@asengupta3 given that these are major version changes, let's hold off on merging these until we have Annie and she can thoroughly test through multiple runs for happy paths and unhappy paths.

Sorry it took a minute, but finally got around to testing other tasks - PA works a treat (despite null theta values), but both SWR and SRE fail to launch, it looks like a Firekit problem? Did we/do we need to update our version of roarFirekit? We're aiming to deprecate this for queries etc that we manage, but we won't be able to do the same for ROAR tasks.

New tests on these since assignment has been fixed! Full rundown below, but I think only one of these are "ours" to fix. To discuss if other issues are blockers.

Issues for us

• German SRE shows English consent form - to change variant document

Full QA

• English SWR has inconsistent performance. I'm seeing skipped trials and too-fast presentation in some cases, and it's slow to detect button presses (see about 0:45-1min below - the item "runey" is too fast, and then the item after "stins" is blank). This seems to be confined to Firefox, but difficult to know. This is happening with the previous version, so shouldn't block the push, but we maybe want to report to ROAR?

• English Language sounds/phonological awareness stalled finding an asset - seems like a missing file?

• German PA doesn't launch - this is because @zwatson2001 has a pending PR in the roar-pa repo. We can wait on that, just need to make sure it doesn't make it into the prod task picker.
• German SWR: One of the pseudoword items in the German itembank contains an underscore (A_bnistieked) - this probably should not be the case?
• For German SRE in the begininng of the task it has the consent info/demographic info in English - this can probably be removed by changing the variant parameters on our end.
• The practice items work, but target items aren't loading properly - everything reads as undefined (see below). There don't seem to be any related console errors.

• In Spanish PA/Language sounds, the example sounds feel a bit too fast in the practice, e.g., what should be "el primer sonido es 'a'" sounds like "el primer sonido esa"
• Also in Spanish langauge sounds, the progress bar speeds forward at the end because I think this is based on English which has more items; should track actual progress.
