I've found playwright more useful: https://github.com/microsoft/playwright

It's an alternative to Cypress and from what I remember, it has a much better API.




We wrote "cypress for playwright" recently in order to use it internally and decided to open source it.

Basically we took a bunch of Testim code for screenshots/console logs/network etc and made a package out of it at https://github.com/testimio/root-cause

It's amazing how much you can get done just combining open source tools together (like sauce's HAR viewer)!


I've seen a few people say this, but looking at the repository and documentation it seems more like an alternative to puppeteer for browser automation. I don't see anything in particular about testing?


Yes we can consider playwright as alternative to puppeteer . But it also got more features involved , I would say it is an upgraded version of puppeteer and it has also got Webkit support.


I just started using playwright 2 weeks ago. It’s great so far.


You should try inglor's open source tool called Root cause for simplifying and automating screenshot capture.
