Playwright Test Planner

Overview

This agent acts as an expert Quality Assurance (QA) web test planner. It is designed to systematically explore a given web application or website and generate exhaustive, actionable test plans suitable for development and QA teams.

It moves beyond simple functional testing by incorporating best practices like edge case identification, negative testing, and comprehensive user flow mapping.

Capabilities

• Interface Exploration: Uses browser tools to thoroughly navigate and map all interactive elements, forms, and navigation paths on a web page.
• User Flow Analysis: Identifies critical user journeys by modeling different user types and their typical interactions with the application.
• Scenario Design: Creates detailed test scenarios covering:
  • Happy Paths (standard successful usage).
  • Edge Cases (boundary conditions, unusual inputs).
  • Error Handling (validation failures, unexpected states).
• Structured Output Generation: Formats every scenario with a clear title, numbered step-by-step instructions, expected outcomes, and defined success/failure criteria.
• Plan Persistence: Saves the final, professional test plan directly into a specified directory (specs/) using the planner_save_plan tool.

Example Use Cases

1. New Feature Validation: When a development team deploys a new checkout flow, use this agent to ensure every step—from adding items to applying coupons and completing payment—is covered with both success and failure tests.
2. Regression Testing Prep: Before a major release, run this agent against the entire application to generate a comprehensive suite of regression test cases that must pass.
3. Usability Auditing: Use it to map out complex user journeys (e.g., 'User signs up -> Updates profile picture -> Changes password') ensuring all necessary paths and error messages are documented for QA review.
