[HOLD for payment 2024-10-02] [$750] Implement Debug mode for the App

[mountiny]

Proposal

Implement a debug mode for the App, where user can inspect and tweak the report and report action data of live account (locally only) to test various changes or to try to see why certain ui is showing for a report or report action by seeing the underlying data.

These are the features that are showcased in my POC:

• Toggle debug mode in Troubleshoot page
• Check your accountID on Settings page
• On a report, you’re able to debug it by pressing on the chat header and then pressing on Debug, just below Private Notes
• On this new report debug page, you’re able to modify each property of the report object, in the details tab
• In the JSON tab, you can check the JSON representation of the report
• In the actions tab, you can see the list of all report actions associated with the current report
• You’re able to create a new report action, where you just need to insert the JSON that represent the report action that you want to test and preview how it will look like in the chat
• By pressing an existing report action, you’re redirected to a new report action debug page, where you can modify each property of the report action object, in the details tab
• In the JSON tab, you can check the JSON representation of the report action
• And in the preview tab, you can preview what the report action looks like in the chat
• Besides the features present in the POC, we could also add the ability to debug other parts of the app, like connecting bank accounts, test expensify cards, etc.

This issue has not been updated in over 15 days. @chiragsalian, @jliexpensify, @mountiny, @pac-guerreiro, @DylanDylann eroding to Monthly issue.

P.S. Is everyone reading this sure this is really a near-term priority? Be brave: if you disagree, go ahead and close it out. If someone disagrees, they'll reopen it, and if they don't: one less thing to do!

Hi @mountiny,

This issue is ready for payment. However, before proceeding, I’d like to request an increase in the payment amount, possibly by $500. The pull request is quite large (involving 43 changed files with +3,193 new lines and -121 lines). It took considerable time to review and test everything thoroughly.

I’d appreciate hearing your thoughts. Thank you!

I'll let @mountiny decide if that's approporiate as I have no context. I will be headed OOO after tomorrow so if possible, I'd like to pay this ASAP so it's not reassigned to someone else.

@DylanDylann is a checklist needed for this issue?

I think the checklist isn't required for this issue

⚠️ Could not update price automatically because there is no linked Upwork Job ID. The BZ team member will need to update the price manually in Upwork.

[mountiny]

Yeah, I agree this was a massive PR, so increased bounty is reasonable. $750 to @DylanDylann

[DylanDylann]

@mallenexpensify Done 🙏 The offer was for $250 so I guess an extra $500 will be released as a bonus.

Thanks

Contributor: @DylanDylann paid $750 via Upwork

Thanks for the ping @DylanDylann , I might not have noticed cuz the job was created via automation and I haven't seen an instance in a while where the price in the title wasn't what the Upwork job price was. Please post in #contributor-plus if you see this again.

I'm assuming we don't need a regression test for this. Closing

[mallenexpensify]

Upwork bug, payment didn't go through, @DylanDylann , can you confirm you've been paid now? I issued a $750 bonus and it's showing you were paid

[DylanDylann]

@mallenexpensify Yes I was paid now, thank you
