Lots of negativity in the comments but I think the solutions outlined really interesting and valuable! There are some idiosyncrasies around unit testing ui that are just hard to work around. And the issues with e2e tests in the context of testing individual UI pieces are totally valid too.

The one thing that at least initially rubs me the wrong way is how the overrides work. Like I get why that's a solution to how we can inject some data, but I don't like the idea of writing test-specific code in a component just to enable tests with this tool. That being said, I've done similar things in the past when I've run out of options and this looks pretty clean, I just wonder if there's another way.
