Is there an existing fixture or testing project within Cypress e2e framework that contains hierarchical data that responds well to records mode? I've found this jsonValue data in (rows_records.cy.js](OpenRefine/main/tests/cypress/cypress/e2e/project/grid/viewpanel-header/rows_records.cy.js at 62b0e69a2c216e5e1d11e222826123b0b4a4d3c9 · OpenRefine/OpenRefine · GitHub). But nothing accessible from other test files.

I don't see anything at a glance. One approach might be to refactor that test and split out a record/row test fixture to main/tests/cypress/cypress/fixtures so that you can reuse it in other contexts.

I like that idea. What's the procedure for this kind of change? Should I make an issue on GitHub or just submit a PR?
It's always nice to have an issue first that describes the problem well for its intended audience (developers or users). Our CONTRIBUTING.md which has links especially Code contributions | OpenRefine (you have read it recently, Yes?) also details some of the expectations.
Here's the corresponding issue on GitHub: Fixture for e2e testing against records mode in Cypress · Issue #6584 · OpenRefine/OpenRefine · GitHub
Thanks for creating the issue. While what Thad says about us preferring the PRs have a corresponding issue (because issues are how we track most things), in this case I think we would have been fine to include a minor refactoring like this with the PR that needed. Not a big deal either way.
