2. Form Validation: All client-side validations are working correctly, providing real-time feedback to users.

3. Services Integration: Frontend successfully connects to backend API Gateway at localhost:9100.

4. Admin Panel: API proxy is configured correctly, resolving previous 401 errors.

5. Chrome Compatibility: CSS overflow issues have been resolved for Chrome browser.

🚀 Next Actions

To fully validate the end-to-end flow:

1. Run the manual test script: node manual-e2e-test.cjs
2. Enter CAPTCHA when prompted
3. Complete email verification with OTP
4. Fill company profile
5. Check admin panel for the verification request

Alternatively, you can:

• Disable CAPTCHA in development mode for automated testing
• Use a test-only backend endpoint that bypasses CAPTCHA
• Implement a test fixture that pre-creates verified accounts
