How To Setup Playwright Test Automation Framework | Playwright Tutorial🎭| Part I | LambdaTest

Watch this video as we talk about a relatively new automation testing framework called Playwright and learn what it is, how to install it, and how we can execute tests using Playwright.

➡ Playwright is an open-source, cross-browser automation framework that provides e2e testing without the need for any third-party tools. The Playwright focuses on the Chrome engine and supports Microsoft Edge, built on the Chromium engine, which supports Firefox and WebKit (Safari).

➡ Headless execution
➡ It supports a variety of browsers.
➡ It also assists the user in decoding network items.
➡ Cross-browser web automation is supported.
➡ We can upload and download files.
➡ Supports web components using shadow-piercing selectors.
➡ Allows parallel execution
➡ Debugging in time is simple.

1️⃣ From the marketplace, get the VS Code extension.
2️⃣ If you don't already have the Playwright Test npm package installed in your project, or if you're starting from scratch, the "Install Playwright" action will get you started.
3️⃣ Choose the browsers you want to use by default, and you can modify them later to add or configure the browsers used.
4️⃣ If you have [Playwright Test] installed, the extension will detect it and load the [Playwright Test] projects into Visual Studio Code. By default, it will select the first project as a run profile, but you may adjust this behavior within the test explorer to run a single test in several or different browsers.

very wonderful video sir, please share more videos. thank you

This is a great introduction to Playwright, and for sure, this will be a great series on Playwright🤩 I have one doubt, I'm trying to execute a test multiple times using a loop. The Playwright Testrunner is not identifying the test inside the loop. It gives a message "no tests found". Any ideas on what I can do?

A wonderful video with a clear and crisp presentation 🙌 Can you help me understand how I can add custom matches to Playwright with Typescript support?

Don't use Playwright > 1.20.1. There is a bug in click action. It got fixed in 1.25 (not sure got released or not at the time of posting this message). When that fix arrives, you can use 1.25. In between, the versions you pick may look good and work fine, but when you run bulk of your tests, this bug may precipitate.

Hi. I am at very initial stage of learning playwright. I'm having extensive manual testing experience of 5 years and shine essence of automation.

But now I have decided to have my hands on automation but I am very confused as to how to start? Should I follow a tutorial only or read the documentation to know about all the functions that it offers or simply since a problem and do my research for training that problem and learn during resolving the issue?
I feel lost even when I have followed some part of any tutorial and try to solve the problem that I have.
