POMWright v1.5 Bridge Migration (BasePage -> BasePageV1toV2)

Migrate v1 BasePage page objects to BasePageV1toV2 (the bridge), converting locator definitions and call-site syntax to v2. The bridge is deprecated and will be removed in 2.0.0; it exists only as a staged migration step.

Workflow

1. Inventory the target POC file: identify BasePage extends, initLocatorSchemas, all addSchema calls, and call-sites using v1 accessors.
2. Switch inheritance from BasePage to BasePageV1toV2. Constructor signature stays the same (page, testInfo, baseUrl, urlPath, pocName, pwrl).
3. Add defineLocators() method stub.
4. Translate each addSchema call from initLocatorSchemas into this.add(path).method(...) inside defineLocators(). See references/schema-translation.md for the full mapping table and examples.
5. Remove translated addSchema entries from initLocatorSchemas. Once all are moved, keep initLocatorSchemas() as an empty method while still extending BasePageV1toV2.
6. Update call-site syntax in tests/helpers/fixtures that consume the POC. See references/call-site-migration.md.
7. Verify by running tests.

Key rules

• Paths already registered in defineLocators are skipped when the bridge translates initLocatorSchemas - no duplicates.
• v1 schemas using Locator instances or missing selector fields cannot be auto-translated; rewrite those in defineLocators immediately.
• BasePageV1toV2 narrows this.locators to addSchema only; no other v1 mutations are exposed.
• v2 accessors (add, getLocator, getNestedLocator, getLocatorSchema) are exposed on the bridge and should be used from this point forward.
• v2 getLocator/getNestedLocator are synchronous (no await). v1 versions were async.
• v2 getNestedLocator no longer accepts index maps. Use getLocatorSchema(path).nth(subPath, index).getNestedLocator() instead.
• filter replaces v1 addFilter. nth replaces v1 index maps. Both can be chained in any order.
