Description

Introduction
Playwright with TypeScript: Fast, Reliable End-to-End Testing provides a comprehensive, hands-on introduction to building robust automation frameworks using TypeScript and Playwright. This training focuses on writing strongly typed, maintainable tests while leveraging Playwright’s powerful cross-browser capabilities. Participants will learn best practices for structuring test suites, implementing Page Objects, enabling parallel execution, debugging issues, integrating CI/CD pipelines and building scalable automation for modern web applications.

Prerequisites
Basic understanding of JavaScript or TypeScript
Familiarity with HTML, CSS and web page behavior
Basic command-line usage
Optional: Exposure to testing frameworks such as Jest, Mocha or Selenium
