Verification for longer-lived user sessions
xpenser verified extended user sessions and improved Playwright selectors so the PR validation flow checks authenticated app access reliably.
A personal finance app should not unexpectedly interrupt users with unnecessary sign-in prompts.
This release came from PR #7 and is now part of the xpenser release archive. It gives people evaluating an open-source expense tracker a clearer view of how the product has improved over time.
What changed
- Verified the existing session-duration fix in a PR environment.
- Improved Playwright helpers for exact email/password sign-in controls.
- Kept responsive duplicate markup from confusing e2e assertions.
Why it matters
Stable authentication validation protects the daily dashboard workflow and helps future PRs catch regressions before they reach users.
Where it fits
This release strengthened xpenser authentication quality while keeping the user-facing behavior focused on longer-lived sessions.
