Do I need to write the server management logic myself?

No, the skill provides black-box helper scripts that handle server startup and shutdown, allowing you to focus purely on the Playwright automation logic.

Can I test applications that require both a frontend and a backend?

Yes, the included with_server.py helper script supports launching multiple servers simultaneously before executing your test logic.

How does this skill handle dynamic JavaScript applications?

It follows a 'reconnaissance-then-action' pattern, specifically waiting for the 'networkidle' state to ensure all JS is executed before inspecting selectors or taking screenshots.

What is the webapp-testing Claude Code Skill?

It is a specialized toolkit that allows Claude to run Playwright-based automation against local web applications, including managing the underlying dev servers.

Does it support visual debugging?

Yes, you can programmatically capture screenshots of the browser state to verify layouts or debug visual elements that are hard to describe in text.

Automates end-to-end testing and UI debugging for local web applications using Playwright and server lifecycle management.

소개

The webapp-testing skill provides a comprehensive toolkit for Claude to interact with, debug, and test local web applications via Playwright. It simplifies the complexity of managing local development servers—including multi-service architectures like frontend and backend pairs—through integrated helper scripts that handle server lifecycles automatically. By employing a 'reconnaissance-then-action' pattern, the skill enables precise DOM inspection, screenshot capture, and reliable interaction with dynamic web components, ensuring high-fidelity testing and troubleshooting without polluting the AI's context window with large script files.
