agentic-browser-testing

From the author

Goal-driven E2E testing where a browser agent (Playwright MCP / computer-use) reads a natural-language goal and explores the app via the accessibility tree to assert outcomes — no pre-written script. Covers when intent-driven beats scripted, making agent runs repeatable and bounded (pinned model, temperature 0, seeded data, bounded steps, explicit success assertion, snapshot-not-pixel), cost/latency control, the accessibility-tree-first interaction model, CI gating, and graduating a stable run into a scripted Playwright test. Use when: "agentic browser test," "goal-driven browser test," "let an agent explore the app," "natural-language E2E," "browser agent smoke test," "Playwright MCP test." Not for: Writing/maintaining deterministic scripted Playwright tests — that is playwright-automation. Testing your product's OWN LLM features — that is ai-system-testing.
