LGTM 🥇

Out of interest, if we run Simorgh in production mode for live, what do we see?

yarn build:live && yarn start

If we compare local to the live version of the tipo homepage, are they the same?

Local	Live (on test environment with renderer_env override)
http://localhost:7080/serbian/cyr	https://www.test.bbc.com/serbian/cyr?renderer_env=live
http://localhost:7080/serbian/lat	https://www.test.bbc.com/serbian/lat?renderer_env=live
http://localhost:7080/zhongwen/simp	https://www.test.bbc.com/zhongwen/simp?renderer_env=live
http://localhost:7080/zhongwen/trad	https://www.test.bbc.com/zhongwen/trad?renderer_env=live

I had a midnight musing

The E2E tests will fail once this PR reaches the live environment, as it will be trying to run FrontPage tests against the Homepage. We need to disable those tests in this PR completely, and to add one or both of the variant services to the Homepage E2E Tests.

Example of disabled front page test:

simorgh/cypress/support/config/settings.js

Line 42 in cbf7c2b

frontPage: { environments: undefined, smoke: false },

Add an entry for live here:

simorgh/cypress/e2e/pages/homePage/urls.js

Lines 14 to 24 in cbf7c2b

	{
	service: 'serbian',
	local: '/serbian/lat',
	test: '/serbian/lat',
	},
	{
	service: 'serbian',
	local: '/serbian/cyr',
	test: '/serbian/cyr',
	},
	];

Can we also have a look at the lighthouse tests:

🗑️

simorgh/lighthouse/lighthouserc.js

Lines 2 to 5 in 114ee50

	FRONT_PAGE: {
	live: ['https://www.bbc.com/serbian/cyr'],
	test: [],
	},

Add serbian/lat to the live array:

simorgh/lighthouse/lighthouserc.js

Lines 59 to 65 in 114ee50

	TIPO_HOME_PAGE: {
	live: ['https://www.bbc.com/kyrgyz'],
	test: [
	'https://www.test.bbc.com/kyrgyz?renderer_env=live',
	'https://www.test.bbc.com/serbian/lat?renderer_env=live',
	],
	},

@karinathomasbbc Both serbian local pages look identical to the live tipo homepages 🎉 ✅
However the test zhongwen pages 404? The local ones too so they do match (lol) 😆 but not what I was expecting to see! 🤔

However the test zhongwen pages 404?

From doing a bit of digging about, it looks like the zhongwen tipo live page had been last updated in May 2024, meaning that it had possibly not been transliterated. I've re-saved it, and I am hoping that it generates the 2 variants behind the scenes 🤞 . Just waiting for the cache to expire and will try again in a few minutes.

Otherwise, it could be that these topics won't work until transliteration is live - 5th December?

I think we should just re-check those URLs again closer to the release date, just to make sure everything is OK - I imagine that they will updated by Editorial in preparation for going live.

The date was pushed back by Editorial due to some problems found, so it's now 10th December! Thank you (for this and for your review & comments), I'll make a note on the ticket about re-checking these next week. 🙌
