Playwright Pro

Production-grade Playwright testing toolkit for AI coding agents.

Available Commands

When installed as a Claude Code plugin, these are available as /pw: commands:

Command	What it does
/pw:init	Set up Playwright — detects framework, generates config, CI, first test
/pw:generate <spec>	Generate tests from user story, URL, or component
/pw:review	Review tests for anti-patterns and coverage gaps
/pw:fix <test>	Diagnose and fix failing or flaky tests
/pw:migrate	Migrate from Cypress or Selenium to Playwright
/pw:coverage	Analyze what's tested vs. what's missing
/pw:testrail	Sync with TestRail — read cases, push results
/pw:browserstack	Run on BrowserStack, pull cross-browser reports
/pw:report	Generate test report in your preferred format

Golden Rules

1. getByRole() over CSS/XPath — resilient to markup changes
2. Never page.waitForTimeout() — use web-first assertions
3. expect(locator) auto-retries; expect(await locator.textContent()) does not
4. Isolate every test — no shared state between tests
5. baseURL in config — zero hardcoded URLs
6. Retries: 2 in CI, 0 locally
7. Traces: 'on-first-retry' — rich debugging without slowdown
8. Fixtures over globals — test.extend() for shared state
9. One behavior per test — multiple related assertions are fine
10. Mock external services only — never mock your own app

Locator Priority

1. getByRole()        — buttons, links, headings, form elements
2. getByLabel()       — form fields with labels
3. getByText()        — non-interactive text
4. getByPlaceholder() — inputs with placeholder
5. getByTestId()      — when no semantic option exists
6. page.locator()     — CSS/XPath as last resort
