Playwright Automation

Experience: 3 to 5 Years

Primary Tech Stack: JavaScript / TypeScript, Python, Playwright, REST APIs, Git, CI/CD

• Custom Code Development: Design, write, and maintain modular JavaScript/TypeScript and Python functions that interface directly with Playwrights core API (page, browserContext, locator)
• Edge-Case Automation: Resolve complex web interactions including shadow DOMs, nested iFrames, dynamic canvas elements, and custom web components using programmatic fallback scripts
• API & Storage Interception: Write custom scripts to bypass UI bottlenecks using Playwright’s API request context, local/session storage injection (addInitScript), and network route interception (pageroute)
• Framework Architecture & Reusability: Package low-level Playwright execution routines into reusable, well-documented, clean functions with robust exception handling for non-technical QA members
• API Automation & Integration: Build and maintain scalable REST API automation suites using Playwright’s native APIRequestContext, handling dynamic payload generation, status assertion, schema validation, and header/authentication setup
• Hybrid Web & API Testing: Implement hybrid UI/API test workflows—leveraging backend REST endpoints for rapid pre-test state setup, database seeding, and post-test cleanup to eliminate brittle, slow UI setup steps
• CI/CD Integration: Integrate, run, and optimize test execution across headful/headless runner nodes in continuous integration pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Docker)
• Code Reviews & Quality: Conduct code reviews for custom scripts, ensuring adherence to JavaScript ES6+ and Python best practices and asynchronous programming standards
