  • Added regressions tests

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved Markdown list handling to preserve distinct numbered, bulleted, and checklist lists when list types change.
    • Numbered lists retain their starting numbers when list types change.
    • Nested lists and list items separated by blank lines are preserved more consistently.
    • Markdown lists remain distinct across blank gaps and round-trip consistently between editing and display.

Markdown list parsing now creates separate Lexical lists when item types change and preserves ordered-list start values. Serialization preserves distinct same-kind lists across empty paragraphs. Tests cover list structure, blank-line boundaries, and Markdown round trips.

Changes

Markdown list boundaries

Layer / File(s) Summary
List-type conversion
packages/app/src/features/NoteEditor/RichEditor/plugins/Markdown/markdownParser.ts, packages/app/src/features/NoteEditor/RichEditor/__tests__/spec/list.browser.test.ts
The parser creates separate Lexical lists when consecutive items change type. Ordered-list segments retain start values adjusted for item positions. Browser tests cover mixed list types, nesting, checklists, and numbering.
List marker serialization
packages/app/src/features/NoteEditor/RichEditor/plugins/Markdown/markdownParser.ts, packages/app/src/features/NoteEditor/RichEditor/plugins/Markdown/serializeMarkdownTree.test.ts
The serializer tracks list markers and restores the marker from the nearest preceding same-kind list across empty paragraphs. Tests check marker alternation and parsing into separate lists.
Blank-line handling and round-trip tests
packages/app/src/features/NoteEditor/RichEditor/plugins/Markdown/remark/remarkPreserveBlankLines.ts, packages/app/src/features/NoteEditor/RichEditor/plugins/Markdown/remark/remarkPreserveBlankLines.test.ts, packages/app/src/features/NoteEditor/RichEditor/plugins/Markdown/__tests__/list-boundaries.browser.test.ts, packages/app/src/features/NoteEditor/RichEditor/__tests__/utils/renderEditorInDOM.tsx, packages/app/src/features/NoteEditor/RichEditor/__tests__/spec/list.browser.test.ts
The gap handler no longer inserts synthetic paragraphs between list children. Browser tests cover blank-line gaps and empty list items. The test API adds editor rerender and Markdown-reading helpers.

Compare list semantics, not the entire editor DOM.

utils.prettyDOM(rootNode) serializes the complete Lexical root, so the equality check can fail when unrelated editor markup changes. Keep getMarkdown() as the exact round-trip assertion. Replace the HTML comparison with scoped assertions for list types, item order, and checkbox states after re-rendering.

Assert nested-item ownership.

The fixture nests bar under foo, 2 under 1, and 3 under 2, but the test checks only list and checkbox counts. Reparenting a nested list under the wrong sibling can preserve all three counts. Assert that each nested list belongs to its intended parent item.
