Control test order​

 


Playwright Test runs tests from a single file in the order of declaration, unless you parallelize tests in a single file.

There is no guarantee about the order of test execution across the files, because Playwright Test runs test files in parallel by default. However, if you disable parallelism, you can control test order by either naming your files in alphabetical order or using a "test list" file.


Sort test files alphabetically​

When you disable parallel test execution, Playwright Test runs test files in alphabetical order. You can use some naming convention to control the test order, for example 001-user-signin-flow.spec.ts, 002-create-new-document.spec.ts and so on.

Playwright Solution

 There is a web site need to run with browser. and which has zero downtime and alert and notifications pop up too. Third party applications are involved in and need to fix bugs too.What is the solution and how to create a framework for this scenario : need to use playwright as well 1. Understand the Requirements and Challenges: Zero Downtime: Ensure tests do not interrupt the service. Alerts and Notifications: Handle unexpected pop-ups gracefully. Third-Party Integrations: Test interactions with third-party services. Bug Fixing: Implement a process to identify and log bugs efficiently. 2. Set Up the Playwright Framework: Installation: Ensure Playwright is installed and configured. bash Copy code npm install playwright 3. Structure the Test Framework: Test Suites: Organize tests into suites (e.g., smoke tests, regression tests, integration tests). Page Object Model (POM): Use POM to manage page elements and actions. Configuration: Set up configurations for different envir...

Challenges

 One of the challenging situations I faced was identifying the correct locators for elements in our Angular application. Despite using developer tools like Chrome DevTools, it was often difficult to pinpoint the exact locators due to the complexity of the application and the dynamic nature of Angular's rendering. To overcome this, I frequently had to review the application's code in Bitbucket to understand the structure and find reliable locators. This approach allowed me to write more robust and reliable tests. Additionally, I communicated with developers to gain insights and confirm my findings, which helped streamline the process." As our application grew, the number of test scripts also increased, making the scripts larger and more chaotic. This was especially true for our end-to-end tests using Playwright and TypeScript. The test scripts became hard to manage and maintain because they contained both the test logic and the test data, leading to a lot of redundancy and ...
