What is Playwright Testing?

Playwright is a Node.Js library that automates browsers using the same API for all three (Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit). As a result, Playwright enables cross-browser automation that is evergreen, capable, reliable, and fast. Playwright can also access the REST API of your application to help you perform API testing.

How can I speed up my Playwright test?

You can leverage the LambdaTest cloud to accelerate your Playwright test execution. LambdaTest allows you to run Playwright tests in parallel over a cloud based infrastructure that lets you expand test and browser coverage, ultimately speeding up the release cycle.
