What is the recommended selector priority in this skill?

The skill prioritizes user-facing locators like ARIA roles and labels first, followed by explicit test IDs, treating fragile CSS and XPath selectors as a last resort.

How does it handle complex multi-page workflows?

It provides standardized patterns for handling new tabs, asynchronous navigation, and waiting for specific network states to ensure scripts remain synchronized with the browser.

Does this provide the full Playwright API documentation?

No, this skill focuses on implementation patterns and best practices. For raw API documentation, it is recommended to use a dedicated documentation tool like the context7 MCP.

How does this skill help reduce test flakiness?

It enforces the use of web-first assertions and auto-waiting patterns, ensuring elements are fully interactive before execution and retrying checks automatically until they pass or timeout.

Can I use this for web scraping as well as testing?

Yes, it includes specific patterns for efficient data extraction, such as using evaluateAll for batch processing of elements in a single round-trip to the browser.
