Reviewer scorecard

Skeptic
80/100 · ship

This is the kind of tool that makes you wonder how you worked without it.

80/100 · ship

Replaced Cypress in most serious projects. Multi-browser support and the trace viewer are genuine advantages.

Builder
80/100 · ship

The free tier is genuinely usable. Rare for this category.

80/100 · ship

Best E2E testing framework. Auto-wait, trace viewer, and codegen eliminate the biggest pain points of browser testing.

Futurist
No panel take
80/100 · ship

Playwright is becoming the standard for browser automation beyond testing — AI agents, scraping, and verification.
