You can debug web applications without restarting by using a persistent js_repl session. This maintains Playwright handles across iterations for continuous, fast UI debugging and functional QA checks.

Yes, Playwright supports Electron application debugging alongside web apps. It uses js_repl to maintain persistent browser handles, allowing iterative functional and visual QA without environment restarts.

Persistent UI debugging retains Playwright handles across iterations via js_repl. It prevents the toolchain from restarting, enabling continuous visual inspections and functional tests during web and Electron development.

Yes, js_repl must be enabled in your Codex session. Playwright interactive requires both the playwright and js_repl dependencies to maintain persistent handles for iterative functional and visual QA.

The best way is using a persistent js_repl session with Playwright. It maintains browser handles across iterations, allowing you to run successive visual QA checks without restarting the debugging environment.

Sessions lose state when handles are not persisted. Using js_repl with Playwright maintains the same handles across iterations, preventing state loss and avoiding toolchain restarts during continuous UI debugging.
