Task 8. New simulator/e2e Playwright tier (§9 browser tier). altitude-lock.spec proves: zooming plays the morph matching the landed clip (forward + .rev), and the clip is LOCKED after landing (no change while parked). advance() records played morph paths on window.__hefMorphs (diagnostic seam; reliable under the blob cache).

Simulator E2E (Playwright)
Browser end-to-end tests for the Human Experience Filter simulator. The §9 pipeline requires an E2E browser tier for any UI surface; this is that tier.
What it covers
tests/altitude-lock.spec.ts drives the real simulator and asserts the
altitude-morph behavior:
- Zooming to a new altitude plays the morph that matches the clip it lands on
(forward zoom-in, and
.revzoom-out). - After landing, the clip is locked — it does not change while parked (no secondary swap, no re-roll).
The played morph paths are read from window.__hefMorphs (a diagnostic array
populated by advance() in static/app.js), which is reliable even when a morph
is served from the in-memory blob cache. The locked clip is read from the
Dev-Mode #scale-name readout.
Running
Prerequisites: the project Python venv on PATH (the Playwright webServer boots
uvicorn simulator.app:app from the repo root), Node, and the Chromium browser.
# from this directory (simulator/e2e)
npm install
npx playwright install chromium
npm test
playwright.config.ts starts uvicorn on port 8099 automatically (reuseExistingServer
locally) and points the tests at it.
