Reviewer scorecard
“Playwright has surpassed Cypress in capabilities. Multi-browser, auto-waiting, and trace viewer are all better in Playwright.”
“Open-source CMS you can self-host. The visual content-type builder and plugin system are well-designed.”
“Was the best E2E framework but Playwright has taken the lead. The cloud pricing for CI is expensive.”
“For teams that need a self-hosted CMS, Strapi is the most mature open-source option. Large community.”
“The test runner UI and time-travel debugging are the most intuitive of any testing tool.”
“The admin panel is intuitive for content editors. Media library and internationalization are built in.”
