Playwright

Playwright is a powerful tool for end-to-end testing of web applications. It enables reliable testing across multiple browsers (Chromium, Firefox, WebKit), platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS), and languages (TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, .NET, Java).

Key Features:

• Cross-Browser Testing: Ensures your application works seamlessly across different browsers.
• Auto-wait: Eliminates flaky tests by waiting for elements to be actionable before performing actions.
• Web-first Assertions: Provides assertions specifically designed for dynamic web applications.
• Tracing: Captures detailed execution traces, videos, and screenshots for debugging.
• Browser Contexts: Creates isolated browser contexts for each test, ensuring full test isolation with minimal overhead.
• Codegen: Generates tests by recording user actions.
• Playwright Inspector: Inspects pages, generates selectors, and steps through test execution.
• Trace Viewer: Investigates test failures with screencasts, DOM snapshots, and action explorers.

Use Cases:

• Automated end-to-end testing of web applications.
• Cross-browser compatibility testing.
• Regression testing.
• Performance testing.
• Mobile web testing with native mobile emulation.
