Playwright has become the dominant end-to-end testing framework. This entry covers local Playwright usage (distinct from hosted Playwright Cloud entries) -- the core framework for writing browser automation tests that run in CI and locally. Confidence is docs-derived.
The API surface covers page navigation, element locators (getByRole, getByText, getByLabel), click/fill/check actions, assertions (expect(locator).toBeVisible()), network interception, and file upload/download. Component testing mode uses Vite for in-browser unit tests.
Playwright local tests run against browsers installed by npx playwright install. No platform auth for the local framework. CI integration uses standard environment variables. BrowserStack/Sauce Labs integrations add their own auth for remote execution.
Operationally, Playwright auto-wait eliminates the race conditions that plagued Selenium-based tests. The trace viewer provides step-by-step replay with screenshots for debugging failures. Parallel test execution is built-in with configurable worker counts.
Documentation at playwright.dev is exceptional -- the best testing framework documentation available. Interactive examples, video guides, and the codegen tool that generates test code from browser interaction make it accessible. Developer experience is outstanding.
