FAQPage Schema
How do I automate browser testing against my local dev server?

Playwright browser automation supports taking screenshots, filling forms, navigating pages, validating links, and checking responsive design across multiple viewports. You describe the testing task and it generates a script to execute these interactions.

Do I need Node.js installed to run Playwright automation scripts?

This Skill handles browser automation by generating a Playwright script in /tmp and executing it with a universal run.js file. You simply describe your testing task, and it handles the dev server detection and script execution automatically.

Can I test login flows and validate links on external sites with Playwright?

This Skill merges optional environment-configured headers for automated requests during browser testing. This allows you to customize the HTTP headers sent by Playwright scripts when interacting with local dev servers or external sites.

What's the best way to check responsive design across multiple viewports?

Known limitations include the dependency on Node.js and Playwright, and execution of generated scripts in the /tmp directory. It is designed for automating browser testing tasks like screenshots and form filling rather than permanent test suite management.
