Debbie O'Brien | End to End testing with Playwright

We need to make sure we test complete user flows and with Playwright we can easily in minutes record a test and run that test and visually see what is happening giving us a really cool developer experience. In this talk lets’ take a look at how to test across iframes and different browser contexts by testing the user flow of the Stackblitz website, setting up a Vite project in Stackblitz, modifying the code and sharing it so others can open and interact with it. Let’s get testing. Debbie has over 10 years experience in Frontend development. She has worked as a Tech Lead and consultant for many important clients with various technologies and often with a strong focus on performance, static sites and testing. She has lead teams both in house and remotely as well as giving workshops and training. She has many years of experience as a mentor for online learning platforms, Treehouse and Open Classrooms as well as the Google Developer Expert program. Debbie is a Google Developer Expert in web technologies, GitHub Star Alumni and Cloudinary Media Developer Expert, a Nuxt Ambassador and previous Microsoft Most Valuable Professional in developer technologies. Debbie loves to work in Open Source and is currently trying to convince the world to write more tests, especially end to end tests with Playwright. She believes that with more tests, you have less bugs and therefore more time to do sport. When she is not in front of a computer you can find her running and cycling all over the island of Mallorca in Spain.
