When your test framework fights back
Flaky locators and scattered waits turn test maintenance into a full-time job. Teams end up babysitting infrastructure instead of writing actual tests. Playwright handles this with auto-waiting, isolated browser contexts, and a single framework for UI and API coverage. Curotec builds stable Playwright suites from day one by configuring the architecture your CI pipeline needs.
Our capabilities include:
- End-to-end suite architecture and configuration
- Selenium-to-Playwright migration and rewrite
- Cross-browser and mobile emulation setup
- CI pipeline integration with parallel execution
- Flaky run diagnosis using Trace Viewer and reporting
- API and UI unification in a single framework
Who we support
We build Playwright testing infrastructure for engineering teams that need stable browser automation — whether you’re migrating off Selenium, standing up E2E coverage for the first time, or fixing a CI pipeline that can’t run clean.
Teams Replacing Fragile Selenium Suites
Your Selenium tests pass locally but fail in CI. Retries, sleep statements, and manual waits haven't fixed it. You need a framework where auto-waiting and browser contexts handle the stability problems your team has been patching around for years.
SaaS Teams Building Test Infra from Scratch
Shipping features faster than you can add coverage? Your current end-to-end setup might be a collection of ad-hoc scripts that no one owns. You need an automation architecture designed for your CI pipeline from day one — one that's cross-browser, parallelized, and easy for the whole team to maintain.
Engineering Leads Stabilizing CI Pipelines
Your deploys are blocked by test failures that aren’t real bugs. Flaky runs waste time and hurt confidence in automation. You need an audit of your Playwright setup, fixes for the issues, and reliable reporting to restore trust in the results.

Why Choose Curotec for Playwright Testing?
Playwright’s API is simple enough for any engineer to write a spec. The challenge is building a reliable, scalable suite — maintaining page objects, configuring browser contexts to avoid state leaks, and setting up parallel execution in CI to prevent runs from blocking deploys. Our engineers have done this across codebases with hundreds of Playwright specs in GitHub Actions, CircleCI, and Jenkins.

What runs under our Playwright test suites
Playwright Core & Configuration
Curotec sets up the Playwright framework, fixtures, and project settings to ensure your suite scales and stays maintainable.
- Playwright Test – Built-in runner with parallel workers, isolation, and retry logic configured per environment and browser target
- playwright.config.ts – Central configuration file defining projects, browser targets, base URLs, timeouts, and reporter settings per environment
- Fixtures – Reusable setup and teardown logic scoped to individual specs, workers, or the full suite for auth state, database seeding, and shared context
- Page Object Model – Abstraction layer that isolates selectors and interactions from spec logic so UI changes don’t break every file
- Expect API – Web-first assertions with auto-retry that poll the DOM until conditions are met instead of relying on static waits
- Projects – Named configuration sets that let a single suite run against Chromium, Firefox, WebKit, and mobile viewports in one command
Test Authoring & Debugging Tools
Your team writes and debugs faster with Playwright’s built-in code generation, inspection, and trace analysis tools.
- Codegen – Records browser actions and generates runnable code in TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, or .NET from real user interactions
- Trace Viewer – Post-mortem debugging tool that replays execution with DOM snapshots, network logs, console output, and action timelines
- UI Mode – Interactive explorer with time-travel debugging that lets engineers watch, rerun, and step through specs visually
- Playwright Inspector – Step-through debugger for live runs with selector generation, click point highlighting, and action logging
- VS Code Extension – Run, debug, and record specs directly inside the editor with inline error reporting and breakpoint support
- Locator Strategies – Produces selectors based on accessibility roles, text content, and data attributes instead of brittle CSS paths
CI/CD Integration & Parallel Execution
Running Playwright in CI means configuring workers, sharding, and artifact storage so results are fast and reproducible.
- GitHub Actions – Workflow configuration with Playwright’s official action, parallel sharding across runners, and trace artifact uploads
- CircleCI – Parallelism configuration with splitting, browser caching, and Playwright container images for consistent execution
- Jenkins – Pipeline stages for installing browsers, running sharded suites, and publishing HTML reports as build artifacts
- GitLab CI – YAML pipeline configuration with Playwright Docker images, parallel jobs, and merge request quality gates
- Docker – Containerized execution using Playwright’s official images with pre-installed browsers for reproducible CI runs
- Sharding – Distribution across multiple CI machines that splits the suite by file or count to cut total run time
Reporting & Analysis
Structured reporting turns raw output into pass/fail trends, failure traces, and coverage data your team actually reviews.
- HTML Reporter – Default Playwright report with filterable results, failure screenshots, and trace file links served as a static site
- Allure Reporter – Integration with Allure for historical trend analysis, categorization, and shareable dashboards across teams
- JUnit Reporter – XML output compatible with CI platforms that parse results into build summaries and failure notifications
- JSON Reporter – Machine-readable output for custom dashboards, Slack notifications, and integration with management platforms
- Blob Reporter – Merges sharded results from multiple CI machines into a single unified report for the full suite
- Custom Reporters – Playwright’s reporter API for building integrations with internal tools, databases, or alerting systems
API & Network Testing
Playwright handles API requests and network interception natively, so your team validates backend behavior without a separate tool.
- APIRequestContext – Send HTTP requests directly from specs to validate endpoints, seed data, or verify server responses alongside browser checks
- Route Interception – Mock or modify network requests in flight to cover error states, loading behavior, and edge cases without changing backend code
- HAR Recording – Capture full network traffic during runs and replay it for deterministic checks that don’t depend on live services
- Request Assertions – Validate response status codes, headers, and body content with Playwright’s assertion library inside the same flow
- Authentication API – Store and reuse auth state across specs through the storage state API so login flows run once instead of every time
- Mock Service Worker – Intercept requests at the network layer to simulate third-party APIs, payment gateways, and external service responses
Cross-Browser & Device Coverage
Every Playwright project targets specific browsers and device profiles that match your actual user base and traffic patterns.
- Chromium – Runs against Chrome and Edge rendering with full DevTools protocol access for debugging and performance profiling
- WebKit – Safari engine validation that catches rendering, font, and layout differences specific to Apple’s browser on macOS and iOS
- Firefox – Gecko engine coverage that verifies behavior in Mozilla’s browser including differences in event handling and CSS support
- Mobile Emulation – Device profiles for iPhone, Pixel, and tablet viewports with touch events, geolocation, and network throttling
- Viewport & Locale Configuration – Runs at specific screen sizes, languages, time zones, and color schemes to validate internationalization
- Selenium Grid Compatibility – Run Playwright suites on cloud grids like BrowserStack or Sauce Labs when legacy browser coverage is required
FAQs about our Playwright testing services
How do you migrate a Selenium suite to Playwright?
We map your existing Selenium suite to Playwright equivalents, converting locators, waits, and assertions file by file. Coverage runs in parallel throughout the migration so nothing drops while we cut over.
Can Playwright replace our API testing tools?
Playwright handles HTTP requests natively alongside browser checks. We configure APIRequestContext for endpoint validation, seed data setup, and response verification so your team can retire separate tools like Postman.
How do you handle flaky runs in CI?
We use Trace Viewer to capture DOM snapshots, network logs, and action timelines from failed runs. That pinpoints whether the flake is a timing issue, state leak, or environment problem, and we fix the root cause.
What does your Playwright CI setup include?
We configure parallel workers, sharding across machines, browser caching, and artifact storage for traces and screenshots. Quality gates block merges when runs fail so broken code doesn’t reach production.
How do you structure specs for large codebases?
We use the Page Object Model to separate selectors from spec logic, scoped fixtures for shared state, and project-level configuration so the suite stays organized as your team adds coverage across features.
Do your engineers work inside our repository?
Yes. We commit directly to your repo, follow your branching strategy, and write tests that match your team’s conventions. The goal is a test suite your engineers maintain after our engagement ends.
