Guided lessons

Learn the engineering thinking

Lesson 1

Project setup and first test

Understand Playwright Test structure, configuration and how a test moves through arrange, act and assert.

Lesson 2

Locators that survive UI change

Prefer role, label and test-id based locators over brittle CSS and XPath chains.

Lesson 3

Web-first assertions

Let Playwright wait for observable conditions rather than adding arbitrary sleeps.

Lesson 4

Fixtures and reusable setup

Share authentication, test data and environment setup without creating hidden coupling.

Lesson 5

Debugging and traces

Use trace viewer, screenshots, videos and step-level evidence to diagnose failures quickly.

Hands-on practice

Do something with what you learned

Do not just tick these mentally. Write the query, create the test matrix, refactor the code, or document the decision. Practical evidence is the point.
