analyze-test-codebase

What problem does it solve?

Scans and analyzes an existing Playwright test codebase to understand its conventions, configuration, and patterns before writing new tests. It outputs a structured report that helps engineers plan improvements without modifying tests or running live apps.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Locate Playwright configuration files (playwright.config.ts, playwright.config.js, or playwright.config.mjs) across the project.
• Extract configuration details such as baseURL, testDir, projects, use options (viewport, headless, trace, screenshot), webServer, and globalSetup/globalTeardown.
• Scan the test directory structure to count tests, identify naming conventions, and understand organization strategies.
• Detect common testing patterns (locator strategies, wait strategies, test structure, data management, Page Objects, auth handling, and custom fixtures).
• Check for supporting infrastructure like fixtures, pages, environment files, CI configs, npm scripts, HARs, and snapshots to inform coverage.

Quick Start

Run this skill from the project root to generate a concise report of your Playwright setup.
