In this moment: Software Testing Live
A printscreen taken from my VScode at the end of this evenings session, which provided an introduction to using Playwright Agents and Claude code to create a "happy path" guest checkout test.

Something that was pointed out, is that I don't jump straight in to prompting for a final-state test. Instead, I try to feed the AI my thought processes and commit each step of my workings out so that PR reviewers are able to provide ACE feedback; feedback that is (A) actionable, (C) constructive and (E) example-led, especially as AI enables PR diffs to be larger than ever!
