The Playwright Test Automation Training is a practical, instructor-led program designed to provide participants with the skills required to build, execute, debug, and maintain modern web application test automation using Playwright. The program covers Playwright's core automation capabilities, browser interactions, locators, assertions, test organization, debugging, reporting, cross-browser testing, and test optimization.

The training can be delivered using TypeScript/JavaScript or Python, allowing participants to work with Playwright in the programming language most relevant to their existing development or testing environment. Core Playwright concepts remain common across both approaches, while demonstrations and hands-on activities can be aligned with the selected language track.

The program combines instructor-led explanations, demonstrations, guided practical activities, troubleshooting scenarios, and hands-on exercises to help participants develop practical Playwright automation skills.

Basic understanding of software testing and web application testing concepts.
Familiarity with web browsers, web pages, and basic web application workflows.
Basic programming or scripting knowledge in TypeScript/JavaScript or Python.
Familiarity with basic concepts such as variables, functions, conditions, and loops.
Basic understanding of HTML and web elements is recommended.
No prior Playwright experience is required.

After completing the training, participants will be able to independently develop and execute Playwright-based web automation tests using their selected programming language track. They will have practical knowledge of creating reliable test scripts, handling real-world browser interactions, structuring automation projects, debugging failures, generating test evidence, performing cross-browser testing, and applying best practices for scalable and maintainable test automation.

Participants will also understand how Playwright can be incorporated into a broader software testing workflow and will be equipped with a foundation for progressing toward advanced Playwright automation, framework development, and CI/CD-based test execution.

Upon completing the program, participants will be able to:

Understand Playwright architecture, capabilities, and supported browsers.
Set up and configure Playwright projects using TypeScript/JavaScript or Python.
Create and execute automated browser tests.
Identify and work with web elements using effective locator strategies.
Apply auto-waiting, synchronization, and assertions.
Automate forms, buttons, dropdowns, dialogs, frames, popups, and multiple pages.
Work with browser contexts and perform cross-browser testing.

Organize tests using reusable components, fixtures, and appropriate test structures.
Apply Page Object Model concepts for maintainable test automation.
Capture screenshots, videos, and traces for troubleshooting.
Debug failed test cases using Playwright's debugging capabilities.
Manage test data, configurations, retries, and parallel execution.
Identify and address common flaky-test scenarios.

ProgNXT Certificate of Completion will be awarded to participants who complete the course and pass the evaluations.
