Documentation
Playwright CI/CD
Ship reliable tests in every pipeline — CI-specific patterns for speed, stability, and actionable reports.
9 guides covering CI/CD setup, parallel execution, containerized runs, reporting, and infrastructure patterns for all major CI providers.
Golden Rules
retries: 2in CI only — surface flakiness in pipelines, not locallytraces: 'on-first-retry'— capture rich debugging artifacts without slowing every run- Shard across runners —
--shard=N/Msplits tests evenly; scale horizontally, not vertically - Cache browser binaries —
~/.cache/ms-playwrightkeyed on Playwright version - Upload artifacts on failure — traces, screenshots, and HTML reports as CI artifacts
- Use the official Docker image —
mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v*has all OS deps pre-installed - Global setup for auth — run login once in
globalSetup, reusestorageStateacross workers - Fail fast, debug later — keep CI runs short; use trace viewer and HTML reports to investigate

TestingThis skill provides comprehensive knowledge for implementing Cloudflare Cron Triggers to schedule Workers using cron expressions. It covers setting up periodic tasks, maintenance jobs, and automated workflows while handling common issues like invalid cron expressions and timezone problems. Developers can use it for configuring scheduled handlers, testing cron triggers, and integrating with Workflows and Green Compute.
webapp-testing
TestingThis Claude Skill provides a Playwright-based toolkit for testing local web applications through Python scripts. It enables frontend verification, UI debugging, screenshot capture, and log viewing while managing server lifecycles. Use it for browser automation tasks but run scripts directly rather than reading their source code to avoid context pollution.
finishing-a-development-branch
TestingThis skill helps developers complete finished work by verifying tests pass and then presenting structured integration options. It guides the workflow for merging, creating PRs, or cleaning up branches after implementation is done. Use it when your code is ready and tested to systematically finalize the development process.
