Torq's frontend application is the cornerstone of our platform, serving as the primary interface for our customers' daily operations.
Many users engage with it extensively, often for hours on end, making it our most widely utilized user facing service.
It is no surprise that the most effective method for evaluating frontend changes is through hands-on visual inspection and interaction.
Inspired by platforms like Vercel and Netlify, we've decided to implement a preview environment generator into our CI pipeline, automatically creating fully functioning preview environments on our K8S cluster for each pull request in our frontend repository.
This has significantly enhanced our development process, allowing us to:
1. Craft more comprehensive and refined pull requests
2. Collaborate more closely with UI/UX designers and product managers
3. Execute end-to-end tests prior to merging changes into the main branch
