name	open-testing-convert-playwright
description	Convert Playwright tests to and from Eggplant (SenseTalk), OpenTest.AI, Testers.AI Recorder, Testers.AI Dynamic, Selenium, and Cypress. Handles Playwright TypeScript/JavaScript (primary), Python, Java, and .NET bindings; `@playwright/test` runner idioms (`test`, `test.describe`, `test.beforeEach`, fixtures, `test.step`, `expect`). Use whenever the user wants to migrate a Playwright suite, translate a single spec, or round-trip Playwright through another framework. MANDATORY TRIGGERS — "convert Playwright", "Playwright to Selenium", "Playwright to Cypress", "Playwright to Eggplant", "migrate Playwright", "translate playwright spec", "port Playwright", "Playwright → OpenTest.AI", "Playwright to Testers.AI", or any mention of Playwright alongside any of the supported targets.

Convert — Playwright

Converts tests from Playwright to any supported target, and to Playwright from another framework. Defers orchestration, target semantics, and cross-framework rules to the open-testing-convert master skill.

When to use

Trigger when:

• The user references a Playwright codebase, spec file, or snippet and asks to migrate or translate it.
• The user asks to convert to Playwright from Selenium, Cypress, a Testers.AI recording, or a natural-language format (OpenTest.AI, Testers.AI Dynamic).
• The user uploads a .spec.ts, .spec.js, .test.ts, .test.js, .py, .java, or .cs file containing @playwright/test, playwright.chromium.launch, page.locator, page.getByRole, await page.goto, etc.
• A playwright.config.ts / playwright.config.js is present.

How to use

1. Read the master orchestrator first. Open ../open-testing-convert/SKILL.md and follow its step order (detect source → detect target → resolve language → delegate to this skill → read target primer → validate output).
2. Confirm target and language. The master's language-policy.md governs language choice (default: preserve source language unless the user requests otherwise). For Playwright the source language is one of TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Java, or .NET/C#.
3. Read the relevant target primer:
   • ../open-testing-convert/reference/targets/eggplant.md
   • ../open-testing-convert/reference/targets/opentestai.md
   • ../open-testing-convert/reference/targets/testersai-recorder.md
   • ../open-testing-convert/reference/targets/testersai-dynamic.md
   • For Selenium reverse: consult ../open-testing-convert-selenium/reference/source-profile.md for emission shape in each language.
   • For Cypress: shared/wait-strategies.md §Cypress and shared/assertion-mapping.md Cypress column.
4. Read this skill's reference files:
   • reference/source-profile.md — what Playwright tests look like across bindings.
   • reference/extraction.md — how to extract canonical test intent from Playwright code.
   • reference/mappings.md — per-target translation tables and worked examples.
5. Read shared references as needed: open-testing-convert/reference/shared/{locator-mapping,wait-strategies,assertion-mapping,lifecycle-mapping}.md.
6. Emit the converted test(s) according to the target primer's Emission Checklist. Produce a preamble summarising: source file, detected binding/runner, target, language choice, any TODOs.

Scope

• @playwright/test runner (v1.x) — primary.
• Library-only usage (playwright without the test runner) — supported; lifecycle must be synthesized from the user's own scaffolding (Mocha/Jest/etc.).
• Playwright for Python (playwright.sync_api / playwright.async_api) and pytest-playwright.
• Playwright for Java (com.microsoft.playwright.*).
• Playwright for .NET (Microsoft.Playwright.*).
• Fixtures, parameterised projects, test.use({ ... }) overrides, and test.step() annotations.

Out of scope (delegate to sibling skills)

• Playwright-BDD / playwright-bdd integration with Cucumber: use open-testing-convert-cucumber (it invokes this skill for the step-implementation layer).
• Component testing (@playwright/experimental-ct-react and friends): emit as-is with a preamble flag; component-scoped behaviour does not map cleanly to Selenium/Cypress/Eggplant.
