From 9ab7c22c4854e0865eacccc7c6afcd34cb0e95da Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Ross Date: Fri, 3 Jul 2026 22:21:32 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] fix(test): assert only the empty-state gate in MailboxScreenTest loading test MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The compose FAB does not render reliably under a never-completing refresh==Loading pager (flaked as not-displayed, not-found, then waitForText-timeout across CI runs). Drop the positive FAB anchor; assert only mailbox_empty.assertDoesNotExist() — the actual #219 gate behavior, which is stable and idle-completes.
