Get ready to dive into the world of Playwright! This guide was designed to give you a hands-on, practical journey through everything you need to know about using Playwright for automation and testing.

Whether you’re just getting started or looking to level up your skills, this walkthrough has you covered! We’ll walk you through setting up your testing environment, writing and running tests, making the most of Playwright’s powerful features (yes, we’ll talk a lot about fixtures 🙂), and exploring the awesome debugging tools it offers.

With step-by-step instructions and practical exercises along the way, you’ll learn how to automate browser interactions, perform end-to-end testing, and tackle complex testing scenarios with confidence.

By the end, you’ll be fully equipped to build reliable, maintainable, and rock-solid tests for your applications. Let’s get started!

 I’m a Quality Assurance Engineer with a passion for automation, mentoring, and making things work flawlessly. I specialize in Playwright (my favorite), enjoy working with Cypress too, and I get a real kick out of breaking things on purpose—so they don’t break when it matters.

Before diving deep into QA, I worked as a Frontend Developer, which gave me a strong eye for user experience and the details that really matter on the surface. That perspective still shapes how I test today, always thinking like a developer and a user.

I also hold a master’s in Physics (yep, science nerd at heart ), and when I’m not in front of a screen, you’ll likely find me in a ballet studio, dancing it out one pirouette at a time. 

Let’s build better software—and maybe throw in a plié or two along the way.
