SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Manual web application testing is slow, brittle, and hard to reproduce across environments. This Skill provides a structured, automated approach to validate web apps using real browser states and headless scripts, reducing flaky tests and accelerating feedback.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Chrome integration for interactive, authenticated testing with real browser state
  • Surf CLI workflow for autonomous verification and artifact generation
  • Playwright scripts for CI/CD, headless automation, and reproducible runs

Quick Start

To get started, choose a testing mode: use Chrome integration for interactive debugging, Surf CLI for autonomous validation, or Playwright for CI/CD pipelines. Ensure required tools are available (Google Chrome, Surf, and Python with Playwright). Then run a simple task like testing a login flow on a local app by prompting Claude Code to navigate to the login page, fill in credentials, submit, and verify the resulting state.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate web app testing across Chrome, Surf, and Playwright?

Automated web app testing across these tools is guided by a structured decision tree covering interactive, headless, and CI/CD scenarios. You can select Chrome for real browser state, Surf CLI for autonomous verification, or Playwright scripts for reproducible pipeline runs.

What is the best way to reduce flaky tests during browser automation?

Reducing flaky tests in browser automation is achieved by using authentic browser states and structured headless scripts. This approach replaces slow, brittle manual validation with reproducible runs guided by clear best practices and a defined decision tree.

Can I use Playwright for headless automation in a CI/CD pipeline?

Playwright is fully supported for headless automation and CI/CD pipelines. It enables reproducible test runs that validate web applications without requiring an interactive browser session, making it ideal for continuous integration workflows.

Do I need Google Chrome installed to run interactive browser testing?

Google Chrome is required for interactive, authenticated testing with real browser state. The skill uses Chrome integration specifically for interactive debugging scenarios where maintaining authentication and real browser sessions is necessary.

How does Surf CLI differ from Playwright for web testing?

Surf CLI is used for autonomous verification and artifact generation, whereas Playwright is designed for headless automation and reproducible CI/CD runs. The skill provides a decision tree to help you choose between these modes based on your testing needs.

What are the limitations of automated browser testing for modern web applications?

Automated browser testing relies on standard tooling like Google Chrome, Surf, and Python with Playwright. Limitations arise when these specific dependencies are unavailable, as the structured validation scenarios require this exact environment setup to execute properly.
