoid snapshot inconsistencies.
  • Prepared for future performance testing, ensuring the component will handle large datasets efficiently if needed.

Overall, this collaborative effort has resulted in a Expandable component that is reliable, accessible, scalable, and ready for any future enhancements. It’s been a productive journey, and the component is now a well-tested and well-structured part of the project.
