[UX - TESTING] Test Sitewide-managed apps/features/products against a 640px breakpoint

[FranECross]

Status

[2024-05] 768 deprecation has no listed date. We've deprioritized this effort until it's clear that it's a priority with a timeline. [2024-04-25] This will be unblocked by the work in Sprint 2 wherein the FE folks will stand-up a test environment for testing the new breakpoint, so moving it into Ready for Jordan's consideration for Sprint 3.

Description

The Design System Team will be deprecating the 768px breakpoint and adding a 640px breakpoint (tentatively) in mid-August.

We need to ensure this change doesn't adversely affect any Public Website managed features/apps/products, and Jordan has offered to test the Public Websites products/apps/features at the 640px breakpoint to identify any issues.

User story

AS A PO/PM for Public Websites apps/features/products I WANT to ensure we accommodate the deprecation of the current 768px breakpoint and addition of a new 640px breakpoint SO THAT Veterans, their caregivers, family and survivors continue have a good experience when in VA.gov

@chriskim2311 @randimays Jordan mentioned having ya'll put the new 640px breakpoint on a lower environment so she can then test our products against it. Do you just need a basic ticket asking for this, with AC that Jordan is able to access the test against it? Thanks in advance!

[randimays]

@FranECross Yes, a basic ticket would be good 👍🏻 thanks!

[FranECross]

Thanks, @randimays! I saw your questions to Micah and used info from the Slack thread to create this ticket.

@jilladams I'll still broach this to the PO COP, but wanted to get ahead of the game by creating these tickets, since I don't really see any way to get around at least spot checking/testing. cc @thejordanwood

[davidmpickett]

In UX Sync, we discussed that this is not ready to move yet because DST has not provided a branch where breakpoint changes are staged

[jilladams]

Got lost in the sauce live: #17775 tracks having FE stand up the branch, and that ticket is already listed here as a dependency. 🤦‍♀️

[jilladams]

Also: That ticket is going to move in Sprint 2, very likely. So: back to needing to refine this for Fac vs. PW and whether both can happen.

[jilladams]

FYI: I updated this story to span both PW & Facilities, and borrowed the check list of products from the typography audit ticket.

[jilladams]

(Some of the ACs per product may be silly for a breakpoint check, e.g. the various Cerner CTA widgets. If we know one of them looks ok at this break, they probably all do. Feel free to push back or suggest AC adjustments as necessary.)

[davidmpickett]

Given the scope of the products to review this is an 8 by default. I could see this being just a 5 if there are very few issues to document.

[FranECross]

Thanks, Dave! Leaving it an 8 since there are so many products/apps/pages to look at makes sense.

[jilladams]

We are going to push this from Facilities SSprint 3 to June (after typography). When it comes around, Amanda noted she's happy to help out.

[FranECross]

Per Jill Adam's note in the Epic: Closing this. We've decided we'll work on adopting the 640 breakpoint for all our products, when we move everything over to Accelerated Publishing templates.
