Playwright has rapidly become the leading end-to-end testing framework, overtaking Cypress in many teams. Built by Microsoft, it supports all major browsers (Chromium, Firefox, WebKit) with a single API, enabling true cross-browser testing. Playwright's auto-waiting mechanism eliminates flaky tests by automatically waiting for elements to be actionable before interacting with them. The trace viewer provides a visual timeline of test execution for debugging failures. Codegen records your browser interactions and generates test code automatically. Playwright supports JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, .NET, and Java.
