Task

Build a flake quarantine mechanism that auto-skips tests after 3 consecutive flakes. Currently no structured process exists.

Background

Implement:

1. quarantine.json file in e2e-tests/ with metadata (test path, Jira link, date, expiry)
2. Playwright integration that reads quarantine list and applies test.skip()
3. Quarantined tests still run in nightly via dedicated showcase-quarantine project (no gating)
4. CI Medic weekly rotation documented in e2e-tests/README.md

Process:

• Detection: automatic via ReportPortal
• Quarantine: auto-skip after 3 consecutive flakes
• Tracking: Jira issue created per flake
• Resolution: CI Medic rotation investigates
• Reinstatement: test returns after fix verified
• Auto-expire: quarantine expires after 2 weeks

Acceptance Criteria

• quarantine.json schema defined and documented
• Playwright reads quarantine list and skips listed tests in gating projects
• Quarantined tests run in nightly showcase-quarantine project
• CI Medic rotation documented with duties and schedule
• At least one flaky test quarantined as proof of concept
