What kind of issues does the check skill detect?

It detects 31 specific Playwright violations including hardcoded timeouts, brittle selectors (like XPath), improper locators, and non-web-first assertions.

What are the severity levels used in the report?

The skill categorizes issues into ERROR (must fix to prevent flakiness), WARN (should fix to avoid risk), and INFO (suggestions for better readability and structure).

Does this skill execute my Playwright tests?

No, this skill is for static analysis and linting. It analyzes your code without running it. To execute tests, you should use the standard 'npx playwright test' command.

Can it automatically fix the issues found in my tests?

Yes, by using the --fix flag, the skill can suggest and apply automated corrections for many common violations, such as adding visibility filters to locators.

How do I limit the scan to a specific part of my project?

You can provide a directory path as an argument, for example: '/check ./tests/authentication' to only scan files in that specific folder.

セキュリティとテスト

Scans Playwright test files for architectural and coding best practice violations to reduce flakiness and improve test maintainability.

This skill empowers developers to maintain high-quality Playwright test suites by performing static analysis against 31 industry-standard best practice rules. It automatically detects critical issues such as hardcoded timeouts, brittle XPath selectors, and non-web-first assertions, providing clear explanations and suggested fixes for every violation. Whether used during code reviews, after generating new tests, or as part of routine maintenance, it ensures test stability, improves execution speed, and helps eliminate the most common causes of flakiness in end-to-end testing workflows.
