Proposed changes

Two pre-existing CI e2e flakes seen on #7656 and on unrelated branches.

1. "Save your encryption password" banner never shows after a fresh-install deeplink login (Android shard 14, Keyboard Navigation Components)

Root cause: handleEncryptionInit runs on LOGIN.SUCCESS and returns early when neither the cached servers row nor state.settings.E2E_Enable is set. On a fresh install both are populated by the same un-awaited getSettings(server) REST round trip started in connect(), so whenever LOGIN.SUCCESS wins that race the saga exits and nothing re-runs it once settings land. The banner is lost for the whole session, which is why the 60s extendedWaitUntil in the flow never helps. Keyboard Navigation Room only passes because it waits on a room sync first, which gives the settings fetch time to finish.

Fix: when E2E_Enable is still unknown from both sources, the saga waits for SETTINGS.ADD (looping until the value is defined, since the local-DB setSettings also dispatches it without E2E_Enable on a fresh install) and then re-evaluates. The wait races against LOGOUT and SERVER.SELECT_REQUEST so it never dangles across a logout or server switch; takeLatest alone does not cover that because those paths dispatch ENCRYPTION.STOP, never a second ENCRYPTION.INIT. The "servers row OR settings says enabled" semantics are unchanged, and a row that already says false skips without waiting.

Regression test app/sagas/__tests__/encryption.settingsRace.test.ts drives the real saga and reducers through createRecordingStore. The late-settings case fails on develop (banner stays empty) and passes with the fix.

2. iOS shard 11 at the edge of the 30-minute Maestro step

Per-flow timings from the failing run: Ignore User 7m31s, Jump to message 6m06s, Room Actions 6m24s, Mark as unread 1m03s, 21m04s total. Android runs the same shard in 17m57s and Jump to message takes exactly 6m06s on both platforms, so the cost is inherent to the flows (a 300+ message room with scrollUntilVisible hunts, and 50+ tap/wait round trips in Room Actions and Ignore User), with iOS adding roughly a minute per navigation-heavy flow. Shards 3, 6 and 12 also landed at 23 to 26 minutes on the same run once a single flow needed a rerun round.

Changes: Jump to message moves from shard 11 to shard 5 (11m31s iOS, 14m01s Android, no reruns), and the iOS "Run Maestro Tests" step timeout goes from 30 to 45 minutes with the job timeout from 40 to 65 so the step limit, which preserves the log upload, always fires before the job limit (the job also has a 15 minute build step). assert-maestro-shards.sh passes.

Failing run: https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.ReactNative/actions/runs/34259766941 (#7656). Same Android failure on https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.ReactNative/actions/runs/34278397719.

How to test or reproduce

  1. Fresh install, login via the auth deeplink, watch for the "Save your encryption password" banner on the rooms list. On develop it is missing on a fraction of runs; with this change it appears once settings finish loading.
  2. TZ=UTC pnpm test app/sagas/__tests__/encryption.settingsRace.test.ts
  3. Check the iOS Maestro shard 5 and shard 11 job durations on this PR's run.

Further comments

Raising the timeout alone would have hidden the shard imbalance; rebalancing alone still leaves the other 23 to 26 minute iOS shards one rerun away from the old limit, so both changes are needed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved encryption setup when the end-to-end encryption setting loads after initialization.
    • Encryption now waits for a defined setting and stops safely when logging out or switching servers.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for delayed, immediate, disabled, and undefined encryption settings.
    • Updated automated test scenario assignments.
  • Chores

    • Increased time limits for iOS automated test workflows.

…e iOS Maestro shard 11

handleEncryptionInit returned early when neither the servers row nor
state.settings.E2E_Enable was set. On a fresh install both come from the
un-awaited getSettings() REST call started in connect(), so when
LOGIN.SUCCESS won the race the encryption banner was never shown for the
session. The saga now waits for SETTINGS.ADD until E2E_Enable is defined,
racing against LOGOUT and SERVER.SELECT_REQUEST.

Jump to message moves from shard 11 to shard 5 and the iOS Maestro step
and job timeouts rise to 45 and 65 minutes.

Walkthrough

The encryption saga now waits for delayed E2E_Enable settings and cancels that wait on logout or server selection. New tests cover these paths. iOS Maestro timeouts, a flow tag, and a scenario fixture are updated.

Changes

Encryption settings resolution

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 9f2e5

The change improves encryption-settings handling and extends iOS test timeouts, but an individual Maestro run may still be stopped before the new step timeout, leaving CI flake risk.

Add an explicit void return type to selectServerAndLogin.

The helper dispatches actions and returns no value. Add : void to comply with the TypeScript guideline.

No change required. Three other flows retain the test-11 tag, so shard 11 remains valid and cannot fail with No flows for test-11 because of this move.
