Add E2E Tests for Project Discovery Flow

[ReinaMaze]

Test: Write E2E tests for discovering and viewing projects Description: No E2E tests exist; critical user journey untested.

Acceptance Criteria:

• E2E test: Navigate to discover page, filter by category, open project detail
• Verify project data displays correctly
• Test filtering by verification status
• Test search functionality
• Test pagination between pages
• Test sorting (by rating, recently added, etc.)
• Measure page load time; should be < 2s

I’d like to work on this issue.

I have experience writing end-to-end tests for user-facing workflows and can cover the complete project discovery journey from navigation through project details. My approach would be to create reliable E2E tests that validate filtering, searching, sorting, pagination, and project detail rendering while keeping the tests maintainable and resistant to UI changes.

For this issue, I would:

• Create an E2E test that navigates to the Discover page, filters projects by category, and opens a project detail page.
• Verify that project information (title, description, category, rating, verification status, and other relevant metadata) is displayed correctly.
• Add tests for filtering by verification status and validate that only matching projects are shown.
• Test search functionality with valid queries and ensure results are updated correctly.
• Verify pagination behavior, including navigation between pages and persistence of applied filters/search criteria where applicable.
• Test sorting options such as rating and recently added, confirming that results are ordered correctly.
• Measure and assert page load performance, ensuring the Discover page loads within the required threshold of less than 2 seconds.

I would use the existing testing stack (or Playwright/Cypress if applicable), follow project conventions, and include clear assertions and reusable helpers to keep the test suite easy to maintain.

Looking forward to contributing to this issue.
