FAQ
Questions about hiring a Senior QA & Test Automation Architect
Answered the way we would on a call. If yours isn’t here, send it — we reply within one business day.
Playwright drives Chromium, Firefox and WebKit, waits for elements automatically, runs tests in parallel and records traces on failure. That removes much of the flakiness that makes teams stop trusting end-to-end suites.
They write tests alongside feature work, so new behavior arrives with coverage, and they keep the suite fast enough that developers run it before every merge.
