Browser Testing Efficiency

Overview

Optimize browser testing workflows by choosing the right testing method, batching commands, and using efficient waiting strategies. Reduce execution time from 30-60% of total time to 10-20% through better patterns.

When to Use Test Seams vs. DOM Inspection

Use Test Seams When

• Phaser/canvas games: Test seams are ONLY reliable method
• Canvas-rendered content: DOM text search doesn't work
• Game state access: Need to check game state, not DOM
• Scene navigation: Use test seam commands for transitions
• Deterministic testing: Need controlled game state
