Automate web application health checks using Playwright to detect regressions by verifying page loads, essential elements, and navigation across modern SPAs. The runner script executes these validations quickly to reduce manual QA effort.

Run end-to-end tests with Playwright by executing the scripts/playwright_runner.py against your target URL. This automates E2E validation across routes, APIs, and UI components for both multi-page apps and single-page applications.

Perform accessibility checks using Playwright to identify missing alt attributes and labels on web pages. The runner automates these accessibility-oriented validations alongside standard E2E tests to ensure UI components meet basic compliance.

Python and the Playwright package are required to run automated web app tests. Install dependencies with pip install playwright, then execute playwright install chromium to set up the browser engine needed for the test runner.

This Playwright runner works for quick sanity checks in CI pipelines by automating lightweight health checks and E2E validations across routes and APIs. It verifies deployments and catches regressions early without manual QA intervention.
