About this skill
What it does. Guides Playwright browser testing from user-flow analysis and configuration through test implementation, debugging and CI integration. It produces page objects, independent tests, fixtures, assertions and configuration using role-based selectors, auto-waiting, parallel execution, traces and screenshots; it also covers API mocking and visual regression testing.
When to use it. Applies to end-to-end, UI, browser and visual tests, including flaky-test investigation with the trace viewer and repeat runs. It avoids arbitrary timeouts, brittle CSS selectors and shared test state.
