Playwright

Overview

Use this skill to validate browser-level behavior with reproducible artifacts that engineers can replay exactly.

Scope Boundaries

• Use this skill when the task matches the trigger condition described in description.
• Do not use this skill when the primary task falls outside this skill's domain.

Shared References

• Trigger examples:
  • references/trigger-and-examples.md
• Replay determinism rules:
  • references/replay-determinism-rules.md

Templates And Assets

• Test plan template:
  • assets/playwright-test-plan-template.md
• Command profile template:
  • assets/playwright-command-profile-template.md
• Artifact checklist:
  • assets/playwright-artifact-checklist.md

Inputs To Gather

• Critical flows and acceptance expectations.
• Target browsers/devices and environment constraints.
• Auth/test-data setup and security constraints.
• Required artifacts for failure triage.

Deliverables

• Browser test scenario plan.
• Local-fast and CI-full command profiles.
• Trace/screenshot/video evidence for failures.
• Residual flakiness and ownership log.

Workflow

1. Define scenarios with assets/playwright-test-plan-template.md.
2. Define command profiles in assets/playwright-command-profile-template.md.
3. Apply deterministic execution rules from references/replay-determinism-rules.md.
4. Execute and capture artifacts.
5. Validate evidence completeness via assets/playwright-artifact-checklist.md.

Quality Standard

• Browser evidence is replayable without hidden steps.
• Artifacts map to explicit scenarios and failures.
• Critical flows include happy/edge/failure coverage.

Failure Conditions

• Stop when prerequisites for deterministic replay are missing.
• Stop when artifacts cannot reproduce observed failures.
• Escalate when external instability prevents reliable browser evidence.
