Playwright

What is Playwright?

Playwright is an open-source automation testing framework developed by Microsoft for end-to-end testing of web applications. It supports multiple browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, and WebKit, and allows developers and testers to write tests in JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, and C#. Playwright enables the automation of browser interactions for functional testing, performance testing, and visual regression testing.

Test automation with Playwright is widely used for:

  • End-to-end testing: Verifying the entire application workflow from start to finish by simulating real user interactions.

  • Cross-browser testing: Ensuring that web applications work seamlessly across multiple browsers and devices.

  • UI automation: Automating user interface interactions for functional testing and regression testing.

  • CI/CD integration: Running Playwright tests in continuous integration pipelines to automatically verify application behavior.
