[Playwright](https://playwright.dev) is a cross browser/platform/language tool to write reliable end-to-end tests. It's
|
||||
easy to get started with and offers a broad variety of functionalities out of the box. Playwright supports Windows,
|
||||
macOS and Linux and works with the most popular testing frameworks such as Jest, Mocha and Jasmine.
|
||||
The playwright configuration offers plenty of helpful options, for instance native mobile emulation of Chrome for
|
||||
Android and Safari for iOS. If needed playwright can be extended by BDD tools like Cucumber or SpecFlow to enable
|
||||
non-technical contributors to collaborate.
|
||||
|
||||
Playwright test are resilient. It waits for elements before performing any actions which eliminates the need for
|
||||
timeouts - the primary cause of flaky tests.
|
||||
|
||||
Other than Cypress Playwright can interact with different origins and multiple tabs. Also, you can create scenarios with
|
||||
different contexts to handle multiple users within one test. Contexts allow saving an authentication state to reuse it
|
||||
in other tests. By isolating tests within a separate browser context for each test, the tests are fully independent,
|
||||
although reusing an authentication state. This prevents you from performing repetitive log-in operations in each test.
|
||||
|
||||
As Playwright is developed and maintained by Microsoft there are some great extensions for Visual Studio Code to
|
||||
develop, run and debug tests.
