Fix flaky tests in spec/features/protected_branches_spec.rb

Javiera Tapia requested to merge 461739-investigate-flaky-tests-in-spec-features-protected_branches_spec-rb into master

What does this MR do and why?

This MR fixes a flaky test affecting protected branches.

The dropdown is sometimes not fully visible in the view to be clicked. The dropdown also covers some buttons that need to be visible for some scenarios.

Solution

  • Resizing the window allows the dropdown to fit in the view. In this case, I chose to maximize the window to avoid any glitches caused by a fixed width and height.
  • Scroll to a position where the dropdown can be seen.
  • Click the dropdown to force it to hide when the selection is done.
