add-playwright-test

add-playwright-test is a skill for Codex from alexhvastovich/playwright-ai-pom-starter. It costs 78 tokens per session (1,066 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for creating and maintaining Playwright UI tests, which automatically check how a website works in a browser. It covers planning a user flow, generating one scenario, validating it, and investigating reproducible failures.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan new browser flows, generate tests, update locators, or investigate failing UI tests. It uses page objects, which keep browser actions and selectors in organized classes.
Why use it?
It gives browser tests a consistent structure and review process, reducing the risk of generated tests that do not fit the repository or reliably check the intended behavior.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

add-playwright-test scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 105 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Add a Playwright test

Follow the repository architecture. Treat generated code as a draft until it passes the same checks as human-written code.

Select the agent

  • Use playwright_test_planner to explore a flow and save a plan in specs/.
  • Use playwright_test_generator to implement one scenario from that plan.
  • Use playwright_test_healer only after a reproducible test failure.

For a complete new flow, run planner, then generator, then the validation gate. Invoke healer only if the gate fails for test-code reasons.

Complete flow

  1. Read AGENTS.md and the relevant file in specs/.
  2. Ask playwright_test_planner to explore the flow through seeds/login.seed.spec.ts and save a precise Markdown plan.
  3. Review the plan for intent, independence, data safety, and expected results.
  4. Use $name-playwright-test to assign the scenario's stable test case ID, title, and file name.
  5. Ask playwright_test_generator to implement one named scenario from the plan while obeying the POM and locator contracts below.
  6. Move selectors and browser actions into a class in pages/.
  7. Add its lazy getter to pages/ManagePage.ts.
  8. Keep fixture wiring in fixtures/pom.fixture.ts.
  9. Keep the generated test behavior-focused and import from that fixture.
  10. Run the narrow test, then npm test.
  11. If a test fails, inspect the trace, screenshot, DOM, and product behavior.
  12. Invoke playwright_test_healer only when evidence identifies test code as the responsible layer. Re-run the narrow test and full gate afterward.

Test-id convention

  • Use data-testid as the product attribute and getByTestId() in Playwright.
  • Name IDs by stable meaning, not layout: btn-login, input-email, nav-user-menu, error-login.
  • Use lowercase kebab-case with an element-role prefix.
  • Do not encode styling, position, generated IDs, or changing copy.
  • Do not add a test ID when getByRole() or getByLabel() is already unique and stable.
  • Keep every locator in a Page Object. Tests never call page.locator().

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
