## What it does

pw adds nine skills to Claude that turn a plain sentence into a working Playwright test. `/pw:generate` takes a user story, a URL or a component name and writes the spec, while `/pw:pw-init` inspects your project, detects the framework and lays down config, CI and a first test. For code you already have, `/pw:pw-review` and `/pw:coverage` show anti-patterns and gaps.

Three subagents handle the harder parts: test-architect plans strategy for complex apps, test-debugger works through a flaky-test taxonomy, migration-planner writes a file-by-file plan for leaving Cypress or Selenium. Add 55 templates across auth, CRUD, checkout, search, forms, dashboards, API and accessibility. Hooks validate quality as you write `*.spec.ts` files and detect Playwright projects when a session starts.

The TestRail and BrowserStack integrations ship with the plugin but are not auto-registered — they were pulled from `.mcp.json` because the servers failed to connect for everyone without bundled `node_modules`. Environment variables alone won't do it: `/pw:testrail` and `/pw:browserstack` return "tool not found" until you run `npm install` inside `integrations/<name>-mcp` and register the server in your own MCP config. Worth knowing before you promise the team a TestRail sync.

## Requirements
- Works with: Playwright

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Plugin marketplace**
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add alirezarezvani/claude-skills
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install pw@claude-code-skills
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install playwright-pro@claude-community
```

## When to use it
- generate an e2e test from a user story
- set up Playwright in an existing project with CI
- diagnose and fix a flaky test
- audit existing specs for anti-patterns and coverage gaps
- convert a Cypress or Selenium suite to Playwright

## Example prompts
- /pw:pw-init
- /pw:generate "user can log in"
- /pw:fix checkout.spec.ts

# Playwright Pro

> Production-grade Playwright testing toolkit for AI coding agents.

Generate tests, fix flaky failures, and migrate from Cypress/Selenium — all from your AI agent. Optional TestRail/BrowserStack integrations are included but must be enabled manually (see [Integrations Setup](#integrations-setup)).

## Install

```bash
# Claude Code plugin
claude plugin install pw@claude-skills

# Or load directly
claude --plugin-dir ./engineering-team/playwright-pro
```

## Commands

| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
| `/pw:pw-init` | Set up Playwright in your project — detects framework, generates config, CI, first test |
| `/pw:generate <spec>` | Generate tests from a user story, URL, or component name |
| `/pw:pw-review` | Review existing tests for anti-patterns and coverage gaps |
| `/pw:fix <test>` | Diagnose and fix a failing or flaky test |
| `/pw:migrate` | Migrate from Cypress or Selenium to Playwright |
| `/pw:coverage` | Analyze what's tested vs. what's missing |
| `/pw:testrail` | Sync with TestRail — read cases, push results, create runs *(requires manual MCP setup — see [Integrations Setup](#integrations-setup))* |
| `/pw:browserstack` | Run tests on BrowserStack, pull cross-browser reports *(requires manual MCP setup — see [Integrations Setup](#integrations-setup))* |
| `/pw:report` | Generate a test report in your preferred format |

## Quick Start

```bash
# In Claude Code:
/pw:pw-init                              # Set up Playwright
/pw:generate "user can log in"        # Generate your first test
# Tests are auto-validated by hooks — no extra steps
```

## What's Inside

### 9 Skills

Slash commands that turn natural language into production-ready Playwright tests. Each skill leverages Claude Code's built-in capabilities (`/batch` for parallel work, `Explore` for codebase analysis, `/debug` for trace inspection).

### 3 Specialized Agents

- **test-architect** — Plans test strategy for complex applications
- **test-debugger** — Diagnoses flaky tests using a systematic taxonomy
- **migration-planner** — Creates file-by-file migration plans from Cypress/Selenium

### 55 Test Templates

Ready-to-use, parametrizable templates covering:

| Category | Count | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Authentication | 8 | Login, logout, SSO, MFA, password reset, RBAC |
| CRUD | 6 | Create, read, update, delete, bulk ops |
| Checkout | 6 | Cart, payment, coupon, order history |
| Search | 5 | Basic search, filters, sorting, pagination |
| Forms | 6 | Multi-step, validation, file upload |
| Dashboard | 5 | Data loading, charts, export |
| Settings | 4 | Profile, password, notifications |
| Onboarding | 4 | Registration, email verify, welcome tour |
| Notifications | 3 | In-app, toast, notification center |
| API | 5 | REST CRUD, GraphQL, error handling |
| Accessibility | 3 | Keyboard nav, screen reader, contrast |

### 2 MCP Integrations (optional — not auto-registered, see [Integrations Setup](#integrations-setup))

- **TestRail** — Read test cases, create runs, push pass/fail results
- **BrowserStack** — Trigger cross-browser runs, pull session reports with video/screenshots

### Smart Hooks

- Auto-validates test quality when you write `*.spec.ts` files
- Auto-detects Playwright projects on session start
- Zero configuration required

## Integrations Setup

> **Note (issue #978):** the TestRail and BrowserStack MCP servers are **not
> auto-registered** — they were removed from the plugin's `.mcp.json` because they
> failed to connect for every user (no bundled `node_modules`). Setting the env
> vars below is **not** enough on its own; `/pw:testrail` and `/pw:browserstack`
> will fail with "tool not found" until you enable the server manually
> (`cd integrations/<name>-mcp && npm install`, then register it in your own
> user/project MCP config). See the **Integrations** section of `CLAUDE.md`.

### TestRail (Optional)

Set environment variables:

```bash
export TESTRAIL_URL="https://your-instance.testrail.io"
export TESTRAIL_USER="your@email.com"
export TESTRAIL_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```
