Squash of experiment/ff-big-modules vs main.
Big-module routing removed: native-EH shrank kicad_editor below
SpiderMonkey's x86-64 code budget (runs 29355049705/29356152413 green on
stock Firefox), so BIG_MODULE_SPECS routing and the baseline-only-JIT
crutch are gone — kicad-firefox and kicad-chromium both run the full
suite, with the module compiled the way real users' browsers compile it.
Per-engine screenshots end to end: stableShot/shotPath write
test-results/<engine>/<name>.png; baselines move to
baseline-screenshots/{chromium,firefox}/ and the whole tools/screenshots
pipeline (compare/promote/manifest/spec-map/changelog/Discord) keys on
<engine>/<name>. Previously Firefox and Chromium renders of one spec
overwrote each other and Firefox renders were never actually gated.
Seeded from CI run 29421380806 (92 new firefox baselines, +24 chromium
web-suite shots); manifest generated from the baseline tree.
One merged playwright.config.ts (kicad/asyncify/coroutine/perf as
projects); ~25 dead npm scripts dropped. The web suite is gated in CI for
the first time ever (4 rotted specs fixed, 5 broken lib-bridge specs
triaged as fixme in docs/features/web-e2e-rot/); cheap lint step after
npm ci; last 26 blind-sleep violations fixed.
SwiftShader retired: CI Chromium renders WebGL on ANGLE → Mesa llvmpipe
(--use-gl=angle --use-angle=gl --ignore-gpu-blocklist; the blocklist flag
is mandatory — llvmpipe is blocklisted and WebGL is silently unavailable
without it) in BOTH configs. Under WORKERS=4 congestion SwiftShader
transiently failed the first post-board-load draw and the recovery
cascade ended in a silent permanent Cairo fallback — that engine flip was
the "~1.2% changedRatio both directions" occ-export baseline flake.
Validated 160/160 across two 80-repeat rigs; full analysis in
docs/features/wx-parity-bugs/occ-export-context-eviction.md. Chromium
baselines shift slightly on llvmpipe — promote once from the first green
run. Deflakes the new coverage exposed: presence baselines settle before
capture; presence fixtures declare current file formats; perf gets its
own outputDir so CI evidence survives; occ-export settles the board paint
before the export dialog; menu-item waits (waitForRenderedByLabel before
clickMenuItem) in 4 specs + the TESTING.md rule.
Web suite runs the PROD build, in parallel: webServer becomes backend
`start` + the standalone's e2e:preview (build-preview.mjs: link-wasm →
stash the public/wasm symlink aside during vite build, build-demo.mjs's
move — then vite preview as the persistent server). The wasm middleware
serves /wasm/* in preview and emits COOP/COEP/CORP itself (a pthread
worker script's own response must carry COEP or Chrome kills it with
ERR_BLOCKED_BY_RESPONSE). VITE_* flags bake at build time;
VITE_ALLOW_USER_OVERRIDE joins turbo globalEnv. fullyParallel + default
workers: 5.2m → 1.4m. Determinism fixes the parallel run exposed:
shared-page specs become serial groups; locks.spec grabs alice's exact
item via the new kicadCollabTestSelectByUuid hook (cross-tab "first
footprint" order is not a ysync invariant); quit specs poll page.url()
(quit supersedes its own navigation — NS_BINDING_ABORTED on Firefox).
Suite: 51 passed / 12 skipped / 0 failed in 1.6m.
CI-coverage gate (lint:ci-coverage): every tests/**/*.spec.ts must be
reachable from the npm scripts the workflows invoke — scraped from
.github/workflows/, resolved through package.json, coverage asked from
playwright --list itself. Rules: uncovered-spec + orphan-project (with a
documented LOCAL_ONLY_PROJECTS allowlist). Gating next to
lint:determinism; 138 spec files / 13 projects accounted for.
Product fixes kept from the investigations (reachable on real GPUs too):
wx 7799fd1be5 — paint flags clear before dispatch + Invalidate always
propagates; kicad 3dcfea5e45 — SwiftShader pass-boundary flush +
per-instance font texture + first-frame GL-error drain (GAL recovery
recovers instead of falling back to Cairo) + the user-facing eeschema
switch navigates again under __EMSCRIPTEN__ (project-sync's
FaceRegistered gate had rerouted it into the hidden sync player; caught
by the newly-gated web suite).

The goal is to build kicad with wasm and run it in a browser
|
|
README.md details how to run the project
|
|
|
|
A lot of native module have to be compiled to wasm, the most complex is wxwidgets
|
|
/kicad and /wxwidgets are git submodules from our own forks
|
|
The e2e tests are in /tests, with a README and WHATWORKS md files
|
|
Test determinism rules (no blind sleeps/ifs, `stableShot` screenshots, retries:0) are in tests/TESTING.md, enforced by `npm run lint:determinism`.
|
|
The e2e tests are separated per feature
|
|
Wxwidgets wasm port has hooks for finding positions of UI elements, tests use that
|
|
The test screenshots are tracked with git, per engine (tests/baseline-screenshots/{chromium,firefox}/); CI's Linux render is the source of truth (tooling: tests/tools/screenshots/, see its README).
|
|
To update baselines, promote a CI run's render (churn-free — only meaningfully-changed images restage): `cd tests && npm run screenshots:promote -- --run <ci-run-id>`, then commit. `npm run screenshots:check` is the local gate; on each main push CI posts a screenshot-diff + runtime-perf report to Discord.
|
|
The tests have log files in tests/logs/{wxwidgets/kicad}/{test-name} after each run where the js console and cpp logs are visible
|
|
Always check screenshots for validating tests
|
|
Run e2e tests from /tests folder: `npm run test:e2e` (full CI project set, one merged playwright.config.ts) or `npm run test:kicad` (firefox shortcut) — not playwright directly. One spec/engine: `npx playwright test --project=kicad-firefox kicad/pcbnew.spec.ts`. Web-app suite: `npm run test:web`.
|
|
|
|
Build kicad with docker/build.sh (includes wxwidgets build, runs in docker)
|
|
Build wxwidgets standalone with scripts/build-wx-wasm.sh (runs on machine, for wxwidgets-only changes)
|
|
Build CPP wxwidgets tests with scripts/builds-wasm-test.sh
|
|
The build scripts pipe their outputs into log files so that they won't clog the LLM context.
|
|
Don't pipe outputs, just run the scripts. Maybe with flex if you need that.
|
|
|
|
Don't change the wxwidgets core unless absolutely necessary, try to fix things in the wasm layer.
|
|
Don't change kicad unless absolutely necessary - keep our fork as close to upstream as possible.
|
|
Run scripts/kicad-diff-stats.sh to see how far our KiCad fork has diverged from upstream.
|
|
It's okay to add temporary logging that will be removed for debugging.
|
|
|
|
Don't try to guess what's broken , use debug tools / symbols, supported by the build scripts
|
|
|
|
Feature docs/patches are in features/<branch-name>/. Run scripts/create-feature-patches.sh to save patches for root, kicad, wxwidgets submodules.
|

The landing page / website is in /site (Astro, built and deployed by Vercel on push). The footer shows a build SHA that links to the pcbjam commit the site was built from; because it pins the kicad + wxwidgets submodule revisions implicitly, it is our GPLv3 corresponding-source pointer (see /licenses). It resolves automatically at build time in site/src/components/Footer.astro (VERCEL_GIT_COMMIT_SHA on Vercel, `git rev-parse` locally) — no manual bump needed.
