Approach
Feasibility Prototypes
playwright inspector has better information for a particular element what are the best selectors.
(i.e. for buttons → xpath, for anchor text → text )playwright calculation for css selector query is better than GTP recorder?
→ investigate if we can steal css selector query code from playwright codebase
playwright code generator - contains recorder, selects elements and generates the test scripts.
investigate if we can use and trigger the playwright code generator
only useful if we end up using the generated code to the user
NOT USEFUL FOR NO CODE FEATURES
USEFUL FOR CODE GEN / AI GEN / IMPORT CODE
Business model test - ???
Technology test - ???
playwright test results - exposes APIs for show test results of the session. It has a UI to show test results during execution.
playwright UI mode - has a dashboard, pick dashboards, see variables, see logs etc.
investigate to see if we use playwright UI mode as a debugger window feature.
Scheduler / CI/CD invocation
Investigate how to use playwright to be triggered by CI/CD from our environment. Are all the parameters the same? are there new ones? how can you run scripts in parallel?Desktop Application Executor
Trial to see if we can wrap our execution service and run it locally on tester’s PC.OnPrem Configuration
Investigate how to trigger scripts and dependency when everything is on a local server.Code Overhaul
mitigation: investigate playwright wrapper
Implementation approaches
Have Playwright and Selenium available in parallel
add a new set of services in backend to execute selenium
Have a Playwright Adapter that meets Selenium functional spec
Create independent application which communicates via websocket
Seperate springboot project or angular or react project
rebuild the record, executor part
connect to playwright report data and create our own view
Action ItemsScr
Playwright Wrapper:
Investigate if we can create a wrapper around playwright that respects Selenium methods, including remote executions
