Playwright

Our primary E2E and browser testing framework. We build Playwright automation frameworks with TypeScript, Page Object Model, cross-browser coverage, and CI/CD integration.

Overview

Playwright Technology Overview

Playwright's TypeScript-native API, cross-browser support, auto-waiting, network interception, and built-in API testing module make it the most complete E2E testing framework for modern web applications. Unlike Selenium (too slow and flaky) and Cypress (limited to Chromium, no multi-tab), Playwright runs tests across Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit with genuine parallel execution and reliable selectors.

We use Playwright for E2E automation on Next.js, React, and WordPress projects we build — and offer Playwright as a standalone service for clients whose existing applications lack automated test coverage.

Every Playwright framework we build follows Page Object Model architecture — separating page interaction code from test logic so that UI changes require updating one file, not every test. We configure HTML reports with screenshots and video on failure, integrate with GitHub Actions or GitLab CI, and deliver a framework your team can extend without needing to understand its full internals.

Challenges

Playwright Challenges Solved

01

No Automated Test Coverage on an Existing Application

Products without automated tests accumulate risk with every deployment — no way to know if a new feature broke existing functionality. We start with a coverage audit, identify the highest-risk user flows without test coverage, and prioritise from there rather than trying to test everything at once.

02

Flaky Tests That Erode Team Trust

Test suites with high flakiness rates are counterproductive — teams start ignoring failures, which defeats the purpose of having tests. We write tests with stable data-testid selectors, proper async waitFor logic instead of arbitrary timeouts, and isolated state that doesn't depend on other tests running first.

03

Slow Test Suites Blocking Deployment Pipelines

Test suites that take 30+ minutes to run block CI/CD pipelines and create frustration that leads teams to skip tests. We configure parallel execution across multiple browsers and workers, separate fast unit/integration tests from slower E2E tests, and tag tests for selective execution on specific branches.

04

Tests Only Run Locally — Not in CI

Tests that run locally but not in CI don't protect production. We integrate every Playwright framework with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Bitbucket Pipelines — tests run automatically on every pull request with clear pass/fail reporting and deployment blocking on critical test failures.

05

Existing Test Suite Nobody Maintains

Old test suites built without a clear architecture accumulate technical debt — flaky selectors, hardcoded timeouts, tests that depend on each other's state. We refactor existing suites: cleaning up unstable selectors, restructuring into Page Object Model, and eliminating inter-test dependencies.

FAQs

Common Questions About This Technology

01. What is the Page Object Model and why does it matter?
POM separates page interaction code (clicking buttons, filling forms, reading text) from test logic (assertions about what should happen). When your UI changes, you update one Page Object file — not every test that touches that element. It makes Playwright test suites maintainable as the application evolves rather than becoming unmaintainable as soon as a UI element changes.
02. Can you add Playwright tests to an existing application?
Yes — we start with a coverage audit to identify the highest-risk untested flows and prioritise from there. For most existing applications, the first priority is E2E coverage of critical user journeys: login, core workflow completion, and checkout or form submission — not trying to achieve 100% coverage immediately.
03. How do you handle flaky tests?
We diagnose flakiness by replacing unstable CSS class or text-based selectors with data-testid attributes, replacing arbitrary setTimeout waits with Playwright's built-in auto-waiting and waitFor assertions, and isolating tests so they create their own test data rather than depending on pre-existing state.
04. Can you integrate Playwright with our existing CI/CD pipeline?
Yes — we configure GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Bitbucket Pipelines to run Playwright tests automatically on every pull request. Tests run in parallel across configured browsers, with HTML reports published as CI artifacts and deployment blocking on critical test failures.
05. Do you provide documentation so our team can add more tests?
Yes — every Playwright framework we deliver includes a README explaining how to run tests locally, how to add new Page Object classes, and how to write new test specs. We also offer a Zoom handover session walking through the framework structure so your team understands the patterns and can extend coverage independently.
06. Playwright vs Cypress vs Selenium — which is better?
Playwright is our recommendation for new test automation projects. It supports all major browsers (including WebKit/Safari, which Cypress doesn't), has faster and more reliable test execution than Selenium, supports parallel execution across browsers natively, and has a TypeScript-first API that catches errors at compile time. Cypress remains popular and is a reasonable choice for teams already using it; Selenium is generally only justified for legacy projects with existing Selenium infrastructure.
