Reviewer scorecard
“Too expensive for what it offers. Plenty of open-source alternatives.”
“Playwright is becoming the standard for browser automation beyond testing — AI agents, scraping, and verification.”
“Fast, reliable, and the docs are actually good. Ship.”
“Best E2E testing framework. Auto-wait, trace viewer, and codegen eliminate the biggest pain points of browser testing.”
“Replaced Cypress in most serious projects. Multi-browser support and the trace viewer are genuine advantages.”
