CLI E2E CLEANUP BUG LEAVES TEST APPS BEHIND IN DEV DASHBOARD

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Shopify · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

Shopify CLI's test cleanup was silently failing, leaving orphaned apps scattered across the Dev Dashboard because it mistook an error state for an empty list.

The e2e test suite creates temporary Shopify apps with GitHub Actions run tokens baked into the names for easy cleanup [1]. When individual app deletions failed on Dashboard errors, the fallback cleanup script would check the apps list, see zero cards rendered, and exit successfully without realizing it had hit an error state [1]. This left behind apps from every failed run, polluting the Dev Dashboard and making it harder to identify which test artifacts actually belong to the current run. The fix [2] now forces the cleanup to retry and explicitly verify deletion, rather than treating a zero-card render as proof of success [3]. In parallel, the team bumped Javy dependencies to pull in a QuickJS bug fix from the latest wasm runtime [4], closing a separate gap in function execution reliability.
