Advanced Playwright

Hi everyone.

Welcome to the Advanced Playwright training at Test Automation University.

My name is Renata, and I'm honored to be your instructor.

I am from Brazil, and nowadays, I live in San Francisco in California.

Playwright is an amazing framework that enables reliable end-to-end tests for modern web applications.

If you're not familiar with it or want to be on the same page for this training, I invite you to take a look at the Introduction to Playwright here at Test Automation University as well.

The link is in the resources section below.

This advanced training is one more important step in the foundation process of working with Playwright.

It'll allow you to increase maintainability and reusability of your test suite, which is essential at any corporation.

As usual, we'll have a lot of fun throughout the six chapters.

The idea here is to speed up not only your test suite, but also your test development.

In chapter 1, we'll learn about Authentication and see how to store the sign in state to be able to reuse it and make the test faster.

In chapter 2, we will learn about Dynamic Page Objects - a way to simply create page objects for whichever scenario you need and also, how to use Fixtures to speed up and reuse flows in your tests.

In chapter 3, we'll learn about API interaction, and ways to use the APIs to help with data creation and management.

In chapter 4, we'll see more ways of Data Management through JSON files, APIs, and even mock responses.

In chapter 5, we'll see about Visual Regression with Applitools and learn ways to make our tests more efficient.

And finally, in chapter 6, we'll learn about Continuous Integration and Observability, ways to add our tests to the pipeline and inform the whole team whenever our tests fail.
