Reviewer scorecard
“Vendor lock-in concerns. Hard to migrate once you're committed.”
“Playwright is becoming the standard for browser automation beyond testing — AI agents, scraping, and verification.”
“The API design is thoughtful. Integrates well with existing stacks.”
“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.”
