Install Playwright QA
Pick your agent. Every command is ready to paste.
npx skills add testdino-hq/playwright-skill --skill playwright-qaThe open skills CLI detects your agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and 70+ more) and installs to the right folder. Add -g to install globally.
01
Install it
Run the command above, or upload the folder in Claude.
02
Ask naturally
Describe the task. Your agent loads playwright-qa when the request matches its description.

Name it if needed
If it does not trigger, say “use the playwright-qa skill”. In Codex, type $playwright-qa.
Playwright QA Workflows
For QA engineers: the work around the test code. What to test, how to report what broke, how to automate a manual suite, and how to judge a test.
4 guides. They build on the core/ guides for the Playwright APIs and link to them rather than repeating them.
Guide Index
| What you're doing | Guide |
|---|---|
| Ticket / PRD / acceptance criteria → test cases, risk ranking, test plan for the generator | test-design.md |
| Failing test → app bug, test bug or flake; bug report; what to do with the test meanwhile | bug-reports.md |
| Manual test cases or a CSV export → Playwright specs with case IDs | manual-to-automated.md |
| Review Playwright tests or a PR; lint rules; prove a test can fail | test-review.md |
Golden Rules
- Boundaries and negative paths first: bugs live at the edges of a rule, not in the happy path.
- Lowest layer that proves it: rules at API level, wiring and critical flows in E2E.
- Classify before filing: app bug, test bug, flake or environment; the trace usually decides.
- Frequency is a number:
--repeat-each=20gives N/20, never "sometimes". - Known bug →
test.fail()with an issue link, never a deleted test or a loosened assertion. - A test that can't fail guards nothing: break the feature once and watch it fail.
- Keep case IDs on automated tests so results map back to the manual suite.
Tips for Playwright QA
- • Start a fresh session after installing so your agent picks up the new skill.
- • It is part of a pack with 8 skills. Install only the ones you need with --skill to keep triggers precise.
- • If two skills overlap, mention the one you want by name.
