I am re-running the failed UI Tests for Android and iOS. The failure was due to the File Block UI tests that have failed in the past. I had created a PR that increased sleep time on Android before a click operation that was causing the failure. That change was just merged so it's not included here. I will keep an eye out for this on other PRs to ensure it's not taking place.

@cameronvoell for the bundle updates. Do we run the bundle update command every time we update the Gutenberg ref? I just noticed that after the last GB ref update it wasn't updated so let me know if that's expected.

Update

This question was answered by @cameronvoell The bundles are only updated when the Gutenberg ref update contains code changes. The last Gutenberg ref update that was made is related to a changelog commit.

LGTM 🚢

@cameronvoell for the bundle updates. Do we run the bundle update command every time we update the Gutenberg ref? I just noticed that after the last GB ref update it wasn't updated so let me know if that's expected.

The bundle has no changes and doesnt require an update because the latest changes were only to release-notes and gutenberg change log. In the future I'll try and avoid making those the last updates on the PR because I agree the reference update with no bundle update after looks scary. I re-ran the bundle command just to be extra sure and verified it shows no changes (since I ran it on my machine last and no updates to relevant files since then).

I did writing flow tests for iOS and Android just to be safe and everything looks good with no regressions 🎉
