Reviewer scorecard
“Best E2E testing framework. Auto-wait, trace viewer, and codegen eliminate the biggest pain points of browser testing.”
“The best local development experience for edge functions. Miniflare emulates the entire Cloudflare platform locally.”
“Replaced Cypress in most serious projects. Multi-browser support and the trace viewer are genuine advantages.”
“Local emulation of D1, R2, KV, and Durable Objects means you develop at full speed without deploys.”
“Playwright is becoming the standard for browser automation beyond testing — AI agents, scraping, and verification.”
“Local-first development tools for edge platforms will become the standard. Wrangler leads this pattern.”
