Talk Description

In an era where test automation and AI are reshaping the software development landscape, my talk, "Enhancing Test Automation with Playwright and AI: A Journey of Innovation," offers a dive into my personal evolution within this dynamic space. As an Automation Engineer with over 15 years in the tech industry, I've witnessed first-hand the transformative power of cutting-edge technologies. My recent foray into using Playwright, coupled with AI, marked a pivotal shift in my approach to test automation, programming language transitions, and debugging methodologies.

This presentation will chart the course of my journey from initial experimentation with Playwright for Chrome extension testing to the strategic integration of AI tools like ChatGPT. I'll share how these technologies revolutionized my workflow, from effortlessly transitioning code snippets between JavaScript and TypeScript to generating robust test case scenarios and navigating complex debugging scenarios with unprecedented ease. The focus will not only be on the technicalities but also on the practical implementation and the tangible benefits observed in real-world projects.

Beyond personal insights, the session aims to equip participants with actionable strategies and innovative approaches to leverage Playwright and AI in their test automation endeavours. By dissecting challenges, solutions, and learnings, the talk will inspire attendees to explore new horizons in automation, enhancing their skill set and propelling their projects forward in the rapidly evolving digital landscape.

What you’ll learn

By the end of this talk, you'll be able to:

  • Gain insights into the transition process from traditional automation frameworks to Playwright, including the challenges and benefits encountered
  • Learn how AI tools, particularly ChatGPT, can be utilized for enhancing test case generation, facilitating language transitions, and streamlining debugging processes in test automation
  • Discover actionable strategies for integrating Playwright and AI into your testing workflows, enhancing efficiency, and effectiveness based on real-world project examples
  • Understand the role of AI in easing the transition between programming languages within the context of test automation, making your scripts more robust and maintainable
