About the Talk
These days, it seems like everyone is starting to write their tests in Playwright, the hot new web test framework. However, while any new tool offers nifty new features to improve the test development experience, we still need to remember principles of proper testing. Anyone can scribble a script, but skilled testers build scalable tests that can run across different configurations without tripping over test data.
In this workshop, let's go beyond the basics and learn how to write robust Playwright tests together. We will transform a basic set of tests with page objects, custom fixtures, proper data management, and even distributed execution with LambdaTest. This will be an advanced workshop, so study up on Playwright basics and TypeScript first! All example code will be provided to help you along. By the end of the workshop, you'll be a pro Playwright automationeer!
