Playwright

Playwright is Microsoft's modern automation library. It enables reliable end-to-end testing for modern web apps across Chromium, WebKit, and Firefox.

When to Use

  • Modern Web End-to-End Automation: The industry standard for cross-browser testing across Chromium, WebKit (Safari), and Firefox.
  • Multi-Tab & Multi-Origin Testing: Testing complex workflows spanning popups, payment gateways, and multiple browser tabs seamlessly.
  • Mobile Emulation & Geolocation: Simulating iPhone, Pixel, network throttling, and geographic permissions reliably.
  • API Testing Alongside UI: Sending REST and GraphQL requests directly within tests via request context.

Quick Start

import { test, expect } from "@playwright/test";
