Description

We will build an integrated DevOps workflow for Matjakt, an existing grocery price comparison application using React, TypeScript, Vite and Supabase. Originally developed as a thesis project by one team member, the application will be deployed to a separate course environment on Google Cloud Run.

The project will include:

• CI: GitHub Actions will run ESLint, TypeScript checks, Vitest, database tests, Playwright end-to-end tests and a production build. Integration tests will use real local Supabase; external routing and map requests will be mocked.
• Infrastructure as Code: Terraform will manage Cloud Run, Artifact Registry, APIs, IAM and OIDC identities within a separate Google Cloud project. HCP Terraform will store state, provide speculative PR plans and automatically plan/apply infrastructure changes pushed to main.
• CD: After successful main checks, Actions will apply course migrations, package the verified build into a container and deploy a tagged revision without live traffic. Smoke tests will precede promotion of that same revision. Releases will record their commit and support frontend rollback.
• Reproducibility: Versioned Supabase configuration, migrations, synthetic fixtures, pinned dependencies and Docker-based local development will support starting from a clean clone. Creating the hosted Supabase project will be a documented bootstrap step.
• Quality and collaboration: GitHub pull requests and required checks, ESLint, Dependabot and dependency auditing will support change control. Google authentication will use short-lived OIDC credentials.

The course database will use a catalog-only production snapshot, excluding accounts and profiles. Local development and CI will use deterministic synthetic data. Price collection will remain outside scope.

We will document AI assistance and provide a 2–3-page report explaining architecture, verification, decisions and limitations, alongside repository instructions and pipeline evidence.

Relevance

The project will connect testing, infrastructure provisioning and deployment into one reproducible workflow. It will demonstrate CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code and recovery, including the trade-offs of managed services and a shared preview/live database.
