Fixed Issues

$ https://github.com/Expensify/Expensify/issues/240878

Tests

1. Send a few messages to another user
2. Verify that the messages are grouped and appear with the correct time
3. Wait 5+ minutes
4. Send another message and verify that your avatar and name show up and the message has the correct time

Android-specific tests

1. Sign into the Android app
2. Sign into another account on web and upload a custom profile picture for that account
3. Background the Android app
4. Send a message from the account signed in on web to the account signed in on Android
5. Verify that a push notification appears and that the notification appears a message style notification, including the avatar image of the web user.

• Verify that no errors appear in the JS console

QA Steps

Same as test steps

• Verify that no errors appear in the JS console

PR Author Checklist

• I linked the correct issue in the ### Fixed Issues section above
• I wrote clear testing steps that cover the changes made in this PR
  • I added steps for local testing in the Tests section
  • I added steps for Staging and/or Production testing in the QA steps section
  • I added steps to cover failure scenarios (i.e. verify an input displays the correct error message if the entered data is not correct)
  • I turned off my network connection and tested it while offline to ensure it matches the expected behavior (i.e. verify the default avatar icon is displayed if app is offline)
• I included screenshots or videos for tests on all platforms
• I ran the tests on all platforms & verified they passed on:
  • iOS / native
  • Android / native
  • iOS / Safari
  • Android / Chrome
  • MacOS / Chrome
  • MacOS / Desktop
• I verified there are no console errors (if there's a console error not related to the PR, report it or open an issue for it to be fixed)
• I followed proper code patterns (see Reviewing the code)
  • I verified that any callback methods that were added or modified are named for what the method does and never what callback they handle (i.e. toggleReport and not onIconClick)
  • I verified that comments were added to code that is not self explanatory
  • I verified that any new or modified comments were clear, correct English, and explained "why" the code was doing something instead of only explaining "what" the code was doing.
  • I verified any copy / text shown in the product was added in all src/languages/* files
  • I verified any copy / text that was added to the app is correct English and approved by marketing by adding the Waiting for Copy label for a copy review on the original GH to get the correct copy.
  • I verified proper file naming conventions were followed for any new files or renamed files. All non-platform specific files are named after what they export and are not named "index.js". All platform-specific files are named for the platform the code supports as outlined in the README.
  • I verified the JSDocs style guidelines (in STYLE.md) were followed
• If a new code pattern is added I verified it was agreed to be used by multiple Expensify engineers
• I followed the guidelines as stated in the Review Guidelines
• I tested other components that can be impacted by my changes (i.e. if the PR modifies a shared library or component like Avatar, I verified the components using Avatar are working as expected)
• I verified all code is DRY (the PR doesn't include any logic written more than once, with the exception of tests)
• I verified any variables that can be defined as constants (ie. in CONST.js or at the top of the file that uses the constant) are defined as such
• If a new component is created I verified that:
  • A similar component doesn't exist in the codebase
  • All props are defined accurately and each prop has a /** comment above it */
  • The file is named correctly
  • The component has a clear name that is non-ambiguous and the purpose of the component can be inferred from the name alone
  • The only data being stored in the state is data necessary for rendering and nothing else
  • For Class Components, any internal methods passed to components event handlers are bound to this properly so there are no scoping issues (i.e. for onClick={this.submit} the method this.submit should be bound to this in the constructor)
  • Any internal methods bound to this are necessary to be bound (i.e. avoid this.submit = this.submit.bind(this); if this.submit is never passed to a component event handler like onClick)
  • All JSX used for rendering exists in the render method
  • The component has the minimum amount of code necessary for its purpose, and it is broken down into smaller components in order to separate concerns and functions
• If a new CSS style is added I verified that:
  • A similar style doesn't already exist
  • The style can't be created with an existing StyleUtils function (i.e. StyleUtils.getBackgroundAndBorderStyle(themeColors.componentBG)
• If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
• If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories, I tested and verified all stories for that component are still working as expected.
• I have checked off every checkbox in the PR author checklist, including those that don't apply to this PR.

@luacmartins Is it good to test locally? considering its tagged on Hold ?

[luacmartins]

@mananjadhav this will fail right now since the date format returned by the API is invalid for the changes in this PR. We'll ping you once it's ready for you to test!

[luacmartins]

@roryabraham I'm going ooo until Nov 22, could you help push this through the finish line please?

[mananjadhav]

I just reviewed the code. Going through the code to see if we've missed any references and will start with the testing then.

[Julesssss]

👍

[Julesssss]

Changes and comment updates seem good to me. Testing well also 👍

[mananjadhav]

@Julesssss @roryabraham @luacmartins I was testing this and I've got one blocker.

Unfortunately I couldn't get a physical Android device where I could received the Push Notifications for now. The chat timestamps etc, work fine but the PN avatar image I am unable to test.

[Julesssss]

Unfortunately I couldn't get a physical Android device where I could received the Push Notifications for now. The chat timestamps etc, work fine but the PN avatar image I am unable to test.

No worries, I'm certain I tested that, but I'm going to test once more quickly to confirm.

[mananjadhav]

Thanks @Julesssss I've then completed the reviewer checklist.

[Julesssss]

Damn, actually I'm going to run out of time for this today.

Verify that a push notification appears and that the notification appears a message style notification, including the avatar image of the web user.

@luacmartins did you need a release build in order to test this? I'm unable to receive notifications, and we can't use prod builds until the Web-E PR is deployed, right?

[Julesssss]

Web-E was deployed to prod last night so I can now test this with a release build. We're still blocked on merging this though:

Verify that a push notification appears and that the notification appears a message style notification, including the avatar image of the web user.

This test fails btw. I'm not seeing the profile pic on either Android device -- though part of me thinks that this has been broken for a while.

@roryabraham @luacmartins please let me know if there was a better way to run the Android notification test.

[roryabraham]

This test fails btw. I'm not seeing the profile pic on either Android device -- though part of me thinks that this has been broken for a while.

I confirmed that this is currently not working on staging, so I don't think that this is something that was broken by this PR. We should make sure we create a follow-up issue to fix that.

[roryabraham]

The PR reviewer was filled out here, but the action to verify that has recently changed (along with the PR reviewer checklist itself, if I'm not mistaken). I'm not going to block on this though since the checklist was filled out and this PR was tested and approved by a C+ and internal engineer.

[melvin-bot]

@roryabraham looks like this was merged without the checklist test passing. Please add a note explaining why this was done and remove the Emergency label if this is not an emergency.

[roryabraham]

Not an emergency, see last comment
