Learn how to configure Playwright to use Jest as its test runner and use TypeScript for writing tests. Also covers how to debug tests in VS Code

Playwright is a newish end-to-end cross-browser testing tool from Microsoft. I usually use Cypress for these kinds of tests on SPAs, but Playwright is quickly gaining traction, so I thought it was time to give it a try.

We’ll cover how to get up and running with Playwright using Jest as the test runner and how to set up the project so that we can use TypeScript to write the tests. Towards the end of the post, we’ll cover how to debug tests in VS Code.
