Summary
This PR further improves E2E workflow reliability and speed.
Fixes #34
1. Playwright browser caching
E2E runs were repeatedly downloading Playwright browsers, which made CI slower and more prone to transient download failures.
Fix: Added Playwright browser caching so repeated runs can reuse downloaded browsers.
2. Azure archive mirror timeouts
Ubuntu package downloads from the Azure archive mirror sometimes time out during Playwright dependency installation.
Fix: Switched CI package downloads to the main Ubuntu archive mirror. This is a bit hacky, but it appears to be much faster and more reliable.
3. WordPress readiness check
wp-env startdoes not always mean WordPress is fully ready before tests continue.Fix: Added a WordPress login page check before installing Playwright and running tests.
