I have used Selenium for several years to automate UI tests, one of our new devOps guys used to be a QA and he introduced me to Playwright recently. On the surface it seems like Playwright solves a bunch of the issues that I’ve had with Selenium. Built in waits, a test builder that’s actually useful for grabbing stubborn locators, etc. So I then presented the advantages to my manager while making sure to let her know that Selenium can still be used so we don’t have to re-write all the existing automation. However, she’s hesitant to make any changes, partly because playwright is so new and there’s not as much community support. I’m curious if there are more advantages to playwright that people have come across while using it to strengthen my argument? Thanks in advance.
