Automation Testing Playwright


Request for price


Length: 5 day (40 hours)

 

This course is a hands-on journey into the Microsoft Playwright ecosystem. Unlike traditional tools, Playwright offers native support for all modern rendering engines (Chromium, WebKit, and Firefox) with a single API.

The curriculum moves from "Hello World" scripts to building a Hybrid Automation Framework featuring UI + API testing, auto-waiting logic, and AI-driven self-healing locators. You will learn to eliminate "flakiness" and integrate your tests into a fully automated CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions and Docker.

Basic Programming Logic: Familiarity with JavaScript or TypeScript (most common) or Java/Python. Many courses include a "JS for Testers" crash course.

Web Fundamentals: Basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and how the Document Object Model (DOM) works.

Node.js Environment: Ability to install Node.js and work with a code editor like Visual Studio Code (VS Code).

Manual Testing Mindset: A fundamental grasp of the Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC) and test case design.

QA Engineers & Manual Testers: Looking to learn the most in-demand automation tool of 2026.

Selenium/Cypress Users: Testers wanting to migrate to a faster, more stable framework with multi-tab and iframe support.

SDETs & Developers: Who need to implement robust end-to-end (E2E) integration tests for modern React, Angular, or Vue applications.

DevOps Engineers: Aiming to build stable, containerized testing stages in CI/CD pipelines.

Course objectives

After completing this course, students will be able to:

    • Architect Modern Suites: Build a scalable Page Object Model (POM) framework that is easy to maintain.
    • Eliminate Flakiness: Master Playwright’s Auto-waiting and Web-first Assertions to create rock-solid tests.
    • Perform Multi-Layer Testing: Combine UI and API automation within a single test script for faster data setup and validation.
    • Advanced Debugging: Use the Trace Viewer and Playwright Inspector to time-travel through test failures.
    • Implement DevOps Best Practices: Run tests in parallel, execute them in Docker containers, and trigger them via GitHub Actions.
    • Leverage AI (2026 Update): Use AI-powered locators and Playwright’s Codegen to accelerate script development.

Course outlines

    • Phase 1: The Modern Foundation
      • Intro to Playwright: Why Playwright is replacing Selenium in 2026.
      • Setup: Node.js, VS Code, and Playwright Extension.
      • Codegen: Using the test generator to record and refine your first script.
    • Phase 2: Core Playwright Mechanics
      • Locators: Mastering getByRole, getByText, and advanced CSS/XPath strategies.
      • Interactions: Handling Pop-ups, Iframes, Shadow DOM, and multiple Browser Contexts.
      • Synchronization: Understanding why you almost never need thread.sleep or manual waits.
    • Phase 3: Framework & Integration
      • Design Patterns: Page Object Model (POM) and Fixtures.
      • Data-Driven Testing: Using JSON/Excel for parameterized testing.
      • API Testing: Sending GET/POST requests and intercepting network calls.
    • Phase 4: Scaling & Reporting
      • Reporting: Configuring HTML, Allure, and video-recorded reports.
      • CI/CD & Docker: Running headless tests in the cloud.
      • Visual Testing: Snapshot comparisons for UI regression.
