Playwright

Cross-browser E2E testing

FreeCode review, testing & securityplaywright.dev

What it is

End-to-end test framework covering Chromium, WebKit and Firefox on Windows, Linux and macOS, bundling a runner, assertions, test isolation and parallelisation. Auto-waiting eliminates most flaky timing failures. It ships a trace viewer for post-mortem debugging, codegen for recording tests, and an MCP server for agent-driven browser control.

Why it earns a slot

The only layer that proves the app actually works end to end. AI-written code routinely type-checks and passes unit tests while the real login or checkout flow is broken; a browser test is what catches that.
