Maintain a persistent Playwright session for UI debugging by using `js_repl` to preserve browser contexts and pages across code changes. This approach keeps handles active, allowing you to reload pages immediately without restarting the full toolchain.

Yes, Playwright supports persistent sessions for Electron applications. You can facilitate both functional and visual QA by maintaining Playwright handles specifically for Electron apps, enabling fast iterative debugging without constant relaunching.

The best way to speed up iterative UI testing after code changes is maintaining Playwright handles across iterations. By preserving browser contexts, you can simply reload the page to see CSS or JavaScript updates instantly, reducing development cycle time.

Yes, you can perform visual QA and functional testing within the same persistent Playwright session. By maintaining browser handles across code changes, the workflow supports both testing types seamlessly without needing to restart the application instance.

Restarting the entire Playwright toolchain slows down web development because it destroys browser contexts and pages, requiring full application relaunches. Maintaining persistent handles avoids this overhead, enabling immediate page reloads after code modifications.
