playwright-test
Generate robust, zero-flakiness Playwright E2E tests following OpenMetadata patterns. Creates comprehensive test files with proper waits, API validation, multi-role permissions, and complete entity lifecycle management.
Best use case
playwright-test is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Generate robust, zero-flakiness Playwright E2E tests following OpenMetadata patterns. Creates comprehensive test files with proper waits, API validation, multi-role permissions, and complete entity lifecycle management.
Teams using playwright-test should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Playwright Test Generator - OpenMetadata Generate production-ready, zero-flakiness Playwright tests following OpenMetadata conventions. ## Usage ``` /playwright-test Feature: <feature name> Category: <Features|Pages|Flow|VersionPages> Entity: <Table|Dashboard|Pipeline|Topic|Database|User|Team|Glossary|Other> Domain: <Governance|Discovery|Platform|Observability|Integration> Scenarios: - <scenario 1 description> - <scenario 2 description> - <scenario 3 description> Roles: <admin|dataConsumer|dataSteward|owner> (optional, defaults to admin) ``` ## Quick Example ``` /playwright-test Feature: Data Quality Rules Category: Features Entity: Table Domain: Observability Scenarios: - Admin can create and configure data quality rules - Data consumer can view test results but not edit rules - Test results are persisted after page reload Roles: admin, dataConsumer ``` --- ## Instructions ### Step 1: Read the Handbook FIRST **CRITICAL**: Before generating any tests, read and apply ALL patterns from: ``` openmetadata-ui/src/main/resources/ui/playwright/PLAYWRIGHT_DEVELOPER_HANDBOOK.md ``` The handbook contains: - Testing philosophy (user-centric, behavior-focused) - Anti-flakiness patterns (the :visible selector chain pattern, etc.) - Test timeout strategies (test.slow() vs test.setTimeout()) - Common test patterns (form submission, dropdowns, multi-role testing) - Locator priority guidelines - Support classes reference - Domain tags - Validation checklist **Apply ALL handbook principles before proceeding.** --- ### Step 2: Generate Test Using Handbook Template Use the **Test File Structure Template** from the handbook. It includes: - Proper imports (performAdminLogin, entity classes, utilities) - test.describe with domain tags - beforeAll/afterAll for entity lifecycle via API - test.slow() for timeout handling - test.step() for clear organization - API response validation pattern --- ### Step 3: Apply Common Test Patterns from Handbook Reference the **Common Test Patterns** section for: - Form submission with API validation - Dropdown selection (with :visible chain pattern) - Multi-role permission testing - Data persistence verification - Navigation patterns - Search and filter patterns --- ### Step 4: Validate Against Handbook Checklist Before returning the generated test, verify ALL items from the handbook's **Validation Checklist**: - ✅ Structure & Organization (test.step, domain tags, imports, beforeAll/afterAll) - ✅ Anti-Flakiness (no waitForTimeout, no networkidle, no force: true, no positional selectors, no stored :visible locators) - ✅ API & Network (waitForResponse before actions, status code validation) - ✅ Waits & Assertions (waitForAllLoadersToDisappear, semantic locators, proper assertions) - ✅ Coverage & Roles (multi-role tests, data persistence, error handling) --- ## Key Reminders **All patterns, rules, and best practices are in the handbook.** Read and apply the handbook sections in order: 1. **Anti-Flakiness Patterns** (CRITICAL - #1 cause of flaky tests) 2. **Test File Structure Template** (for proper test structure) 3. **Common Test Patterns** (for specific scenarios) 4. **Validation Checklist** (before returning generated test) --- ## Final Notes - Generate **production-ready** tests that pass 10/10 times - Follow ALL patterns from the handbook exactly - No comments for obvious code (e.g., `// Create entity` before `entity.create()`) - Test independence - each test runs in any order - Reference examples: `playwright/e2e/Pages/DataContractInheritance.spec.ts`, `playwright/e2e/Features/Table.spec.ts` **Generate tests that are production-ready, maintainable, and zero-flakiness by following the handbook patterns exactly.**
