ProgramTest.clickButton "A"

This should be able to pass, clicking the first button.

This is a shortcoming of https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/elm-explorations/test/latest/Test-Html-Selector#text afaik, Test.Html.Selector provides no way to distinguish full-text matches from substring matches, so I'm not sure there's a way to fix this without additions to elm-explorations/test.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the text matching logic in Test.Html.Selector and consider if a full text match function can be added or if clickButton can be modified to prefer full text matches.
