Reviewer scorecard
“Playwright has surpassed Cypress in capabilities. Multi-browser, auto-waiting, and trace viewer are all better in Playwright.”
“50x faster than ESLint with zero config. Catches the most impactful lint rules without the plugin complexity.”
“Was the best E2E framework but Playwright has taken the lead. The cloud pricing for CI is expensive.”
“The speed makes linting instantaneous in editors and CI. The focused rule set means less noise than full ESLint.”
“The test runner UI and time-travel debugging are the most intuitive of any testing tool.”
“Rust-based linting joins SWC, Rspack, and Biome in the JavaScript Rust toolchain revolution.”
