Additional Information

This PR contains the setup for Playwright, and some tests. The current set of tests asserts

1. role-specific features
2. the navigation guard intercepting attempts to access the app UI while logged out

This documentation explains the authentication bypass mechanism that's needed to make the tests pass, how to configure Playwright and how to setup your tests to run in a logged-out/logged-in state.

The only changes made to the application code are:

1. Adding data-testids to DOM elements, which is used by the tests.
2. Ignoring the ticket verification logic in CI environment.
