What is Playwright
Playwright is an amazing tool for automating the
web application, API, and Mobile testing.

It’s an open-source library that Testers can use to


automate web apps. Whether you’re testing a
simple single-page or complex multi-page
application

So, what makes the Playwright stand out?

Playwright allows you to test your app on


macOS, Linux, and Windows without making
code changes.
It supports popular browsers like MS Edge,
Chrome, Firefox, and Safari, ensuring a seamless
experience across all platforms.
Managing browser contexts becomes a piece of
cake with Playwright, allowing you to test
complex scenarios involving multiple tabs or
windows.
What’s impressive is that Playwright supports
multiple programming languages, including
Java, and provides an intuitive configuration
setup.

Benefits of Test Automation with
Playwright and Java

Element Locators: Easily identify web elements


using CSS selectors, XPath, and text content,
among others. This simplifies interaction with
specific elements on a page.
Assertions: Verify expected results with
assertion methods, including checking element
presence, attributes, and values.
Interacting with Web Elements: Seamlessly
interact with elements using intuitive API
methods for clicking, typing, selecting, and
scrolling.
Handling Wait Times: Built-in methods handle
wait times, such as waiting for element visibility,
page navigation, and network requests to
complete.
Screenshots and Videos: Playwright provides
built-in capabilities to capture screenshots and
record videos during test execution. This is
valuable for debugging and analyzing test
results.
