I feel you. When working on larger applications I regularly ran into this problem:
- Adjust code
- Adjust unit test
- send it to CI
- Integration test failed
And this was actually a good thing. Despite me being confident about my changes to the code and unit test I realized that another part of the app was failing subsequently.
Testing this manually, at least for me, leads to repetitive least-effort testing. Fill the form with whatever garbage it needs to validate and be done. It’s the shortest way to create software that sometimes works but mostly doesn’t. And those people who tested the same workflow upwards of 100 times by hand tend to lose their sanity at some point.
